Senior Frontend Engineer (React/TypeScript)

Senior Frontend Engineer (React/TypeScript)

We are looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer (React/TypeScript) to join a US-based logistics software company building a workforce management platform for delivery businesses. The product serves companies that run on large networks of independent contractor drivers, bringing onboarding, compliance and ongoing workforce administration into one place. Its customers are delivery operations across the United States. You will take frontend features from a first conversation with product all the way to production, splitting your time between planned product work and quick prototypes that test ideas before the team commits to them. You will talk directly with product and business stakeholders, look after a React codebase that has been growing for several years, and push the interface forward on quality, speed and accessibility, working alongside one other senior frontend engineer. The engineer who does well here is self-directed, comfortable with loose specs, and writes clearly, because writing is how a distributed team talks.

Requirements5+ years of experience building production web applications

• Deep knowledge of React, including rendering behaviour, state management trade-offs, and the reasons frontend applications become slow or fragile

• Solid CSS and layout skills, able to turn a design or a rough sketch into an interface that looks right on every screen
• Experience consuming and shaping REST AP
• IsDaily use of AI coding tools as a core part of your development workflow

• Professional spoken and written English, with the clear writing a distributed team runs onNice to Have
• Design sensibility - you improve a mediocre design instead of implementing it faithfully
• Enough backend familiarity, with Node.js or another stack, to read server code and unblock yourself
• Testing habits proportional to risk - you know what is worth testing and what is notResponsibilitiesOwn frontend features end to end, from an early conversation with product to a shipped feature in production, including the parts nobody assigned to you
• Build quick, credible prototypes that help the team decide on a direction before committing to itWork directly with product and business stakeholders, asking the questions that change the spec
• Push back on specifications and API designs when they make the frontend worse
• Keep a several-year-old React codebase healthy, so it stays pleasant to work inImprove the quality, performance and accessibility of the interface
• Turn designs and rough sketches into interfaces that look right on every screen
