About the Role:

Restroworks is searching for a hands-on engineer who can own our company website and content-platform stack end-to-end. You will build performant, SEO-friendly web experiences in Next.js, wire them to a modern headless CMS, and ensure every pixel ships fast and stays maintainable. You will collaborate daily with designers, product marketers, and DevOps to turn ideas into production code that scales globally.

Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, and ship new features in Next.js and React.
• Model and integrate dynamic content with a headless CMS (PayloadCMS preferred; Strapi, Sanity, or Contentful experience welcome).
• Develop and implement reusable UI components with a focus on performance, accessibility, and scalability.
• Work directly from Figma designs - extract specs and ensure pixel-perfect implementation.
• Collaborate with UI/UX designers to translate wireframes and mockups into high-quality web pages.
• Set up and optimize server-side rendering, static site generation, and API routes in Next.js.
• Manage CMS schemas and workflows, ensuring efficient data flow and content delivery.
• Implement responsive design for optimal performance across devices and browsers.
• Write clean, maintainable code and perform code reviews.
• Troubleshoot, debug, and optimize web applications for maximum speed and scalability.
• Stay current on Jamstack, edge rendering, and CMS tooling.

Requirements:

• 3-5 years of professional web development with React and Next.js.
• Demonstrable projects integrating a headless CMS into production sites.
• Strong command of JavaScript/TypeScript, HTML5, and modern CSS (CSS Modules/Tailwind).
• Solid understanding of responsive design, accessibility, and cross-browser compatibility.
• Experience in consuming and designing REST and/or GraphQL APIs.
• Comfort with Git workflows, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud hosting (Vercel, Netlify, AWS).
• Clear written and verbal communication; ability to partner with non-technical stakeholders.
• Knowledge of SEO optimization for server-side rendered websites.
• Experience in configuring Cloudflare and applying web-application security best practices.

Bonus Points:

• Prior work with PayloadCMS, multi-locale content models, or i18n routing.
• Familiarity with edge functions, image optimisation pipelines, and Vercel KV/Postgres.
• Experience securing web apps (OWASP, OAuth, JWT) and setting up automated tests (Playwright, Jest).
• Exposure to analytics, A/B testing, and growth-led experimentation.
