What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Frontend Software Engineer position at Talentry?
Senior Frontend Engineer
Location: Seattle, WA (On-site / Hybrid)
We’re looking for an experienced Senior Frontend Engineer to own and lead
the entire user experience layer of a mission-critical enterprise platform used
daily by cities, utilities, and infrastructure teams across North America. This
is a high-impact, high-autonomy role where you’ll define the future of our web
(and eventually mobile) frontend architecture from the ground up.
What You’ll Own
- Selecting and establishing the
modern frontend stack and long-term roadmap
- Designing and driving a scalable,
shared component library that works across web and mobile
- Modernizing our frontend codebase
while dramatically improving performance, reliability, and developer
velocity
- Setting the quality bar:
architecture, testing strategy, performance budgeting, accessibility, and
engineering hygiene
- Mentoring and leveling up a
growing team of frontend engineers
- Partnering closely with Product
and executive leadership to translate customer needs into delightful,
high-performance experiences
- Measuring and continuously
improving real-world client-side performance (load times, memory, offline
behavior, etc.)
Requirements
What You Bring
- 8 years of professional
experience building complex web applications
- Mastery of JavaScript/TypeScript
and deep expertise in at least one modern framework (React, Vue, Angular,
or similar)
- Proven track record of owning
frontend architecture decisions at scale
- Hands-on experience with advanced
browser APIs, especially IndexedDB, caching strategies, and offline-first
patterns
- Strong focus on measurable
client-side performance and data-driven optimization
- Obsession with code quality: high
test coverage, design systems, linting, CI/CD, and tooling that makes
teams move faster
- Experience working directly with
end users or customers to shape product direction
- Exceptional communication skills
— you can explain technical trade-offs to both engineers and non-technical
executives
- Demonstrated ability to thrive in
fast-paced, ambiguous environments and drive consensus across teams
- Customer-obsessed mindset with a
history of championing “delighter” features that users love
Nice-to-Haves
- Experience shipping desktop apps
(e.g., Electron or similar)
- Background in API design or
full-stack development
- Familiarity with relational or
NoSQL databases
- Proficiency in a compiled
language (Java, C#, Go, Python, etc.)
- Hands-on experience with major
cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP)
Who Thrives Here
You’re someone who gets excited about building foundational systems that
will be used for the next decade. You care deeply about both pixel-perfect
experiences and rock-solid engineering. You’re comfortable being the most
senior frontend voice in the room while remaining humble, collaborative, and
eager to mentor others.
If you’re ready to own the entire UX platform of a growing, product-led
company and set a new standard for what great frontend engineering looks like
in enterprise software, we’d love to hear from you.
Apply with your resume and a brief note about a frontend modernization
project you’re particularly proud of.
