About the role

Frontend-focused Full Stack Engineer role at Salient, building powerful, intuitive product experiences and owning frontend systems while collaborating across APIs, backend services, data models, and infrastructure.

Responsibilities

  • Own product features end to end, from initial problem definition through implementation, launch, adoption, and iteration
  • Design and implement responsive, performant user interfaces using React and TypeScript
  • Translate complex financial and operational workflows into simple, intuitive product experiences
  • Work across frontend applications, APIs, backend services, and data models to deliver complete solutions
  • Proactively identify product, usability, and technical gaps and drive them toward resolution
  • Work directly with customers and internal stakeholders to understand their workflows and uncover problems that may not yet have clearly defined requirements
  • Collaborate across product, design, AI, and engineering to make decisions and ship quickly
  • Help define frontend architecture and build reusable, scalable UI components
  • Integrate frontend applications with APIs, services, and AI driven workflows
  • Ship clean, testable, and maintainable code on a rapid release cycle
  • Monitor how your work performs in production and take responsibility for fixing issues and improving outcomes
  • Surface blockers, risks, and missed expectations early rather than waiting for them to become larger problems
  • Advocate for the customer in product and engineering discussions

Qualifications

  • 4 or more years of experience building production software, with deep expertise in frontend development and experience working across the stack
  • Strong proficiency in React, TypeScript, modern JavaScript, and frontend tooling
  • Experience building or integrating with APIs, backend services, and production data systems
  • Deep understanding of responsive design, browser performance, accessibility, and maintainable UI architecture
  • A strong sense of ownership. You take responsibility for the quality, delivery, and impact of your work
  • A highly proactive working style. You identify what needs to happen next and move it forward without waiting for detailed direction
  • A bias for action. You make thoughtful, pragmatic tradeoffs and maintain momentum in ambiguous situations
  • Strong product judgment and the ability to turn loosely defined customer problems into concrete solutions
  • A customer obsessed mindset. You engage with users, understand their workflows, and translate their pain points into product improvements
  • The ability to operate independently while collaborating closely with a fast moving team
  • A habit of communicating progress, risks, and tradeoffs clearly and early
  • High standards for quality without allowing perfectionism to prevent shipping
  • Comfort working in an environment where feedback comes directly from production users and enterprise partners
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
