About the Role
This is a frontend engineering role at a fintech startup building a retail trading platform focused on speed, clarity, and trust. You will own major frontend systems end to end, translating complex real-time market data into interfaces that feel intuitive and empowering for everyday traders. The work sits at the intersection of performance engineering and product craft, and it ships fast.
What You'll Do
Design, build, and maintain full-featured web applications and reusable UI libraries that are fast, accessible, and scalable.
Develop high-performance, interactive charts and real-time visualizations that help users make informed trading decisions.
Optimize application speed and reliability using advanced caching strategies to achieve sub-second load times.
Integrate complex REST APIs and WebSocket streams while managing robust client-side cached state.
Configure and maintain CI/CD pipelines for automated builds, previews, testing, and seamless rollbacks.
What We're Looking For
Professional experience building latency-sensitive, real-time frontend interfaces where response time is critical, such as in trading, gaming, or similar high-stakes domains.
A track record of shipped frontend work you can point to: a live product, strong public repository, or experience at a well-known tech or fintech company.
Proficiency with React, TypeScript, and JavaScript across the full web stack.
Strong command of CSS and WAAPI for animations and interface polish.
Familiarity with testing tools such as Jest, Vitest, or Cypress.
An active GitHub profile showing recent, real coding activity.
Authorization to work in the US without sponsorship (TN visa holders are welcome); willingness to work on-site in New York City.
Compensation & Benefits
Base salary range: $185,000 to $300,000 USD annually. Visa sponsorship is available (TN visa accepted; other sponsorship types not supported).
Location
On-site in New York, NY, United States. Remote work is not available for this role.
