About The Position

We’re a small team inside TransPerfect building a massive internal platform —a low-code application builder that’s powering how our entire company operates. It’s ambitious. It’s complex. It’s not “done.” And that’s exactly why it’s fun. Think: Not just a maintenance role You’ll be developing key features and capabilities Highly dynamic, data-driven interfaces Enterprise-scale… without enterprise-level red tape We operate more like a startup embedded inside a global company , which means we move fast, figure things out as we go, and need people who are excited to build something real from the ground up.

Requirements

• React / Next.js (you’ve built and deployed projects)
• TypeScript: you understand the why of types
• Modern CSS: Experience with Tailwind and/or MUI (we use both)
• State Management: Understand how data flow through a complex application
• Design Mindset: We need engineers who care about UX, not just functionality.
• You can design dense interfaces that still feel usable
• You think about how users actually interact with systems
• You understand tradeoffs between flexibility and clarity
• You’re comfortable shaping UX—not just implementing it
• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience
• A portfolio/Git account that shows you’ve built things
• Strong performance mindset
• AI can be a useful tool but our engineers are expected to function without it.

Nice To Haves

• Is comfortable when things are a little messy
• Can figure things out without a playbook
• Wants responsibility. Doesn’t panic when priorities shift or structure evolves.
• Can think abstractly.

• If you’ve worked in a perfectly polished, process-heavy dev org: this will feel different.
• If you’ve ever said “this could be built way better if we just…” : this is your playground.

Responsibilities

• Build and evolve a drag-and-drop app builder used across the company
• Collaborate and shape frontend architecture decisions (React / Next.js)
• Implement highly interactive, state-heavy UIs
• Create component systems that non-developers can configure and use
• Balance performance, usability, and flexibility in a complex environment

Benefits

• medical, dental, and vision insurance
• 401k matching
