Sr. Software Frontend Engineer

Job Description

We're looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer (SDE-3) who can combine hands-on engineering with technical leadership. Someone who enjoys building, scaling, and securing frontend systems from the ground up while guiding a small team to do the same. This role goes beyond feature delivery; you'll manage infra, shape engineering practices, and set the direction for how we scale our products. Perfect for someone who's a builder at heart, excited by tough problems, and comfortable working in an early-stage startup environment. Responsibilities Own frontend architecture end-to-end: design, build, and scale systems that power critical user-facing flows. Go deep into performance and infra: optimise bundles, Core Web Vitals, caching, and monitoring at scale. Define engineering practices: CI/CD pipelines, testing frameworks, observability, and security standards for frontend. Operate like an owner: manage infra pieces (cloud-native setups, deployments, monitoring tools) where frontend needs to tie into platform reliability. Collaborate closely with backend and product to solve cross-cutting problems (latency, API contracts, data flows). Mentor and lead engineers in the team, raising the engineering bar through design/code reviews and technical strategy. Balance short-term delivery with long-term scalability, helping the team ship fast without compromising architecture. Requirements 5-8 years building production-grade frontend applications at scale. Expertise in JavaScript, TypeScript, and at least one modern framework (React/Angular). Strong grasp of frontend architecture patterns, state management, and performance tuning. Experience working with CI/CD pipelines, monitoring, and cloud-native environments. Prior experience in early-stage teams or building products from scratch. Experience with SEO and PWA. Built products from scratch or have previous experience working at a start-up. Ability to mentor engineers and drive technical decision-making. A history of working on side/hobby projects and contributing to open source projects. This job was posted by Tushar Gupta from myHQ.
