About You
You are a highly skilled Senior Frontend Engineer who thrives on turning complex ideas into elegant, performant, and intuitive user experiences. You bring a deep understanding of modern frontend engineering and a passion for building clean, scalable, and maintainable interfaces, particularly in data-rich or real-time environments.
You’re comfortable operating as a senior individual contributor: taking ownership, bringing clarity to ambiguity, and elevating engineering standards through collaboration. You enjoy partnering with designers, backend engineers, and ML specialists, and you’re confident communicating technical decisions to both technical and non-technical audiences.
You have strong experience delivering high-quality web applications end-to-end, and you’re excited by defining tooling, frameworks, and best practices for a growing frontend function. You value documentation, accessibility, and thoughtful UI/UX.
You stay curious, keep up with modern frameworks and trends, and are enthusiastic about contributing to projects involving real-time interfaces, desktop/PWA builds, visualising complex graph structures, or AI-driven capabilities.
Most importantly, you’re motivated by impact and want to help shape how a new engineering team works, influence frontend direction across products, and contribute to a culture of continuous improvement, collaboration, and high-quality delivery.
