## Description

Are you a frontend engineer looking to work on genuinely cutting-edge technology, and to help build a brand-new UI team?

My client is a rapidly scaling unicorn, now valued at $3.8 billion after closing a $400 million Series C in October 2026. They're building a next-generation cloud security platform, using advanced eBPF-powered sensors to deliver real-time threat protection across modern cloud environments.

This is a dedicated frontend role, not a full-stack one. They're looking for engineers who genuinely want to specialise in frontend and are very technical., As a Frontend Engineer, you will be responsible for designing, building and evolving the frontend of a cloud-native security platform.

You will work closely with product managers, designers and backend engineers to deliver high-performance, scalable user interfaces, in a team that embraces modern, AI-assisted development.

Key responsibilities include:

 * Designing and developing frontend components from concept through to production
 * Leading frontend implementation across key product features
 * Contributing to architectural and technical design decisions
 * Championing product quality and user experience across the platform
 * Defining and collaborating on API design with backend and platform teams
 * Optimising application performance, scalability and reliability
 * Participating in code reviews and design reviews to maintain engineering standards
