🎯 Hands-on design and implementation role

We’re working with a Manchester-based technology business in the cybersecurity space who are looking for a Front End Engineer with strong UX and product design experience to join their team.

This is not a pure UX role, and it is not a role where you’ll simply hand designs over to a large development team.

They’re looking for someone who enjoys owning the full journey from understanding user needs and shaping the interface, through to building production-ready front-end features.

You’ll be working on a complex B2B SaaS platform, helping turn technical cybersecurity and analytics capabilities into clear, intuitive and user-friendly customer experiences.

The ideal person will be comfortable acting as the main UX/design-focused person within a development team, while still being genuinely hands-on with the front-end build.

You’ll be involved in:

• Building customer-facing front-end features, dashboards and workflows
• Translating complex technical products into clean, usable interfaces
• Working closely with product, backend and platform engineers
• Creating wireframes, prototypes and user flows where needed
• Improving usability, accessibility and visual consistency
• Owning front-end implementation rather than just producing designs

They’re particularly interested in speaking with people who have:

• Strong front-end engineering experience with React, Vue or similar
• Good UX, UI or product design experience
• Experience working on SaaS, enterprise, analytics, cybersecurity or data-heavy products
• Confidence using tools such as Figma, Adobe XD or Sketch
• A strong eye for design, detail and usability
• Experience working closely with APIs and backend engineering teams
• The ability to operate independently as the design-minded engineer within a product team

The package includes:

• Salary up to £85,000
• Flexible working
• Private medical insurance
• Life assurance
• Employer pension contribution
• 25 days holiday, plus bank holidays and birthdays
• Social events
• Learning and development budget
• Lunch & Learn sessions
• Real progression opportunities within a growing technology business

This would suit someone who enjoys a true design and development mix, especially if you like being close to the product and want real ownership over how users interact with a platform.
