We are looking for an experienced, hands-on Full Stack Developer to join C5i's technology team on a strategic engagement with a leading global pharmaceutical client. The role sits within a central technology capability supporting R&D and Clinical Operations, building modern, scalable applications in React and Next.js, and using Generative AI / AI-assisted development ("vibe coding") to accelerate delivery.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop and maintain full-stack web applications supporting R&D and Clinical Operations use cases.
• Build responsive, scalable front-end interfaces using React and Next.js, and backend services and APIs using Next.js and related modern web technologies.
• Design integrations, authentication and application services around REST APIs. Work with enterprise data sources such as Databricks and Snowflake via pre-built queries, APIs or data services.
• Ingest basic SQL and develop a strong understanding of data/analytics concepts.
• Collaborate with C5i teams and client stakeholders to understand requirements and translate them into functional applications.
• Leverage GenAI-assisted development ("vibe coding") — including effective prompt engineering, context management and token optimization — to accelerate prototyping and delivery.
• Review, validate, debug and optimize AI-generated code to ensure it meets production-quality engineering standards.
• Participate across the full lifecycle: solution design, development, testing, deployment and production support.
• Troubleshoot application and integration issues across frontend, backend and data-consumption layers.
• Work in an agile environment with frequent/weekly releases, collaborating with globally distributed C5i and client teams, including teams in UK/European time zones.
• Quickly learn new technologies, frameworks and client-specific platforms as the technology capability evolves.
