  • We are looking for a Mid-Level Front-End Engineer with strong UX/UI sensibilities, someone who cares deeply about user experience, understands design principles, and can translate thoughtful UI into scalable, maintainable front-end architecture.
  • If you enjoy building elegant interfaces within a headless ecosystem and contributing to a growing design system while exploring AI-driven user experiences, we would love to meet you.
You'll Work On:
  • Developing features within a headless, API-driven architecture
  • Translating UX designs and wireframes into polished, production-ready interfaces
  • Contributing to and evolving our design system
  • Building reusable, scalable UI components
  • Improving usability, accessibility, and booking flows in complex transactional applications
  • Collaborating with product, design, backend, and AI teams
  • Leveraging AI-assisted development tools to improve engineering velocity
  • Contributing to modernization efforts to transition toward scalable solutions
  • Supporting AI-driven product features such as intelligent search, recommendations, and conversational interfaces
  • Reviewing and validating code to ensure quality, scalability, and maintainability

Our Technology Environment:
  • JavaScript (ES6+) and growing TypeScript adoption
  • React (Next.js exposure is a plus)
  • SCSS / modern CSS architecture
  • RESTful APIs & headless integrations
  • AI-powered services integrated into search and user flows
  • Webpack and modern build tooling
  • Git
  • Ongoing modernization of legacy Backbone/templated PHP systems into scalable, component-driven architectures

Skills:
  • 3–5 years of professional front-end experience building production applications
  • Strong understanding of modern JavaScript (ES6+)
  • Experience with React or similar component-based frameworks
  • Experience working with APIs in headless environments
  • Solid understanding of UX principles (usability, accessibility, interaction design)
  • Strong UI implementation skills (layout systems, spacing, typography, responsive design)
  • Experience building reusable, design-system-aligned components
  • Ability to balance new feature development with ongoing system improvements
  • Strong communication skills and collaborative mindset
  • Curiosity and openness toward AI-enhanced user experiences
  • Experience using AI-assisted development tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, etc.) and the ability to evaluate and validate AI-generated output.
Bonus Points:
  • Experience contributing to or maintaining a design system
  • Experience working closely with designers in Figma
  • TypeScript experience
  • Familiarity with Next.js or SSR concepts
  • Experience modernizing legacy applications
  • Experience integrating AI-driven features (chat, recommendations, predictive UX)
  • Experience in high-traffic, transactional applications (e-commerce, travel, SaaS)

What You Can Expect:
  • Real impact on user-facing applications used at scale
  • Opportunity to influence UX decisions in complex booking flows
  • Exposure to both greenfield features and brownfield modernization
  • Involvement in AI-driven product evolution
  • Collaborative, technically driven team environment
