Job description

Responsibilities:

• Own the frontend technical direction for banking: onboarding, the unified banking and payments experience, and banking product surfaces.
• Design and build a Banking frontend SDK - hooks and UI components - packaged for external integration, with documentation and framework integrations.
• Shape the shared component library and a micro-frontend approach that keep product surfaces consistent.
• Define frontend coding and component standards across the platform.
• Own the frontend observability and test-automation bar so regressions are caught before customers feel them.
• Mentor frontend engineers and help set what great looks like when hiring.
• Partner across product and design to turn complex flows into coherent experiences.

Requirements:

• Significant experience as a senior or staff-level frontend engineer, owning complex web applications in production.
• Deep expertise in frontend architecture, component and design systems, and state management at scale.
• Strong grasp of frontend performance, accessibility, and correctness.
• Excellent technical communication and the ability to lead initiatives across teams without formal authority.
• Fluency in a modern TypeScript and React frontend stack.

Good to Have:

• Experience designing and shipping SDKs or libraries for external consumption.
• Experience with micro-frontends or Module Federation.
• Contract-driven frontend development against a backend-for-frontend with generated types.
• Ownership of a design system or component library used across multiple product surfaces.
• Experience building frontend observability and end-to-end test automation.

What Success Looks Like:

• The banking frontend - onboarding, product surfaces, and the unified experience is fast, correct, and consistent across every surface.
• The Banking SDK is shipped, documented, and adopted by external integrators without hand-holding.
• Engineers across product teams ship faster because of the component library, standards, and shared foundations you've built.
• Regressions are caught in test automation before customers encounter them.
• You've raised the technical ceiling of frontend engineering at OpenFX, not just delivered individual screens.
