As a UI Developer, you will be integral to creating user interfaces that are both visually appealing and highly functional, driving an exceptional user experience in Know Your Customer (KYC) processes. You will work closely with cross-functional teams, including product managers, designers, and backend developers, to design, develop, and implement innovative solutions that streamline business processes and enhance automation capabilities. The role offers flexibility to be based in either Glasgow or Knutsford, providing an excellent opportunity to contribute to a critical aspect of Barclays’ strategic initiatives in financial crime prevention.

Experience in developing responsive UI designs that function seamlessly across different devices and browsers is required. Knowledge of RESTful API integration, Micro Frontend Architecture, and front-end design patterns will be highly valued. Familiarity with version control systems like Git and Agile development methodologies is necessary. Additional skills that are advantageous include experience with DevOps tools such as Docker, Kubernetes, ELK, and App Dynamics, as well as an understanding of application performance optimization, accessibility standards, and scalable application architecture. Candidates should demonstrate excellent problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and the ability to work collaboratively in a fast-paced environment.

You will stay abreast of industry trends and contribute to the organization’s technology communities to promote innovation and continuous improvement. Ensuring adherence to secure coding practices to mitigate vulnerabilities and protect sensitive data is crucial. You will also implement effective unit testing, optimize application performance, and ensure compliance with accessibility and cross-browser compatibility standards. Additionally, you will support the migration and enhancement of existing applications, troubleshoot technical issues, and contribute to the overall success of the CDD platform development initiatives.
