Description

Lead Frontend Developer

Are you an engineer excited by the idea of not being stuck at their desk on a day to day basis?

This role and client offers a truly unique opportunity to join one of the most exciting AI startups in the world. The work is unique and will see you make a meaningful direct impact on the world.

Frequently, you will be right at the heart of the state of the art in technical innovation, be it reinforcement learning, distributed systems etc.

My client is very much in research mode, which gives engineers the freedom to try new things and voice their ideas. It gives you as a software engineer the ability to design solutions and implement hem from bottom to top.

Ultimately, I’m looking for engineers who are maybe tired of being a cog in a machine, with the same monotonous work on a day to day.

Engineers who are bought into the idea of working for a fast growing start up and buy into the long term vision of a firm.

The role will see you collaborate with the C suite in defining the front end road map. You will report directly to the CTO.

The day-to-day :

  • Own the user interface end-to-end (from scribble to production-ready code)
  • Create and manage our visual design together with our UX and product management team
  • Establish and curate our component library and ensure its compliance with our needs (visual design, reusability, etc.)
  • Create and maintain build and deployment pipelines
  • Continually optimize our user experience for performance
  • Connect with, understand and make small changes to potentially multiple unfamiliar backends
  • Build re-usable tooling that benchmarks, instruments and identifies performance problems deep in the front-end stack.

Requirements :

  • Computer Science Degree from a top worldwide university
  • Significant recent experience with React.
  • Working knowledge of Next.js / SSR and its strengths and weaknesses.
  • Established understanding of one-or-more modern JS bundlers, such as Vite.
  • Experience with styling utility-class libraries such as TailwindCSS.
  • Previous exposure to other programming languages like Python or Rust.
  • Hybrid 2 / 3 days in office (state of the art offices with gadgets, drones etc.).

Salary : Up to £160k Base + Generous Equity package
