Senior Frontend Developer

The Position: We are seeking an experienced Senior Frontend Software Engineer (JavaScript/React) to join our team. You’ll take ownership of complex, high-impact frontend initiatives end-to-end, set technical direction for our frontend architecture, and mentor engineers across the team. This role is ideal for an engineer who wants to shape how we build software, not just build it - someone who combines deep technical expertise with the judgment to know what’s worth building. It is also critical to have a team-focused attitude so we can learn, grow, and succeed together. This position is based in Indianapolis, IN, and requires the candidate to be local, as remote work is not available. We are also unable to provide sponsorship for employment opportunities.

• Proactively identify and resolve performance bottlenecks, technical debt, and architectural challenges.
• Champion the adoption of modern tools, frameworks, and processes that improve team productivity.
• Mentor and guide engineers at all levels with technical leadership.
• Monitor code for problems using tools like Sentry and actively implement solutions.
• See and address edge cases during product development.
• Architect net-new functionality with behaviors that don’t currently exist in the codebase.
• Create new layers and components using appropriate inheritance to promote code reuse.
• Act as a subject matter expert for React and other frontend technologies within the organization.

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 5+ years of professional experience
• Extensive, proven experience with JavaScript, React, and modern frontend tooling (Vite, Node, npm/yarn).
• Expert-level command of React architecture and internals, with experience mentoring others on it.
• Demonstrated experience architecting frontend systems, reusable component libraries, and style guides from the ground up.
• Experience with performance monitoring and error-tracking tools (e.g., Sentry) in production environments.
• Strong systems-level thinking - able to design toward broader technical goals rather than optimizing single features in isolation.
• Deep commitment to code quality and technical excellence, with a track record of instilling best practices across a team.
• Proven track record mentoring and providing technical leadership to engineers at all levels.
• Strong understanding of responsive design, accessibility, and cross-browser compatibility.
• Advanced Git workflow experience.
