Preferred Requirements * Deep expertise in React, TypeScript, GraphQL/Apollo, shared UI systems, frontend testing strategy, accessibility standards, and performance tuning at scale. * Practical experience with micro-frontend architecture, including module federation, host/remote integration, runtime isolation, dependency sharing, ownership boundaries, and deployment strategy. * Proven ability to use analytics as a product feedback loop, identifying adoption issues and partnering with product and design to improve feature outcomes. * Experience rapidly prototyping customer-facing experiences and helping teams validate product ideas before requirements are fully defined. * Demonstrated design judgment and frontend craft, including the ability to evaluate visual quality, interaction patterns, usability, accessibility, and overall product experience. * Experience establishing frontend architecture standards and scalable integration patterns across multiple teams, applications, or independently owned frontend surfaces. * Strong practical working knowledge of AWS, Terraform, shell scripting, and the operational practices needed to build, run, troubleshoot, and maintain a secure, reliable sandbox environment. * Experience creating guardrails, reusable workflows, review standards, or quality gates for AI-assisted frontend development. * Track recordof reducing dependency on individual technical experts by documenting patterns, mentoring engineers, and distributing frontend architecture knowledge across a team. ## Description As a Software Engineering Technical Leader and hands-on individual contributor, you will shape how the team turns product ideas into high-quality customer experiences. You will provide deep frontend leadership while remaining actively engaged in day-to-day design, implementation, debugging, testing, and code review. You will define and evolve the frontend architecture and UI experience across React, TypeScript, GraphQL/Apollo, shared UI patterns, routing, performance, accessibility, and maintainability. You will help the team prototype quickly, translate ambiguous requirements into production-ready work, and use product analytics to understand adoption and guide iteration. This role will also help establish scalable micro-frontend integration patterns and frontend-specific standards for AI-assisted development. Your work will raise the quality, consistency, and velocity of contributions from across the team while reducing dependence on a small number of engineers for critical frontend architecture decisions., * Design, build, test, debug, andmaintainhigh-quality, scalable customer-facing applications using React and TypeScript. * Lead frontend technical design and architecture decisions, including component and shared UI patterns, state management, routing, performance, accessibility, testing, and long-term maintainability. * Partner closely with product managers and designers to rapidly prototype, iterate on, andvalidatecustomer experiences, even when requirements are incomplete or evolving. * Evolve the team's micro-frontend strategy, including host/remote integration, module federation or comparable patterns, runtime isolation, dependency sharing, ownership boundaries, and deployment expectations. * Use qualitative and quantitative product signals to identify adoption issues and partner with product and design to improve feature outcomes. * Create reusable frontend standards, patterns, documentation, and review expectations that improve consistency and make architecture knowledge broadly accessible. * Define practical guardrails, workflows, review standards, and quality gates for AI-assisted UI development, ensuring generated and human-written code meets standards for UX, visual quality, accessibility, performance, security, and maintainable structure. * Provide high-quality code reviews, remove delivery bottlenecks, mentor engineers, and raise the frontend craft of full-stack and frontend contributors. * Continuously evaluate and adopt tools, techniques, and platform improvements that enhance the team's development workflow and product quality. ## Related Videos - [Putting the Graph In GraphQL With The Neo4j GraphQL Library](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/257-putting-the-graph-in-graphql-with-the-neo4j-graphql-library) - [Creating a routing app with Google Maps API from scratch](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/831-creating-a-routing-app-with-google-maps-api-from-scratch) - [Developing the Backend with Stefan Lingler, CTO at Shpock](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100360-developing-the-backend-with-stefan-lingler-cto-at-shpock) - [But, you're not Facebook](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/378-but-you-re-not-facebook) - [Meet Your New BFF: Backend to Frontend without the Duct Tape](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/682-meet-your-new-bff-backend-to-frontend-without-the-duct-tape) - [Nest.js - TypeScript in the backend can also be clean](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1033-nest-js-typescript-in-the-backend-can-also-be-clean) ## Related Articles - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline) - [Dev Digest 132 - Binging WADFlix?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/473-dev-digest-132-binging-wadflix) - [16 Best Free React UI Libraries in 2025](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/148-16-best-free-react-ui-libraries-in-2025) - [React Developer Salary [2023]](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/198-react-developer-salary-2023)
