Role Overview We are hiring a Lead Frontend Engineer to own the architecture and delivery of large-scale, cloud-native web applications . This is not a UI-only role — you will drive frontend system design, performance engineering, and platform-level decisions across multiple products. You will be responsible for building highly scalable, modular frontend architectures (Micro Frontends) , ensuring low-latency, high-availability user experiences , and partnering with backend, product, and design teams to deliver production-grade SaaS platforms used at scale . This role requires deep hands-on expertise , strong engineering judgment , and proven experience in building and operating frontend systems in production environments . 🔹 Key Responsibilities Architecture & System Design Own and design frontend architecture for large-scale applications , including Micro Frontend ecosystems (mandatory) Define component architecture, state management strategies, and inter-app communication patterns Drive modularization, reusability, and long-term maintainability across multiple frontend applications Make critical decisions on frameworks, libraries, and architectural patterns
Development & Delivery Build and ship production-grade applications using React.js, TypeScript, modern JavaScript (ES6+) Enforce clean code practices, strong typing, and scalable folder/code structures Implement robust API integrations , handling edge cases, failures, retries, and performance optimization Ensure cross-browser compatibility and responsive design at scale
Performance & Scalability Optimize applications for low latency, fast load times, and high concurrency Implement code splitting, lazy loading, caching strategies, and CDN optimization Analyze and improve Core Web Vitals (LCP, CLS, FID) and real-user performance metrics
Cloud, DevOps & Release Engineering Work in cloud-native environments (GCP preferred) with strong understanding of: Hosting architectures CDN strategies Edge delivery Build and manage CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins or equivalent) Enable automated testing, build optimization, and zero-downtime deployments
Observability & Reliability Implement frontend observability : Logging (client-side) Error tracking (e.g., Sentry) Performance monitoring Define and track frontend SLAs/SLOs Debug and resolve production issues at scale
Collaboration & Product Thinking Work closely with UX/UI teams to translate design systems into high-quality, scalable UI components Partner with backend teams to define API contracts and data flow strategies Contribute to product decisions with engineering trade-offs
Leadership & Mentorship Mentor engineers and enforce engineering excellence standards Conduct code reviews focused on scalability, performance, and maintainability Drive a culture of ownership, accountability, and continuous improvement
🔹 Technical Skills (STRICT REQUIREMENTS) Core Frontend Expert-level proficiency in: React.js (hooks, lifecycle, performance patterns) TypeScript (mandatory for large-scale apps) Modern JavaScript (ES6+) HTML5, CSS3 (including Flexbox, Grid)
Architecture & System Design Hands-on experience designing: Micro Frontend architectures (MANDATORY — production use only) Component libraries / design systems State management (Redux / Zustand / Context API or equivalent) Strong understanding of: Frontend scalability patterns Module federation / app composition
Cloud & Infrastructure Experience working in cloud-native environments (GCP preferred / AWS acceptable) Understanding of: CDN (Cloudflare, Akamai, etc.) Static vs dynamic hosting architectures Edge caching strategies
DevOps & CI/CD Experience with: CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or equivalent) Build tools (Webpack, Vite, Babel) Version control (Git — advanced workflows)
APIs & Integration Strong experience with: REST APIs and/or GraphQL API error handling, retries, and performance tuning Authentication flows (JWT, OAuth)
Observability & Monitoring Hands-on experience with: Error tracking tools (Sentry, Datadog, etc.) Performance monitoring tools Logging and debugging production issues
Security & Best Practices Understanding of: Secure frontend development (XSS, CSRF prevention) Dependency management and vulnerability handling
🔹 Experience Requirements (NON-NEGOTIABLE) 10+ years of frontend engineering experience Proven experience in: Building and scaling production web applications Owning frontend architecture (not just contributing) Working in product/SaaS environments Demonstrated experience with: Micro Frontends in production (mandatory) Handling high-traffic or enterprise-scale applications Experience working in cross-functional, global teams
🔹 What Makes a Strong Fit Has architected and scaled frontend platforms , not just built screens Demonstrates deep understanding of performance optimization and scalability Has delivered measurable impact: Improved performance Reduced load times Enhanced user experience at scale Strong ownership mindset — drives decisions, not just executes tasks Comfortable working in ambiguous, fast-paced product environments Ability to balance engineering excellence with product delivery speed
🔹 Implicit Disqualifiers (Used Internally for Screening) Candidates will be rejected if they: Have only worked on UI implementation without architecture ownership Lack real Micro Frontend production experience Show only tool familiarity without depth Have no exposure to production-scale systems Primarily worked in support/maintenance roles
