With senior full-stack TypeScript/React/Node.js experience built entirely within UK transport tech at VivaCity Labs, and a proven record of dramatic frontend performance gains, this candidate maps directly onto the senior fullstack profiles Tracsis hires for its transport data platform work, and the Rochester location removes any relocation friction entirely.

Chris,
I have a senior Full Stack Developer who has spent the last eight years at VivaCity Labs building within UK smart cities and transport tech, which maps closely onto the kind of profiles Tracsis typically needs for its transport data platform work.
The stack is TypeScript, React, Next.js, Node.js, Go and Kubernetes. On the frontend performance side, he rewrote a React application that brought initial load time down from over 30 seconds to under one second with minimal regressions, the sort of outcome that tends to matter when you are scaling a data-heavy platform.
He is Rochester-based, so there is no relocation conversation to navigate.
Salary expectation is on the CV. I have not shared your details with him yet. If the profile looks relevant, I am happy to send it over and we can go from there.

With senior full-stack experience across TypeScript, React and Go at VivaCity Labs , a direct competitor in UK intelligent traffic and smart city analytics , and a proven track record of dramatic front-end performance gains, this candidate could step into a technically demanding role at Yunex Traffic with near-zero domain ramp-up time, and Rochester-based hybrid working is an exact location match.

Hi Uzor,
I'm working with a Senior Full Stack Developer who has spent eight years building across TypeScript, React, Go, Next.js, Node.js and Kubernetes, with the last stretch at VivaCity Labs delivering intelligent traffic and smart city analytics products. Given VivaCity's overlap with Yunex Traffic in UK smart city infrastructure, the domain knowledge transfers directly.
The performance work stands out in particular. He rebuilt a React application that had been loading in over 30 seconds, bringing it down to sub-one second with minimal regressions. That kind of front-end engineering judgement is harder to find than the stack alone suggests.
He is based in Rochester, which lines up with your hybrid setup, and his salary expectations are on the CV rather than in this note.
Worth a look? I can send the full CV straight over if so.

Monzo's well-documented Go and Kubernetes backend culture is a strong stack match for this candidate's core strengths, and their proven React performance work (cutting load times from 30 seconds to sub-1 second) is directly relevant to the scale of frontend challenges a fintech unicorn faces, though the transport tech domain background means a deliberate pivot to financial services would need to b
Day 0 email · Senior Full Stack – Go/K8s/React, strong performance track record
Thomas,
I represent a senior Full Stack Developer with eight years' experience, currently at VivaCity Labs building production systems in TypeScript, React, Next.js, Go, Node.js and Kubernetes.
The reason I thought of Monzo specifically: your Go and Kubernetes backend culture is a genuine fit for where this person has been working at depth, not a surface-level keyword match. On the frontend side, they recently rewrote a React application that had a 30-plus second initial load and brought it down to sub-one second with minimal regressions. That kind of performance discipline tends to matter at fintech scale.
The honest caveat is that their background is in smart cities and transport tech, so financial services would be a deliberate move for them. Worth a conversation if you are open to domain pivots when the fundamentals are strong.
Happy to send a CV if it is worth a look.
