FrontEnd (SDE 4/5)

Responsibilities:

• Architect and own

  the development of complex, mission-critical, high-performance trading and risk management UIs using modern frameworks.

• Establish and champion

  a unified UI design system and component library, ensuring cross-product consistency and high performance across the trading stack.

• Define and execute

  long-term technical roadmaps for the frontend organization, including strategic technology modernization initiatives.

• Collaborate closely

  with backend teams to define robust API contracts and optimize architecture for low-latency, high-throughput delivery.

• Lead performance and scalability optimization

  for frontends handling real-time, data-intensive workloads (market data, charts, order books), focusing on maximizing throughput and minimizing perceived latency.

• Design and implement reusable abstractions

  for charts, grids, and complex visualizations supporting large-scale streaming data (WebSocket, SSE, or GraphQL subscriptions).

• Drive architecture and tooling decisions

  around build systems, testing strategy, CI/CD pipelines, and performance instrumentation.

• Champion engineering excellence

  through rigorous documentation, clean architecture, TDD/BDD practices (Jest, Playwright, Cypress), and strong developer-experience principles.

• Implement deep observability and instrumentation

  using OpenTelemetry and logging frameworks to monitor user sessions, latency, and system performance.

• Work directly with traders, risk managers, and other stakeholders

  to translate complex workflows into intuitive, reliable, and responsive interfaces.

• Mentor and guide

  frontend engineers through code reviews, design discussions, and best-practice evangelism, fostering a culture of continuous improvement and technical rigor.

• Influence firm-wide UI strategy

  by identifying emerging technologies and scaling patterns that improve performance, maintainability, and developer velocity.
