Take development to a higher level, with your vision, code quality, and team coaching.

At Yellowtail, we build software every day that has a direct impact on people's financial lives. Whether it concerns pensions, mortgages, or government services: our solutions make the difference. Large organizations such as APG, Rabobank, and ABN Amro rely on our custom software. To continue delivering this quality, we are looking for a Lead Front-End Developer who takes the technical lead, guards the codebase, and raises his or her team to a higher level.

Your role: lead developer

As a Lead Front-End Developer, you actively participate in the code, but you are also the technical conscience of a product team or project teams. You guard the quality of the front-end code, ensure a consistent architecture, and support your colleagues in their growth.

Your main responsibilities

• Developing modern, scalable front-end solutions.

• Guarding the quality, structure, and maintainability of the codebase.

• Reviewing pull requests and improving the development process.

• Guiding less experienced developers (mentoring, pair programming, feedback).

• Implementing technical best practices and stimulating knowledge sharing within the team.

• Working in multidisciplinary teams with a lot of autonomy and responsibility.

So you are not a 'manager' from a distance, but a hands-on leader with a sharp eye for detail and a great heart for quality and team development.

You have been enjoying building complex front-end solutions for years, but you also derive satisfaction from helping others and improving teams. You get happy from a well-structured codebase, an elegant component structure, and from colleagues who perform their work with more confidence and knowledge thanks to your guidance.
