Company Description
Hello! We're Teya.
Teya is a payment and software service provider, headquartered in London serving small, local businesses across Europe. Founded in 2019, we build easy to use, integrated tools that enable our members to accept payments and boost business performance.
At Teya we believe small, local businesses are the lifeblood of our communities.
We’re here because we don’t believe there’s a level playing field that gives small businesses with a fighting chance against the giants of the high street.
We’re here because we see banks and legacy service providers making things harder for them. We don’t think the best technology or the best service should be reserved for those with the biggest headquarters.
We’re here to fight for a future where small, local businesses can thrive, and to commit the same dedication they offer all of us.
Become a part of our story.
We’re looking for exceptional talent to join our mission. We offer a chance to create impact in a high-energy and connected culture, while benefiting from continuous learning opportunities, a supportive community which is proud to serve our mission, and comprehensive benefits.

You’ll work with cutting-edge technologies like React to build robust, high-quality solutions that are efficient and scalable. As a key contributor to our continuous delivery model, you will champion best practices around clean, performant code and ensure the code runs reliably on the Teya infrastructure.

You have a passion for delivering high-impact solutions that positively affect local businesses and communities.

Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, including designers, product managers, and other engineering teams, to provide technical leadership, set the direction for frontend architecture, and deliver innovative and high-quality user experiences.
Lead the enhancement of existing web applications and the creation of new features, focusing on improving operational efficiency, user engagement, and functionality, with a special emphasis on architecting solutions that scale efficiently within the merchant onboarding processes.
Mentor junior and mid-level developers through code reviews, constructive feedback, and knowledge-sharing, ensuring continuous improvement of the team’s coding practices, performance, and output quality.
Drive process improvements within the frontend development workflow, focusing on optimizing continuous integration, delivery, and deployment practices to ensure a streamlined, efficient, and reliable development pipeline.
Stay ahead of emerging technologies and trends, evaluating new tools and frameworks that can be integrated into the team’s workflows. Bring innovative ideas and solutions to solve complex challenges, ensuring the frontend development team stays at the forefront of industry advancements.
Take a leadership role in establishing frontend best practices and championing the adoption of high-quality standards, coding conventions, and testing practices across the team.

Strong problem-solving and debugging skills, with the ability to troubleshoot and resolve complex issues across multiple components and systems.
Experience in leading technical decision-making, mentoring junior team members, and fostering a collaborative work environment.
