Overview

Paramount Skydance Corp. is seeking a Senior Front-End Developer to lead the development of high-performance, user-centric web applications that power the next generation of Quality Engineering platforms. This is a modern engineering role designed for a developer who has mastered the balance between expert-level coding and advanced AI-assisted development.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and build high‑quality React applications using TypeScript, optimizing boilerplate code, refactoring, and improving feature development speed.
• Act as the primary filter for AI‑generated output, auditing and correcting code to meet Paramount Skydance’s architectural and security standards.
• Rapidly translate Figma design comps into reusable UI components and design systems, leveraging AI to bridge the gap between design intent and production‑ready code.
• Build the front-end for internal QE platforms, including automation dashboards, triage tools, and AI‑assisted testing interfaces.
• Implement real‑time data visualizations and telemetry streams, ensuring even complex, AI‑curated data is presented with clarity and performance.
• Ensure that all code, whether created by humans or AI, meets high standards for performance, WCAG accessibility, and reliability.
• Audit AI suggestions for potential vulnerabilities, ensuring that sensitive data handling and API interactions remain compliant with enterprise security standards.
• Implement robust testing strategies (Jest, Cypress, Playwright) to provide a safety net for rapid, AI‑assisted iterations.

Required Qualifications

• 7+ years of professional experience in front-end or full-stack development.
• Demonstrated experience using Claude Code, Gemini Code Assist, or equivalent LLM‑based coding agents.
• Deep proficiency in React Hooks, state management (Zustand, Redux, or Context), and component‑driven design.
• Solid ability to identify errors or bad patterns in AI‑generated code and manually correct these issues to meet senior‑level engineering standards.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience building developer productivity tools or internal engineering dashboards.
• Familiarity with data visualization (D3.js, Recharts) and real‑time interfaces (WebSockets).
• Experience with cloud platforms (GCP, AWS) and CI/CD workflows.
• Ability to achieve 10x output by effectively prompting and managing AI agents without sacrificing code quality.
• Refusal to accept "working code" that violates long‑term maintainability or security standards.
• Understanding of how front-end applications integrate with complex backend data pipelines and AI‑driven quality insights.

Success Metrics

• Velocity & Quality: Delivery of high‑quality features at an accelerated pace through expert application of AI tooling.
• Standardization: Successful implementation of reusable patterns that pass all security and architectural audits.
• Efficiency: Significant reduction in manual UI development time through adoption of AI‑assisted workflows.
