Job description

Role Overview

We are seeking a highly skilled Frontend Architect to lead the technical strategy and design of our next‑generation web applications. In this role, you will champion the adoption of the latest Angular frameworks, drive the transition to a robust micro‑frontend architecture, and establish a scalable UI ecosystem using Atomic Design principles. You will work closely with backend engineering teams and must possess a strong working knowledge of Java Spring Boot and Domain‑Driven Design (DDD) to ensure seamless integration and architectural alignment across the entire stack.

Key Responsibilities

• Architect, design, and implement scalable frontend solutions using the latest Angular (standalone components, signals, strictly typed reactive forms, etc.).
• Lead migration and development of applications into a Micro‑Frontend architecture using techniques such as Webpack Module Federation, single‑spa, or similar to enable independent deployment and scaling by autonomous teams.
• Establish and enforce a UI component library built on Atomic Design principles (Atoms, Molecules, Organisms, Templates, Pages) to ensure high reusability, consistency, and maintainability across all digital products.
• Bridge the gap between frontend and backend systems, working closely with backend architects to design API contracts and align frontend modules with backend microservices built on Java Spring Boot.
• Translate complex business rules into technical architecture, ensuring frontend bounded contexts map logically to backend DDD structures.
• Mentor senior and lead developers, conduct rigorous code reviews, define coding standards, testing practices, and CI/CD pipelines for frontend artifacts.
• Continuously monitor and improve application performance, bundle sizes, rendering strategies (SSR/SSG), and core web vitals.

Required Qualifications

• 12+ years of software engineering experience, with at least 4+ years in a Lead or Architectural role focusing on frontend technologies.
• Deep, hands‑on mastery of the latest Angular ecosystem, RxJS, NgRx (or similar state management), and modern JavaScript/TypeScript.
• Proven experience designing and implementing Micro‑Frontend architectures at enterprise scale.
• Extensive experience building highly modular UI libraries utilizing the Atomic Design pattern, integrating with tools like Storybook.
• Strong background in frontend testing strategies (Jest, Cypress, Playwright) and modern build tools (Webpack, Vite, esbuild).
• Familiarity with Java Spring Boot ecosystems; ability to read, review, and collaborate on API design.
• Strong conceptual understanding of DDD concepts (Entities, Aggregates, Bounded Contexts, Ubiquitous Language) to align frontend architecture with backend domain model.
• Experience consuming and helping design RESTful APIs.
