Job description

Qover is an embedded insurance scale-up operating across 32 countries, partnering with brands like Revolut, Mastercard, BMW, Canyon, and Monzo. We’re growing fast - and we’re investing in a front-end platform that is fast, accessible, and consistent across markets. We’re looking for a front-end engineer who cares about craft and architecture: clean component design, performance, accessibility, and strong collaboration with product and design. We’re also pragmatic about tooling - we encourage AI-assisted workflows where they improve quality and velocity, without compromising security or maintainability. Your Impact: What You’ll Do As a Sr. Front-End Engineer at Qover, you’ll take ownership of the client-side experience - collaborating closely with design and product to shape how our products look, feel, and perform. Here is a taste of what you will be doing:

  • Use modern developer tooling (including AI-assisted coding) responsibly: speed up iteration, reduce boilerplate, and improve quality through better test generation, refactoring, and documentation.
  • Build and evolve reusable UI components and user journeys in React and TypeScript, with a focus on maintainability and consistency across products and markets.
  • Own front-end quality: performance (Core Web Vitals), accessibility (WCAG), reliability, and a great experience across devices and regions.
  • Contribute to our design system: shared components, tokens, and documentation (e.g., Storybook) so teams can ship faster with consistent UI patterns.
  • Collaborate closely with design and back-end teams to integrate APIs and deliver secure front-end implementations (auth flows, data handling, XSS/CSRF awareness, privacy-by-design)., * Hybrid & remote-friendly: We welcome candidates across Europe. Our Brussels office is a key collaboration hub, and many team activities take place there, but we support flexible remote arrangements and up to one month per year working from anywhere globally.
  • A Hub When You Want It: Full access to our dedicated space at WeWork in Brussels (Rue du Commerce 31) for when you want collaborative whiteboard sessions or legendary team events on the terrace.
  • Exceptional Culture: A deeply collaborative, inclusive community where you are valued for exactly who you are, regardless of nationality, gender, age, sexual orientation, disability, or background.
  • Massive Growth: You’ll join during a high-growth phase, with opportunities to influence the front-end platform, design system, and developer experience.

Requirements

  • Strong professional experience building production front-ends in React and TypeScript (typically 5+ years).
  • Strong expertise in React and TypeScript in production: component patterns, typing, performance, and maintainable architecture.
  • Strong testing habits and experience writing automated tests (unit, integration, and/or end-to-end). Familiarity with tools like Playwright is a plus.
  • Strong CSS fundamentals (layout, responsiveness, theming) and experience with component-based UI development.
  • Strong HTML fundamentals (form handling, semantic, etc..)
  • Experience integrating APIs (REST), including auth, error handling, and working with API contracts.
  • Solid understanding of state management patterns in React (local state, context, reducers) and experience working in growing codebases. Exposure to state machines (e.g., XState) is a plus.
  • Strong knowledge of accessibility guidelines (WCAG)
  • Solid command of Git source control.
  • Bonus points: CI/CD familiarity, experience with SSR frameworks (Next.js/Remix/React router), or comfort working across the stack (Node.js basics) The Vibe: Who You Are

  • The Pragmatic Builder: You care about clean, readable code and details - and you know when to prioritize shipping and iteration.
  • The Adaptable Explorer: You’re comfortable in a scale-up environment: shifting priorities, ambiguity, and finding the highest-impact work.
  • The Communicator: You communicate clearly in writing and in conversation, ask good questions, and collaborate well across functions.
  • The Fun Co-Worker: You’re constructive, kind, and collaborative. You enjoy sharing knowledge through code reviews, pairing, and mentoring.
