Senior Frontend Engineer

We are expanding our core engineering team and seeking a senior engineer who combines solid technical expertise with excellent communication and collaboration skills. We value pragmatic people who can solve problems with original thinking and who thrive in agile, cross-functional teams.

This role is primarily hands-on frontend engineering, with the expectation that you will progressively grow toward a Team Lead role with our support.

What you will do

• Take ownership of the product you are building across the full software lifecycle - from requirements analysis and design to implementation, deployment, monitoring, and support.
• Design and deliver maintainable, reliable, and well-tested solutions.
• Collaborate closely with frontend and backend engineers, product stakeholders, and other teams.
• Team spirit - you are a great teammate, making sure that everyone on your team feels valued and is excited to work with you.
• Passion, curiosity, pragmatism, and humility. We favor code and demos over lengthy discussions.
• Use AI tools thoughtfully and responsibly, understanding when they help and when engineering judgment matters more.

Team Lead Track

As part of this role, you will progressively grow toward a Team Lead position with our support. In this regard, we will expect among others the following:

• Balancing hands-on engineering with technical leadership and delivery coordination responsibilities (approximately 60% hands-on development and 40% leadership/coordination).
• Helping align a small cross-functional engineering team around delivery goals and technical priorities.
• Maintaining and refining the engineering backlog in collaboration with Product and Tech leadership.
• Supporting team collaboration, mentoring, and knowledge sharing.
• Contributing to delivery planning, prioritisation, and continuous improvement initiatives.

Do you have experience in Software development?, * Strong software engineering and programming fundamentals.

• Strong experience with a modern frontend framework with hands on experience of Vue3
• Extensive experience developing applications with TypeScript, modern JavaScript, HTML5, and CSS.
• Good knowledge of the JavaScript ecosystem, including tools such as Vite, Node.js, Vitest, and related modern tooling.
• Understanding of software development processes, including versioning, packaging, testing, and deployment.
• Fluency with Git and collaborative development workflows.
• Professional proficiency in English (French is a plus).
• Swiss or European citizenship, or a valid Swiss work permit.

Nice-to-have

• Familiarity with backend systems or full-stack development practices.
• Experience working closely with Product and UX teams to refine ambiguous requirements.
• Experience integrating with RESTful APIs.
• Experience with Playwright.
• Experience building or maintaining GitHub Actions pipelines.
• Knowledge of the financial sector or wealth management.
• Exposure to mentoring, performance feedback, or lightweight people management responsibilities.

• Work with modern technologies on challenging and meaningful engineering problems.
• Build products alongside talented, experienced, and collaborative engineers.
• Join autonomous teams with a high level of trust, ownership, and accountability.
• Enjoy a flexible working environment with flexible hours, hybrid working (up to 2 days remote per week), and an open office culture.
• Take part in a friendly and social office environment, including a playroom/cafeteria with table football, video game consoles, and complimentary drinks.
