Description :
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 :
- 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 to 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(ref : hirist.tech)
