Junior User Interface Developer

About the Role

We’re looking for a Junior User Interface Developer to join our software development team and help build beautiful, high-quality user interfaces for our web applications.


We are ORCA Service Technologies: just so you know, we are not your regular software firm. Our mission is to transform Facility Services with intuitive, data-driven software that delivers lasting value. ORCA is scaling up rapidly in 2025 by selling our modular business software into businesses around the UK, EU, GCC and APAC.


To support this growth, we are looking for a creative and detail-oriented Junior UI Developer with strong front-end development skills, a good eye for design, and a passion for clean, elegant code. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone looking to grow their career in a collaborative, fast-paced environment.

Build. Grow. Learn. Shape the Future of ORCA.

  • Modern Workspace: Based in our Maidenhead head office with free parking and modern facilities.
  • Holiday Allowance: Benefit from 28 days of holiday entitlement, plus bank holidays - that's 36 days per year!

  • Integrate front-end code with REST APIs and back-end services written in C#.
  • Improve existing user interfaces for ORCA’s web applications. Contribute ideas to improve UI/UX and overall product quality.
