Job description

Our client is looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer to help us scale our next-gen consumer finance platform. Our product has tremendous traction helping 1million+ low income Americans make ends meet. We've built beautifully designed, user-centric mobile and web clients with React (including React Native) and TypeScript, but we need help in making them even more user friendly & extensible.


As we approach our next phase of growth, we're scoping out new products and features helping our users save more and improve their credit options - in short, better equipping them along their financial journey. You'll have the opportunity to leverage the platform of our current frontend & backend base to build these new products from the ground up for millions of users.


The engineering team is small and nimble; you'll get an extraordinary amount of autonomy and ownership. More importantly, you'll have a large say in the direction of the company -- both in terms of our technology and our product. One of our greatest strengths is the speed with which we can move. If you want to propose a new way of doing things, we are all ears. If you have an idea for a new feature, we'll be open to it. A new design paradigm? Bring it on.

Who You Are

  • 7+ years of full-time industry experience in the React (including React Native) & JavaScript ecosystem
  • Experience using HTML & CSS to create beautiful interfaces
  • Up-to-date grasp of the constantly evolving JS language standards, ES6 and beyond
  • Experience consuming (and spec'ing requirements for) REST APIs
  • TypeScript or other compile-to-JS language is a plus; Fullstack/Backend experience (esp. in Java) is a plus; quantitative skills, knowledge or experience in Finance is a plus
  • You are a self-starter, self-motivated, and able to work independently and manage multiple projects under minimal supervision
  • Experience leading teams or mentoring junior engineers is a plus
  • Can build UI/UX for new features from end-to-end
  • The ability to rebuild an internal dashboard from scratch which greatly enhances our internal customer success team's efficiency

What You'll Be Doing

  • Implementing interaction and motion design for more delightful user experiences
  • Unifying our component and styling libraries to be shared across our mobile and web clients
  • Automating visual testing & visual regression detection processes
  • Creating new mobile & web clients for upcoming products
  • Work with the Product & Design teams to spec, build, and ship a new Financial Health Score feature
  • A/B testing and optimizing features that boost our business' bottom line
  • Scale out our mobile/web client distribution to over 2 million users
