Rewards platform for UK frontline workers with 15,000+ retail partners
Blue Light Card operates a member rewards marketplace serving millions across the UK with discounts, events, and exclusive access. The tech stack—React, Next.js, TypeScript, AWS Lambda, and Serverless—reveals a modern, cloud-native platform built for scale. Active projects around replatforming to serverless, a greenfield app experience, and expansion beyond the savings marketplace signal architectural modernization paired with business model evolution; the leadership-weighted hiring mix (10 senior, 2 director roles across 13 open positions) indicates they're scaling senior technical and product leadership to navigate this transition.
