ABOUT THE ROLE

We are looking for a Staff Frontend Engineer with deep expertise in React and TypeScript. You’ll own the frontend architecture behind the data-dense applications our clients and research teams use every day, where performance, accessibility, and interaction quality are the product. This is a hands-on role: you’ll write production code, but your leverage comes from the systems and standards you leave behind.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

- 6+ years engineering experience, mostly frontend, including 3+ at a senior level owning projects end-to-end

- Deep React expertise — hooks, composition patterns, and the ability to reason about rendering behavior rather than guess at it

- Strong TypeScript — typing that catches real bugs instead of decorating the code

- Expert JavaScript (ES6+), HTML, and CSS/SCSS, including the modern layout model

- Proven ownership of frontend architecture at scale: module boundaries, shared component libraries, and state management strategy

- Web performance as a discipline — Core Web Vitals, bundle analysis, code splitting, virtualization, and profiling with real tooling

- Accessibility fluency — WCAG 2.1 AA, semantic HTML, keyboard and focus management, screen reader testing

- Design system experience: reusable, themeable, documented components built in partnership with Design

- Testing depth — Jest and React Testing Library, plus end-to-end coverage (Playwright or Cypress) people actually trust

- Fluency consuming APIs: REST and/or GraphQL, data-fetching and caching patterns (React Query, SWR, Apollo), and error states that hold up in production

- Working knowledge of Python/Django — enough to read backend code, shape endpoints with backend engineers, and ship a small change yourself

- Ability to mentor, review code with judgment, and raise the bar without becoming a bottleneck

BONUS SKILLS (NICE-TO-HAVES)

- Server-side rendering (Next.js, Remix) and hydration tradeoffs

- Frontend observability and performance budgets enforced in CI (Sentry, Datadog RUM)

- Data visualization at scale (D3, Recharts, Visx, canvas/WebGL)

- Real-time UI: WebSockets, polling strategies, streaming or collaborative interfaces

- Styling systems (Material-UI, Tailwind) and state management (Redux, Zustand)

- Build and monorepo tooling ownership (Vite, Webpack, CI pipelines)

- Cloud and infra exposure: GCP, Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform

- Internationalization, or SOLID design principles applied with judgment

WHAT YOU’LL DO

- Own the architecture of our React/TypeScript applications and the patterns the team builds on

- Lead development of performant, accessible UIs for complex research and analytics workflows

- Set and defend frontend standards — performance budgets, accessibility, testing, and quality gates in CI

- Build and evolve our shared component library and design system with Design

- Drive measurable performance work: profile, fix the real bottleneck, instrument it so it stays fixed

- Partner with backend engineers on API contracts that make the frontend simpler, not harder

- Pay down frontend technical debt deliberately, and contribute to Python/Django services where it speeds delivery

- Mentor engineers and own department-wide technical initiatives from proposal through adoption

WHAT WE OFFER

- Competitive compensation with a total compensation range of $180k-$240k and equity. (Please note that salary and compensation may vary based on skills, experience, performance, and location.)

- Excellent medical, dental, and vision insurance.

- 401k match with immediate vesting.

- Generous Paid time off: vacation, holidays, sick, and parental leave.

- A diverse, collaborative, and positive culture where we invest in and celebrate each other’s success.

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.
