Our BuildCam monitoring system offers flexible, real-time site visibility for residential construction projects, supporting clients and stakeholders with 24/7 supervision and dependable performance.

We’re fast-paced, ever-evolving, and known for practical solutions and continuous improvement. We’re proud of our practical, hands-on culture where challenges are tackled together, and success is achieved through teamwork and shared expertise.

About The Role

We’re modernising an existing, fully operational PHP-based product and migrating the front-end into React. You’ll be taking established, functioning screens and rebuilding them into clean, modern, maintainable interfaces. This isn’t a design-to-code role — you’ll be defining the UI as you rebuild it. If you like ownership, fast iteration, and shipping real improvements weekly, you’ll fit perfectly. While this is primarily a front-end role, there is potential for the position to expand into full-stack work for applicants with an interest or background in PHP or backend concepts.

What You’ll Do

Rebuild existing PHP front-end screens into modern React + TypeScript

Design UI flows, layouts, and interactions without pixel-perfect Figma files

Produce quick prototypes to validate ideas before fully implementing

Work closely with the backend developer to integrate existing APIs

Iterate frequently on screens and components based on real user feedback

Contribute to a consistent design approach as we modernise the product

(Optional) Apply backend or PHP knowledge to assist with functionality, if you’re interested

Your work will directly improve speed, stability, and user experience for an already active platform.

Tech You’ll Use

React + TypeScript

Tailwind CSS

React Router

Vite/Webpack

APIs from a PHP backend

JSON/seeded data for rapid development and testing

(Bonus) PHP, backend fundamentals, or general full-stack awareness

We don’t expect mastery of everything, just the ability to pick things up quickly and deliver clean solutions.
