This role will be permanent with IA, and working with us you will get exposure to Interactive Advisors work streams but also many projects working with the wider IBKR group.    We're looking for a talented Front-End Engineer to take a hands-on delivery role across our most critical platform initiatives — continuously improving our trading UIs in Vue.    You'll be working on technically demanding challenges: building and adapting high-performance JavaScript/TypeScript libraries for real-time browser connectivity, low-latency data parsing, robust error handling, and more.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
