Jobbeschreibung

What you will do

• Lead the incremental migration of a business-critical, server-side rendered frontend tightly coupled to a monolithic PHP backend into a modern Vue-based frontend architecture
• Define the migration strategy, establish clear boundaries and contracts between the Vue frontend and backend services, and own technical direction and delivery risks
  
• Establish and evolve frontend standards covering UI consistency, accessibility, testing, performance, and code quality
• Contribute to reusable component libraries and design system integrations to improve consistency and scalability across the product
• Partner closely with Product, Design, and Backend Engineering to deliver user-centered experiences and align technical solutions with business needs
• Use AI effectively in your daily engineering work to investigate existing code, accelerate delivery, solve problems, and continuously improve outcomes

• Experience contributing to reusable component libraries, UI patterns, or design systems
• Solid understanding of testing practices, particularly Unit and E2E testing
• Sound knowledge of accessibility standards and ideally practical experience with WCAG-oriented implementation
• You link technical decisions directly to user value and business goals, always questioning why a problem matters, who it is for, and if it's the right solution.
• You shape architectural direction without needing formal authority, helping your team grow through role modeling, constructive feedback, and strong technical advocacy.
• You are comfortable working in complex production environments with mature or legacy systems, successfully handling shifting priorities and ambiguous requirements while actively improving the codebase.
