Frontend Engineer

About the Role

Build and scale the core user experience for a retail trading platform. You will own key frontend systems end to end, turning real-time market data into fast, clear, and intuitive tools for traders while partnering with design and backend engineering.

What You'll Do

• Build and maintain accessible, scalable web applications and reusable UI libraries.

• Create high-performance interactive charts and real-time visualizations that support trading decisions.

• Improve application speed and reliability through caching and performance optimization.

• Integrate REST APIs and WebSocket streams, and manage robust client-side cached state.

• Maintain CI/CD pipelines for automated builds, previews, testing, and rollbacks.

What We're Looking For

• One to ten years of professional frontend engineering experience.

• Strong skills in React, TypeScript, JavaScript, CSS, and the Web Animations API (WAAPI).

• Experience building latency-sensitive, real-time interfaces, such as products for trading, gaming, or casino use cases.

• Hands-on trading experience in crypto, perpetuals, or other markets, or frontend experience building for a trading firm or exchange.

• Experience with REST APIs, WebSockets, and frontend testing tools such as Jest, Vitest, or Cypress.

• A recent public GitHub history and polished live frontend work, such as a deployed product, personal site, or live demos.

• Ability to write production-quality code independently and use AI tools to complement, not replace, core engineering work.
