About Portable
Our mission is to seek out areas of social need and policy failure and make transformational change using design and technology. We believe that government, organisations and businesses can be forces for good. But there's a gap in their understanding of, and ability to meet, the expectations of those in need of positive change.

Ideally you've led on technical design and implementation of Silverstripe, including custom integrations.
You may have also had experience in frontend frameworks such as React or Svelte for implementing highly interactive features as part of your full stack applications, or have configured secure deployment pipelines to AWS and Docker environments.
