Would you like to be part of a rapidly growing company where you have the opportunity to build tech that enables our transformation to a live service organisation?

Toca Boca and Central Tech are building a world-class tech platform to support our games, providing the foundation for scalable online experiences and robust internal tools. A key part of this is ensuring that our internal teams have a cohesive and efficient way to manage live operations, game content, and backend services.

To support this, we need a Senior Frontend Developer to lead the development of our internal portal. This role is critical in establishing a scalable frontend architecture that allows teams to build and deploy tools independently while maintaining consistency and usability. A shared component library, well-structured frontend framework, and best practices for UI development will be essential to improving efficiency, reducing duplication, and enabling teams to focus on their core work. Our frontend tech stack going forward consists of Next.js and components based on the Material UI component library.

Central Tech is responsible for defining and evolving our frontend tech stack, ensuring long-term maintainability, and improving developer experience across teams. This role will be instrumental in setting standards, driving frontend best practices, and ensuring our internal platforms can scale alongside our live service games.

This role is essential in shaping the future of our internal tools and ensuring our platform scales effectively to meet the needs of live service games.

Is this you?
