## Description

We're looking for a UI Engineer to join our team and play a critical role in building and shaping the firm's internal UI platform. This is a high-impact, hands-on engineering position where you'll contribute not just as a front-end specialist, but also as a platform strategist - helping to evolve our UI infrastructure powering 100+ business applications across the firm. You'll work in a dynamic, fast-paced environment where product requirements evolve, and business stakeholders are deeply engaged. Your engineering skills, UX sensibility, and product mindset will all be utilized as you craft industry-leading UI platform and ecosystems.

What you'll do

You'll be a key contributor to our UI platform and a technical partner to product owners building on top of it. You'll help evolve our technical stack and development tools by contributing to architectural improvements, shared components, and implementation consistency across cross-functional teams. At the same time, you'll work closely with product teams and business stakeholders, helping shape feature definitions, and building high-impact UI solutions directly into their applications.

Your development responsibilities will span full-stack, including web front-end, backend integration, API design, performance optimization, and system observability.

You'll also be involved in the team's code quality and best practices, mentor junior engineers, identify gaps in development lifecycles, and continuously improve both the core platform and how developers build with it.
