Sennen is hiring a Senior Front-End Developer - working with React - to design and implement UIs, dashboards and tools for our renewable energy management product utilising reusable components.

We're a clean tech company that makes operating renewables more cost effective, easier, and safer.

Our product processes real time IoT data from operating wind turbines and presents informative workflows, tables, graphics, reporting and data visualisations, and is used by fund managers, financiers, technicians, control room operators and engineers around the world.

Users interact with the Sennen system via our custom-built UI framework, this dynamically renders pages at runtime from dashboard definitions. These dashboards are made up of custom and open source React components as well as components built with the framework itself. Data is transported via socket.io from a multitude of databases and APIs.

You'll be building reusable software components to form the tools that our users, and developer colleagues, need. There's an ambitious roadmap, and lots of new stuff to build!

We offer as much autonomy as you're ready for. It's a flat structure team and Agile approach, in a fast-moving company with a supportive culture. We'll help you get to grips with the domain and its related design considerations, through being exposed to end users for feedback and through our own expertise.
