About the role
Staff Frontend Engineer responsible for shaping architecture, quality, and developer experience of frontend product surfaces. Drive cross-team frontend initiatives, lead migration from Svelte to React, maintain design system, and advance AI-powered development practices.
Responsibilities
- Lead our migration from Svelte to React. Hold the architectural picture across both stacks, sequence the work against product delivery, and land it without stalling teams.
- Maintain and evolve our design system, together with the frontend guild, so product teams ship consistent, accessible UI faster.
- Support and guide frontend initiatives across teams, with the frontend guild — application architecture, performance, testing strategy, developer experience, and technical debt reduction — from diagnosis through measurable delivery.
- Be the bar raiser for UX and UI quality, raising the standard through design reviews, reusable patterns, mentoring, and thoughtful technical writing.
- Advance how we build with AI — find where agentic tooling genuinely improves engineering practice, and shape the codebase (module boundaries, API contracts, documentation) so it works well for people and agents alike.
Qualifications
- Track record — You have already operated at Staff scope, with or without the title, and have shipped systemic frontend or product-engineering improvements across multiple teams.
- Frontend craft — Deep expertise in modern frontend engineering, with strong command of TypeScript, component architecture, state management, design systems, accessibility, performance, testing, and maintainable application architecture.
- AI-native practice — You use AI coding tools daily and have gone past autocomplete into agentic workflows. You have a considered view on where they genuinely help, where they don't, and what a codebase needs to be a good place to work in with agents.
- Product judgment — You care about the user experience as much as the technical solution. You can translate ambiguous workflows and business constraints into pragmatic, elegant product experiences.
- Systems thinking — You are comfortable reasoning across frontend, backend, APIs, infrastructure, observability, security, and compliance when the problem requires it.
- Operating style — You think in quarters and years, not only sprints. You drive cross-team change through credibility, clear writing, architectural reasoning, and strong stakeholder alignment — not through authority.
- Collaborative Leadership — A proactive relationship-builder who can set technical direction and influence without formal authority, manage diverse stakeholders and build alignment on difficult technical decisions, while mentoring engineers.
- Language — Fluent English, written and spoken.
