Job description

  • Lead frontend architecture decisions for a platform serving thousands of concurrent agents across Wolt, DoorDash, and Deliveroo.
  • Design and build responsive, accessible, performant interfaces using React + TypeScript.
  • Author architecture and design documents (RFCs) that align cross-functional teams on technical direction.
  • Partner closely with product, design, and backend engineers to ship automations and AI-powered features that meaningfully boost agent productivity.
  • Set the bar for engineering quality through rigorous code review, performance audits, testing standards, and operational readiness.
  • Debug, profile, and optimize the platform for performance, accessibility, and reliability across browsers and devices.
  • Mentor other engineers and raise the team’s overall technical depth.

Requirements

Do you have experience in TypeScript?, Do you have a Master’s degree?, * 6+ years of professional frontend engineering experience, with deep expertise in React.js and TypeScript.

  • Strong architecture and system design skills: you write RFCs, define clean client-server boundaries, and think hard about scaling trade-offs.
  • Solid testing discipline: testing is part of how you write code, not something you bolt on at the end.
  • Performance and accessibility matter to you: you profile, you measure, you ship interfaces that work for everyone.
  • AI is part of how you work. You’ve got a real workflow (not just occasional autocomplete ) and you know when to trust the model.
  • You can run with ambiguity. Take a fuzzy problem, write the RFC, ship it, push back on bad ideas along the way.

Nice to have

  • A bit of backend Golang on top of your frontend skills.
  • You’ve built or maintained a design system or component library.
  • You’ve shipped AI or LLM features in production.
  • You’re comfortable with frontend observability.
