Senior Frontend Engineer

As a Senior Frontend Engineer, you will play a pivotal role in designing, building, and optimising high-quality user interfaces across our suite of data-driven applications. You’ll work closely with designers, backend engineers, and machine learning teams to create seamless, performant, and visually compelling experiences. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys solving complex UI challenges, influencing engineering standards, and helping shape the future of our frontend capability as we scale.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, build, and maintain modern, performance-focused frontend applications across web and desktop platforms.
• Develop and optimise reusable UI component libraries to ensure consistency and efficiency across products.
• Translate UX wireframes, prototypes, and design concepts into high-quality, accessible user interfaces.
• Collaborate with backend engineers to integrate APIs, manage data flows, and ensure a seamless end-to-end experience.
• Establish and champion best practices in coding standards, architecture, documentation, and frontend processes.
• Conduct thorough code reviews to maintain code quality, scalability, and maintainability.
• Implement testing strategies using tools such as Jest, Cypress, or Playwright to support robust, reliable releases.
• Ensure interfaces are accessible and meet WCAG standards.
• Diagnose and resolve complex UI issues, including performance bottlenecks, browser inconsistencies, and rendering challenges.
• Contribute to continuous improvement by suggesting new tools, frameworks, and approaches to enhance developer experience and product quality.
• Work on innovative projects involving real-time updates, visualisation of complex data structures, and interactions with AI/ML features.

• 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: someone who takes ownership, brings clarity to ambiguity, and elevates engineering standards through your work and collaboration. You enjoy partnering closely with designers, backend engineers, and machine learning 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 the opportunity to help define the tooling, frameworks, and best practices of a growing frontend function. You take pride in writing excellent code, but equally value documentation, knowledge sharing, accessibility, and thoughtful UI/UX.
• You stay curious, keep up with modern frameworks and trends, and are enthusiastic about contributing to projects that involve innovation, whether that’s real-time interfaces, desktop/PWA builds, visualising complex graph structures, or integrating with AI-driven capabilities.
• Most importantly, you’re motivated by impact. You want to help shape how a new engineering team works, influence the frontend direction across multiple products, and contribute to a culture of continuous improvement, collaboration, and high-quality delivery.
