Descripción del empleo

Edelman is a voice synonymous with trust, reimagining a future where the currency of communication is action. Our culture thrives on three promises: boldness is possibility, empathy is progress, and curiosity is momentum. At Edelman, we understand diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) as essential to transforming our colleagues, our company, our clients, and our communities. We are committed to creating an equitable and inspiring workplace that respects all, reflects the world we live in, and fosters trust, collaboration, and belonging.

We’re looking for an experienced Staff Front-End Engineer to join our growing, remote-first team at Edelman. This role reports to the Director of Software Engineering.

Our team develops AI-powered tools that drive real impact across Edelman’s global business — from media monitoring and strategic insights to content generation and reporting. These solutions leverage our proprietary data and Trust scoring system, delivered through our internal platform. These workflows help automate routine work, enrich strategic decisions, and create brand-safe content at scale.

You’ll take ownership of front-end architecture across multiple applications and lead efforts to deliver performant, maintainable, and cohesive user experiences. You’ll write clean, scalable code, introduce front-end best practices, mentor engineers, and collaborate across disciplines to build AI-powered products. Our applications, backed by large language models and generative AI, are central to Edelman’s AI-first transformation. Your leadership will ensure our front-end stack evolves to meet the challenges of integrating advanced AI into impactful products.

Why You'll Love Working with Us

At Edelman, we value collaboration, autonomy, and quality. We make decisions together, iterate quickly, and prioritize clean code and smart architecture. We foster a culture of shared learning, thoughtful critique, and continuous improvement. If you thrive in an environment where your ideas matter and you can make a real impact—this is the place for you.

What You'll Do

1. Front-End Architecture: Lead the design and evolution of scalable, modular front-end architecture using modern best practices.
2. Engineering Leadership: Mentor front-end engineers, conduct code reviews, and set quality, accessibility, and performance standards.
3. Component Systems: Design and maintain a shared component library using React, Tailwind CSS, and Shadcn / Radix.
4. Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with backend engineers, UX designers, and product managers to deliver features from concept to deployment.
5. Tooling & Dev Experience: Improve front-end tooling, testing strategies (unit, integration, E2E, visual regression), and developer workflows.
6. Advocate for Best Practices: Champion accessibility, performance, testing, and continuous refactoring.
7. Lead by Example: Be hands-on—writing clean, scalable code and continuously introducing front-end best practices in collaboration with the team.

Our Front-End Stack

• Frameworks & Libraries: React, Shadcn UI, Radix UI
• Styling: Tailwind CSS
• Tooling: Vite, Yarn, GitHub Actions
• Testing: Vitest, Playwright

What We're Looking For

• 7+ years of front-end development experience, including significant experience with React and modern TypeScript.
• Proven experience in designing and maintaining component libraries and scalable front-end architectures.
• Deep understanding of state management patterns and performance optimization techniques.
• Experience integrating with design systems and implementing accessible, responsive UIs.
• Experience defining and implementing testing strategies (unit, integration, E2E, visual regression), using tools like Playwright, Cypress, or React Testing Library.
• Strong communication skills and ability to lead technical discussions and mentoring sessions.
• Experience in Agile teams and working in a fast-paced, iterative environment.

Nice to Have

• Experience with data visualization or charting libraries (Recharts preferred).
• Familiarity with analytics and monitoring tools (e.g., Mixpanel, Sentry).
• Prior work on AI-driven products or dynamic, data-heavy applications.

What Success Looks Like

• Establishing clear, maintainable front-end architecture.
• Shipping faster and with greater confidence through improved processes, tooling, and CI/CD practices.
• Mentoring engineers and raising the team’s overall quality.
• Contributing to a strong, inclusive, and collaborative engineering culture.

Salary range: €70,000 - €83,000 per year.
