Full Stack Web Developer (Placement)

At NugiTech, we build software that helps businesses compete globally and solve real‑world problems with innovative, future‑ready products. As a Fullstack Web Developer (Placement), you'll learn by pairing with an engineer, picking up front‑end tickets, building simple APIs, writing basic tests, and shipping features that real users rely on.

You’ll work from our Ealing (W5) London office on a hybrid schedule with supportive mentoring and code reviews.

Join the Product Engineering team (UK & Nigeria) and gain hands‑on experience building real features for real customers.

Required Technical Skills

• Create and consume REST APIs using Node.js or Java Spring Boot.

• Read and write to a database such as PostgreSQL or MongoDB.

• Fix bugs, refactor for readability, and add basic unit tests.

• Use Git/GitHub for branches, pull requests, and code reviews.

• Follow a simple agile workflow: pick a ticket, estimate effort, build the solution, and demonstrate the result.

• Collaborate with designers and product managers.

Nice to Have

• Experience with React, Express, and SQL/NoSQL basics.

• Familiarity with testing (Jest), Postman, and simple CI (GitHub Actions).

• Interest in accessibility (a11y) and performance (Lighthouse).

About You

• You are currently studying a computing/IT related degree and eligible for a placement year.

• You have knowledge of HTTP, JSON, REST, and Git.

• You are curious, humble, willing to learn, and communicate clearly.

Success Metrics (what good looks like)

• Complete 1–2 scoped tickets per sprint with mentoring and pass code review.

• Features meet acceptance criteria, basic test coverage, and a11y checks.

• Actively ask for feedback and show steady growth (git history, PR quality, fewer rework cycles).
