We're a highly collaborative bunch and recognise that teams, not individuals, ship products. • We're all responsible for the quality of the code and the success of the project • The drive to proactively identify and implement improvements to the way we work • Experience of managing and leading teams • Comfort leading sessions with senior clients • The instinct to recognise when something doesn't work • The ability to manage up and initiate difficult conversations with the project leadership team • Passion about helping to create an environment where people can do great work • Buckets of positivity and a "can do" attitude. • It would be an advantage if you have experience in building or prototyping any Web 3 digital experiences or have started exploring virtual digital experiences, and are aware of the challenges and techniques required to master them What makes us tick? At heart we're a strategy, design & innovation company and like to think we've played a big role in shaping the way brands connect with customers. From working with Steve Jobs on Apple's design language, through to reinventing Disney's Theme Parks, and even partnering with Porsche to turbocharge their products. Three beliefs underpin our culture & frame the type of people who excel at frog: • Being a challenger brand: a home for rebels and disruptors who want to do their best work • Making our mark: fanatically improving our world and having real impact by crafting things people love • A belief in the power of emotion and in not compromising on quality Equal Opportunities at frog frog and Capgemini Invent are Equal Opportunity Employers encouraging diversity in the workplace.

Our environment is very flexible, collaborative and varied in the projects we do - we aim for this to be the place where you can do your best work. Why you? You can • Work with various different web and mobile technologies. We don't have set technology stacks, although we lean towards cross-platform and open source frameworks, using cloud services that let us get stuff done quickly. Most of our recent work has used React, Node.js and Cloud serverless solutions. • Deliver value to our clients as quickly as possible. In technology terms, this means we get good quality code and platforms built and shipped and into customers hands as fast as we can. • Work within a multi-skilled technology team and as part of broader project teams alongside Designers, Product Managers, QA and Ops. • Actively participate in sessions and workshops alongside client teams and stakeholders • Proactively identify and implement improvements to the way we work, with the instinct to recognise when something isn't working. • Spend time reflecting on the work we're doing and how we're doing it. You'll be an integral part of the development team and will help define "what good looks like" for the work we do. We're an agile organisation with a strong culture of feedback and self-improvement. You have • A wealth of experience of software integration patterns, APIs and approaches to integrating with legacy systems. • Comfort advocating DevOps concepts and are expert in the tools and technologies that make them possible. • An eye for detail and passion to make what we create shine. Our products have got to be functionally correct and they've also got to look good • Passion and curiosity for the web and technology. We want to push ourselves and we want to stay current • Excellent communication and will enjoy working in teams. We're a highly collaborative bunch and recognise that teams, not individuals, ship products. • We're all responsible for the quality of the code and the success of the project • The drive to proactively identify and implement improvements to the way we work • Experience of managing and leading teams • Comfort leading sessions with senior clients • The instinct to recognise when something doesn't work • The ability to manage up and initiate difficult conversations with the project leadership team • Passion about helping to create an environment where people can do great work • Buckets of positivity and a "can do" attitude. • It would be an advantage if you have experience in building or prototyping any Web 3 digital experiences or have started exploring virtual digital experiences, and are aware of the challenges and techniques required to master them What makes us tick? At heart we're a strategy, design & innovation company and like to think we've played a big role in shaping the way brands connect with customers. From working with Steve Jobs on Apple's design language, through to reinventing Disney's Theme Parks, and even partnering with Porsche to turbocharge their products. Three beliefs underpin our culture & frame the type of people who excel at frog: • Being a challenger brand: a home for rebels and disruptors who want to do their best work • Making our mark: fanatically improving our world and having real impact by crafting things people love • A belief in the power of emotion and in not compromising on quality Equal Opportunities at frog frog and Capgemini Invent are Equal Opportunity Employers encouraging diversity in the workplace.
