Web Developer

About the Web Developer Role at Twine

Twine is seeking a skilled freelance Web Developer for PlayerCompass, a project focused on building a modern, scalable MVP platform for academy and youth football players and their parents. This project encompasses both a public marketing website and an authenticated web application. The marketing site will serve to clearly communicate the platform’s value, credibility, and ease of use to parents, featuring sections for the value proposition, intended users, process steps, and example outputs. It requires a clean, modern, and accessible design optimized for both mobile and desktop, tailored for non-technical users.

The web application component will include user registration, a custom player intake questionnaire, API-based AI-powered career analysis (without custom ML development), career report output with PDF generation, Stripe integration for both one-off and subscription payments, and a fundamental admin dashboard. The chosen architecture must be scalable and thoroughly documented to facilitate future handovers and iterations. Essential experience includes developing SaaS or data-driven advisory platforms, coupled with a strong emphasis on delivering exceptional user experiences for parents and young players. The role demands clear, honest communication regarding technical trade-offs and project progress throughout the development lifecycle.

• Develop a basic admin dashboard for efficient platform management.
• Ensure a scalable, maintainable, and well-documented codebase.
• Provide recommendations on the optimal tech stack and architecture.
• Share relevant past projects and innovative ideas for platform differentiation.

Requirements

• Strong proficiency in web development frameworks (e.g., Next.js, Bubble, Webflow, or similar).
• Extensive experience integrating third-party APIs and payment gateways (Stripe).
• Ability to design intuitive, parent-friendly user experiences for both mobile and desktop.
• Excellent communication skills, emphasizing transparency and honest feedback.
• Strong attention to documentation and best practices for codebase handover.
