Job description

Solvd Inc. is a rapidly growing AI-native consulting and technology services firm delivering enterprise transformation across cloud, data, software engineering, and artificial intelligence. We work with industry-leading organizations to design, build, and operationalize technology solutions that drive measurable business outcomes.

Following the acquisition of Tooploox, a premier AI and product development company, Solvd now offers true end-to-end delivery—from strategic advisory and solution design to custom AI development and enterprise-scale implementation. Our capability centers combine deep technical expertise, proven delivery methodologies, and sector-specific knowledge to address complex business challenges quickly and effectively.

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer with a strong frontend focus to join a global e-commerce engineering team building fast, discoverable, and frictionless web experiences. While this is a full stack role, the primary responsibility is designing and delivering frontend features with a strong emphasis on technical SEO, organic search performance, page speed, and crawlability.

You'll work across the stack when needed — APIs, rendering strategies, backend services — but your home is the frontend. You operate autonomously, navigate ambiguity well, and ship solutions that improve both user experience and search visibility at scale.

What you'll do

• Build and maintain UI applications and components with deep understanding of SSR, CSR, hydration behavior, and their implications for crawlability, indexation, performance, and UX.

• Translate SEO requirements into scalable engineering solutions — metadata frameworks, canonicalization strategies, internal linking patterns, structured data, sitemap support, and robots directives.

• Integrate frontend applications with backend services and APIs in close collaboration with backend and platform teams.

• Monitor and improve page performance signals that influence organic search outcomes, including Core Web Vitals, rendering efficiency, and content delivery strategies.

• Work independently in ambiguous problem spaces — clarify requirements, propose options, and converge on pragmatic solutions that balance SEO, performance, maintainability, and UX.

• Partner with product, design, content, SEO, and analytics teams to implement search-friendly experiences aligned with business goals.

• Communicate execution plans, tradeoffs, and progress clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• Contribute to keeping software and tooling current with modern best practices in frontend engineering, web architecture, and technical SEO.

What you bring

• Strong expertise in modern frontend development: React, TypeScript/JavaScript, CSS/SCSS, and HTML.

• In-depth knowledge of SSR and CSR patterns in React and their performance, SEO, and UX implications.

• Strong understanding of technical SEO principles for modern web applications — crawlability, indexation, canonical tags, redirects, metadata, schema markup, internal linking, URL structure, and duplicate content prevention.

• Experience building web experiences that support strong search performance through sound rendering decisions, semantic markup, accessibility, and page speed optimization.

• Comfortable contributing to backend implementation when needed — REST or GraphQL APIs, Node.js services, caching, CI/CD.

• Experience collaborating cross-functionally with SEO, content, analytics, product, and design stakeholders.

• Ability to evaluate engineering tradeoffs across performance, maintainability, experimentation, and search visibility.

Preferred qualifications

• Next.js and GraphQL experience.

• Technical SEO implementation experience on large-scale websites or ecommerce platforms.

• Schema.org structured data and rich result optimization.

• XML sitemaps, robots.txt management, redirects, and canonical URL strategy at scale.

• Tagging and analytics platforms — Adobe DTM/Launch, Tealium, or Google Tag Manager.

• CMS experience — CoreMedia, Magnolia, Contentful, AEM, or similar.

• A/B testing platforms — Adobe Target, AB Tasty, or Evergage.

• Ecommerce platform experience — Salesforce Commerce Cloud, Hybris, Shopify, or similar.

• SEO tooling and diagnostics workflows — Google Search Console, crawling tools, page performance tooling, log-based analysis.

When you join Solvd, you'll…

• Shape real-world AI-driven projects across key industries, working with clients from startup innovation to enterprise transformation.

• Be part of a global team with equal opportunities for collaboration across continents and cultures.

• Thrive in an inclusive environment that prioritizes continuous learning, innovation, and ethical AI standards.
