This is an opportunity to influence the evolution of our platform while fostering innovation and collaboration across global engineering teams.

Own the front-end architectural vision and guide implementation of scalable, performant, and maintainable web applications.
Lead the modernization effort of a native desktop client to a cloud-native, browser-based application using modern frontend frameworks.
Define architecture strategies around modular UI composition, including adoption of micro-frontend architectures.
Collaborate closely with product managers, backend architects, UX designers, and cross-functional teams to define and execute technical solutions aligned with business goals.
Ensure best practices in performance optimization, accessibility, testing, and maintainability across frontend codebases.
Drive innovation and productivity through evaluation and integration of AI-driven UI and DevOps tools.
Guide and mentor engineering teams on frontend design patterns, componentization, and reusable architecture principles.
Evaluate and recommend tools, frameworks, and technologies that align with our tech roadmap.
Maintain focus on customer experience, performance, and scalability.
Drive proof-of-concepts and prototyping of innovative solutions and tools.

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, engineering, or a related technical discipline.
10+ years of experience in software engineering with at least 5+ years in a frontend architecture or technical lead role.
Proven experience designing large-scale enterprise web applications using modern JavaScript frameworks, particularly React.
Strong grasp of frontend architecture principles including component-driven development, state management (e.g., Redux, Recoil), and micro-frontend patterns.
Experience transitioning monolithic or native applications to modern SPA (Single Page Application) architectures.
Proficiency in JavaScript, TypeScript, HTML5, CSS3, and modern frontend build tools.
Experience designing and integrating REST and streaming APIs.
Working knowledge of CI/CD pipelines and deployment strategies for frontend applications, including blue/green deployments.
Familiarity with application monitoring, logging, and performance tooling.
Cloud-native development experience, preferably within Azure environments; knowledge of authentication and identity federation models (OAuth, OpenID Connect).
Experience with Kafka or event-driven systems is a plus.
Strong understanding of frontend security considerations (CSP, XSS, CORS, etc.).
Excellent verbal and written communication skills with the ability to articulate architectural decisions and influence stakeholders.
Ability to work well with peers in a collaborative team environment.

Generous medical care, insurance, and savings plans.
Flexible Work Program to help you match your needs.
