Front-End Developer (React Headless E-commerce)

Were a small experienced team responsible for the technology that underpins Bike Club - from the customer-facing website to the systems that power orders subscriptions and warehouse operations in the UK and Germany. We work across a modern headless stack (React/ Shopify Salesforce and internal services) collaborating closely with product UX and operations to deliver real-world impact.

Were currently going through a significant design and UX evolution of our website - moving toward a more progressive subscription-first experience that better reflects how we operate. This involves rethinking key journeys improving conversion and giving the team more flexibility to experiment and iterate quickly.

We take a pragmatic product-focused approach - balancing speed quality and maintainability - and are continuously evolving how we work including selectively adopting AI-assisted tools where they genuinely improve delivery or insight.

We are looking for someone comfortable thinking beyond implementation - contributing to product ideas and user outcomes.

We are based in London in our Spitalfields office where we work twice a week and the rest from home.
