The Opportunity 

As a Senior Frontend Engineer, you will play a critical role in shaping the technical direction of our platform's user experience. You will lead the design and delivery of high-quality, performant, and scalable frontend systems — while collaborating closely with backend engineers to contribute across the full stack when needed. Beyond hands-on development, you will serve as a technical leader: guiding component architecture, mentoring engineers, and driving initiatives that raise the bar for UI quality and frontend engineering practices. This role requires strong ownership, deep problem-solving skills, and excellent communication. You will operate in a small, highly collaborative team where clarity, accountability, and impact matter. Hands-on experience building AI-powered features and using AI tools to improve engineering productivity is required. 

What You'll Do

Shape architecture: design scalable component systems, state management patterns, and frontend infrastructure that support long-term growth 

Mentor engineers: coach and support teammates through code reviews, design discussions, and problem-solving 

Own complex problems: drive investigation, debugging, and resolution of performance, rendering, and scalability challenges 

Drive execution: translate product and design requirements into clear technical designs and well-scoped Jira tickets 

Collaborate cross-functionally: work closely with product, design, and backend partners to deliver impactful, end-to-end solutions 

Establish best practices: improve standards around code quality, accessibility, performance, and reliability 

Champion improvement: introduce new tools, patterns, or approaches — including AI-enabled workflows — where they add real value

Deep expertise in React and modern JavaScript/TypeScript, including component architecture, state management, and frontend application design 

Experience using AI-assisted development tools such as Claude Code or Cursor to accelerate frontend development and improve engineering productivity 

Strong product and design sensibility, with a high bar for UI quality, usability, consistency, and craft 

Proven track record designing frontend architectures that scale across teams, products, and complex user workflows 

Strong knowledge of performance optimization, accessibility, responsive design, and modern frontend best practices 

Deep debugging and problem-solving skills in browser-based applications, with the ability to quickly identify and resolve issues across frontend-backend boundaries 

Proficiency with GitHub-based development workflows, including pull requests, code review practices, branching strategy, and CI/CD automation using GitHub Actions 

Ability to work effectively with backend systems and APIs, contributing where needed while keeping frontend excellence as the primary focus 

Experience as a technical leader who can drive frontend direction, mentor engineers, and raise the quality bar across the team
