Responsibilities

• Architectural Strategy: Lead the technical direction for our frontend monorepo. You will decide on state management, routing and module boundaries within Next.js and TypeScript to ensure long-term scalability and ease of maintenance.
• Component System Architecture: Design and develop our internal UI library (based on MUI ). You will build reusable, strictly typed component abstractions that serve as the building blocks for the engineering team and AI agents.
• Performance Engineering: Build and improve high-performance, low-latency user interfaces. You will profile application performance, minimize re-renders and ensure the platform remains responsive under heavy data loads.
• Code Governance and Quality: Set the architectural patterns and coding standards that govern our development. You will review complex technical proposals and provide the oversight needed to ensure that high-volume contributions, including those from AI agents, adhere to robust engineering principles.
• Technical Leadership: Act as the primary expert for frontend technologies. You will guide the engineering team on UI best practices and help them use AI tools effectively while maintaining a clean and cohesive codebase.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s/Master’s degree in Information Technology, Computer Science, or equivalent experience.
• 3+ years of professional experience in Frontend Development.

• Required experience:
• Hands-on experience with Next.js
• Experience with Material UI (MUI) or similar component libraries.
• Strong eye for design (UI/UX): Ability to build polished, aesthetically pleasing interfaces and bridge the gap between design and engineering.
• Solid understanding of testing principles and experience with frameworks like Jest and Cypress or Playwright.
• Familiarity with Monorepo structures and tools (e.g., Turborepo, Yarn Workspaces).
• Proficient with Git, Docker, and CI/CD workflows.
