Requirements

• We are looking for a talented Frontend Engineer to design, build, and maintain user-facing features across our web, desktop, and mobile experiences.
• In this role, you will write clean, well-tested, and maintainable code that directly shapes the customer experience on the Text Request platform. Working closely with Product Managers, QA, and cross-functional teammates, you will bring features to life while advocating for usability, performance, accessibility, and high technical standards.
• If you are a proactive developer who cares about real-world customer outcomes, enjoys working with modern web technologies, and embraces collaborative agile engineering, we’d love to hear from you.
• What You’ll Be Doing
• Feature Development: Design, code, test, and refactor web, desktop, and mobile user interfaces using modern frontend technologies.
• Product Collaboration: Work alongside Product Owners and Managers to refine user stories, define acceptance criteria, and estimate work to ensure we deliver meaningful value to users.
• Testing & Quality: Maintain a strong unit and component testing discipline, collaborate with QA colleagues across the testing pyramid, and perform ad-hoc exploratory testing.
• Continuous Delivery: Maintain and build on CI/CD pipelines, troubleshoot build issues, and support smooth deployment processes.
• Engineering Practice: Follow and shape design patterns, flag technical debt, participate in constructive code reviews, and build with security, performance, and accessibility in mind.
• What We’re Looking For
• Modern Frontend Tech: Proven experience building web applications using modern component-based frameworks like Angular, React, or Vue (we use Angular, but welcome transferable framework skills).
• Core Web Stack: Strong hands-on proficiency with TypeScript/JavaScript, HTML5, and CSS.
• API Integration: Hands-on experience consuming and integrating RESTful or web APIs.
• Testing Discipline: Solid unit and component testing habits built directly into your day-to-day workflow.
• Pragmatic AI Usage: Practical experience using AI coding assistants in your daily workflow—with the critical mindset to critique, refine, or reject generated code.
• Agile & DevOps: Familiarity with agile methodologies (Scrum/Kanban, TDD/BDD) and experience working with Git and CI/CD pipelines.
• Communication: Clear communication skills, with the ability to explain technical ideas and collaborate effectively across teams.
• Specific Angular experience, including state management and component testing.
• Experience building desktop or mobile apps using web technologies (we use Electron and Capacitor ).
• Experience with real-time UI features (e.g. SignalR, WebSockets).
• Full-stack capability or backend experience with C#/.NET (or similar) and basic SQL/Azure knowledge.
• Experience working with design systems and a strong eye for UI/UX accessibility.
• Experience leveraging AI tools beyond code generation (e.g., test generation, documentation, legacy refactoring).
