Staff Front-End Engineer (Remote – Northern Ireland)

Are you passionate about building exceptional user experiences at scale? Do you thrive on technical leadership, mentoring, and solving complex UI challenges?

My client is seeking a Staff Front-End Engineer to join their growing product engineering team. This is a high-impact role ideal for someone who enjoys hands-on development while also shaping front-end strategy and mentoring engineers across teams.

Location: Remote (Candidates must be based in Northern Ireland)

Employment Type: Full-time, Permanent

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Leading the design and implementation of scalable, accessible, and performant front-end applications
• Collaborating closely with Product Managers, Designers, and Engineering Leads to define the technical direction of key projects
• Driving best practices in front-end architecture, testing, and deployment pipelines
• Acting as a mentor and technical resource for other front-end engineers across the company
• Championing performance, maintainability, and design excellence in the codebase
• Contributing to cross-functional initiatives, architecture decisions, and design system evolution

What We’re Looking For:

• Proven experience leading front-end projects or platforms in a fast-paced environment
• Strong understanding of component architecture, state management, and testing strategies
• Familiarity with accessibility (a11y) standards and performance optimisation
• Experience working with CI/CD pipelines, Git-based workflows, and cloud environments (e.g., AWS)
• Excellent communication and leadership skills — able to influence without authority
• A pragmatic problem-solver who values collaboration, quality, and simplicity

Nice to Have:

• Experience with design systems (Storybook, Figma tokens, etc.)
• Familiarity with back-end integration (REST/GraphQL APIs)
• Prior experience in mentoring, coaching, or managing other engineers
• Exposure to server-side rendering or edge rendering techniques

Why Join?

• Remote-first culture across Northern Ireland — flexible working hours and location
• A culture of learning, collaboration, and support
• The opportunity to make a wide-reaching impact in a senior engineering role
• A strong engineering culture focused on growth, feedback, and innovation
• Competitive salary, private healthcare, generous holiday allowance, and equipment budget

If you’re a seasoned front-end engineer looking to lead, mentor, and build at scale — this could be the perfect fit.
