JavaScript Developer, React focused, Product Engineer (Contract) | React, TypeScript, Node.js, AWS | Product-Led Delivery | £400-450/day | Outside IR35 | Fully Remote (UK) | 6-Month Contract

We’re hiring multiple Senior Product Engineers (contractors) with strong frontend or full-stack capabilities to join a large-scale public sector transformation programme. This role focuses on building modern, user-centric digital products as part of cross-functional teams spanning product, design, and engineering. You’ll be working on high-impact platforms, delivering intuitive, scalable web applications used by a wide range of users. This is a 6-month initial contract, ideal for engineers who combine strong frontend expertise with product thinking and a pragmatic approach to delivery.

The Role | JavaScript Developer, React focused, Product Engineer (Contract) | React, TypeScript, Node.js, AWS | Product-Led Delivery | £400-450/day | Outside IR35 | Fully Remote (UK) | 6-Month Contract

This is a hands-on product engineering role with a strong focus on frontend development and user experience. You’ll be expected to:

• Build modern web applications using React and TypeScript
• Contribute across the stack where needed (Node.js backend services)
• Work closely with product managers and designers to deliver user-focused features
• Translate user needs into intuitive, high-quality UI experiences
• Apply modern engineering practices including TDD, CI/CD, and component-driven development
• Collaborate in cross-functional teams with a strong product mindset
• Continuously improve code quality, performance, and usability
• Contribute to design systems and scalable frontend architecture

This role suits engineers who are product-minded, collaborative, and care deeply about building high-quality user experiences.
