ZeroRisk - Senior Full Stack Engineer

• Design & Implementation • Produce outline designs for features and technical work, covering both front-end and back-end considerations, and see them through to implementation. • Take full ownership of technical work from design through to delivery, including testing and deployment. • Take on complex or ambiguous full-stack work, making sound design trade-offs across the stack (UI, API, data, infrastructure). • Full Stack Engineering • Work confidently across the stack: Java-based back-end services, Angular front-end applications, AWS infrastructure, and MySQL databases. • Write high-quality, well-tested, well-documented code across all layers of the stack. • Consider performance, security, and maintainability across the full path from database to UI. • Testing & Quality • Testing & Quality • Build and maintain automated code testing across the stack (unit, integration, and end-to-end as appropriate). • Performance and load testing knowledge is advantageous, and welcomed where it can be applied to harden critical paths. • Working with Technical Leads • Partner with Technical Leads to ensure designs and implementation follow good practice and align with department engineering standards (branching model, code review, testing strategy, documentation). • Seek review and input from Technical Leads on designs, particularly where decisions have cross-team or long-lasting impact. • Raise technical risks and trade-offs early and clearly, proposing options rather than just flagging problems. • Code Review • Code Review • Participate fully in the code review process, both giving and receiving reviews. • Provide thorough, constructive reviews that uphold department standards. • Peer Mentorship • Peer Mentorship • Offer informal technical guidance and support to peers where appropriate: sharing knowledge and helping unblock others. • Lead by example in code quality, testing, and documentation practices. • Delivery Contribution • Provide accurate technical input into estimation and backlog refinement for their own work. • Communicate progress, blockers, and risks proactively. • Ways of Working • Ways of Working • Own your work end-to-end. From outline design through to implementation, testing, and delivery. You are accountable for the full lifecycle of what you build. • Own your work end-to-end. • Full stack means full stack. Be genuinely comfortable moving between Angular front end, Java services, AWS infrastructure, and MySQL data layers. • Full stack means full stack. • Lean on Technical Leads, don't defer to them. They're a sounding board for good practice and harder design decisions, not a gate you need permission from for everyday work. • Lean on Technical Leads, don't defer to them. • Use code generation deliberately. Understand when generated or AI-assisted code speeds you up safely, and when it introduces risk that needs closer review. • Use code generation deliberately. • Test what you build. Automated testing isn't an afterthought: it's part of what "done" means, and performance under load is worth thinking about for anything on a critical path. • Test what you build. • Raise issues early. A technical risk surfaced early is manageable; the same risk surfaced late is a crisis. • Raise issues early.
