Job Description

We are looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer to join our engineering team and evolve our React web application, already live in production. There are plans to integrate it with Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) in a headless model — content delivered via GraphQL, with authors editing directly on live pages through the AEM Universal Editor. The role requires strong TypeScript/React experience and comfort working across both the existing codebase and the new AEM integration.

Responsibilities

Frontend Development

• Maintain and extend the existing React application, written in TypeScript and JavaScript (ES6+)
• Write clean, well-structured, and well-tested code
• Follow established frontend architecture patterns, coding standards, and development practices
• Optimise application performance — code-splitting and lazy-loading of heavy components, efficient component-level data fetching, and Core Web Vitals (especially LCP on media-heavy pages)
• Build responsive, accessible interfaces in line with WCAG standards
• Contribute to CI/CD pipeline setup, testing strategy, and the wider development lifecycle

AEM Headless Integration

• Integrate the React application with AEM in a headless model, fetching content via GraphQL (persisted queries)
• Instrument React components with Universal Editor data attributes so authors can edit content directly on live pages
• Collaborate with AEM backend developers on content fragment models and GraphQL schemas
• Maintain a clear separation between the frontend presentation layer and the AEM content layer

Code Quality and Delivery

• Take part in code reviews and code audits, providing practical feedback and clear follow-up actions
• Drive refactoring and modernization work, keeping code quality consistent across the codebase
• Participate in sprint planning, estimation, and technical decision-making

Collaboration

• Work closely with Product Managers, UX/UI Designers, AEM backend developers, and QA Engineers
• Explain technical decisions clearly to both technical and non-technical colleagues

Qualifications

• 5+ years of professional software development experience, with at least 3+ years in frontend development for consumer-facing web applications
• Strong experience building and maintaining large-scale web applications
• Strong proficiency in TypeScript and JavaScript (ES6+)
• Good working knowledge of React, including hooks, component lifecycle, and performance optimization
• Experience with state management libraries such as Redux Toolkit, Zustand, or MobX
• Working knowledge of CSS-in-JS, CSS Modules, or Tailwind CSS
• Proficiency with RESTful APIs, GraphQL, and asynchronous programming
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines such as GitHub Actions, CircleCI, or similar tooling
• Understanding of web performance principles, accessibility standards (WCAG), and responsive design
• Experience with testing frameworks such as Jest, React Testing Library, and Cypress or Playwright
• Good written and verbal communication skills

Nice to Have

• Experience with AEM as a Cloud Service (AEMaaCS)
• Hands-on experience with AEM in a headless model — content fragments, GraphQL, Universal Editor
• Experience with monorepo tooling such as Nx or Turborepo
• Familiarity with micro-frontend architecture patterns
• Experience with analytics tooling such as Adobe Analytics, Google Analytics, or LogRocket
• Contributions to open-source frontend projects

What We Offer

• A competitive salary and benefits package
• The chance to work on a high-profile web platform for a globally recognized brand
• A role with real ownership over the technical direction of a core digital product
• A collaborative team that values quality and practical delivery
