Job description

  • Develop and maintain responsive, user-friendly web interfaces for financial services applications using modern front-end frameworks.
  • Implement UI components that integrate with REST APIs, ensuring correct data handling, error states, and performance.
  • Collaborate with UX/UI designers to translate designs and wireframes into high-quality, accessible front-end code.
  • Participate in Agile ceremonies (sprint planning, stand-ups, reviews) and deliver incremental features aligned to agreed acceptance criteria.
  • Write and maintain unit and component tests for front-end code to support quality and regression coverage.

  • Work with State Street-approved design systems and UI standards to implement consistent, accessible, and reusable front-end components, collaborating closely with UX/design teams to ensure alignment with enterprise look-and-feel and usability guidelines.

  • Support production readiness activities such as bug fixes, minor enhancements, and release validation with guidance from senior team members.

Maintain clear documentation for front-end components, dependencies, and integration assumptions.

Requirements

  • Hands-on experience developing front-end web applications using a modern JavaScript framework such as React, Angular, or Vue.js.
  • Strong proficiency in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript/TypeScript, including responsive design principles.
  • Experience integrating front-end applications with RESTful backend services and handling asynchronous data flows.
  • Understanding of basic front-end security considerations (e.g., safe handling of data, authentication flows, avoiding common client-side issues).
  • Familiarity with Agile delivery practices, version control, code reviews, and structured development workflows.
  • Experience working in financial services or another regulated environment, where quality, consistency, and documentation are important.

Good to have skills :

  • Exposure to enterprise UI standards and design systems used in large financial institutions.
  • Experience with front-end testing frameworks (e.g., component or end-to-end testing tools) and CI/CD integration.
  • Familiarity with performance optimisation techniques for data-heavy or operational user interfaces.
  • Digital asset knowledge: awareness of concepts such as custody dashboards, tokenized assets, transaction history views, or blockchain-adjacent user flows, sufficient to understand domain terminology and UI requirements.
  • Experience collaborating with globally distributed teams and working across time zones.
  • Exposure to Node.js for front-end support or lightweight backend-for-frontend (BFF) services, including working with REST APIs and understanding how Node.js services integrate with enterprise Java or platform backends.
