The Role
We're looking for a Senior Front-End Developer who enjoys building exceptional digital experiences alongside designers, strategists, and fellow engineers. This isn't a role for someone who simply executes tickets — we're looking for a collaborative problem solver who brings ideas, challenges assumptions, and helps shape the products they build.
You'll work across a wide variety of client engagements, from marketing websites and ecommerce platforms to digital products and emerging experiences. Because our team is lean, you'll have the opportunity to own meaningful work, contribute to technical direction, and jump into new challenges as projects evolve.
If you enjoy solving complex technical problems, thrive in a collaborative agency environment, and like building products where engineering has a seat at the table, we'd love to hear from you.
What You'll Do
Build modern digital experiences using React, Next.js, TypeScript, and other modern front-end technologies.
Partner closely with designers, strategists, and fellow developers from discovery through launch to create thoughtful digital products.
Contribute technical ideas early in projects, helping evaluate approaches, tradeoffs, and implementation strategies.
Own development work from implementation through delivery while maintaining high standards for performance, accessibility, and quality.
Participate in code reviews, share knowledge, and help foster a collaborative engineering culture.
Identify risks early, communicate proactively, and help teams solve problems before they become blockers.
Explore new technologies and AI-assisted development workflows that improve how we build.
What You'll Bring
Experience building modern web applications with React, Next.js, and TypeScript.
Experience delivering digital products, marketing websites, or ecommerce experiences.
Experience working in a fast-paced agency or consulting environment.
Strong understanding of front-end architecture, component-based development, and responsive design.
A collaborative approach to product development—you enjoy partnering with design and strategy, not simply receiving requirements.
Strong communication skills and the ability to explain technical decisions to both technical and non-technical teammates.
Curiosity, ownership, and a proactive mindset.
Nice to Have:
- Experience with ecommerce platforms
- Prototyping experience
- Personal GitHub or open-source contributions
- Familiarity with AI-assisted development tools such as Cursor or GitHub Copilot
