Senior Full Stack Engineer - Front end focused
Location: Hybrid - DFW / Grapevine, TX
Summary
SafetyChain is building the next generation of enterprise software for the supply chain-systems that help operators see clearly, decide confidently, and act fast in real time. We're assembling a senior engineering group in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex to build this platform from the ground up using a modern, AI-first development environment. This role is for a frontend engineer who cares deeply about UI quality, interaction design, performance, and clarity at scale-and who wants to help define how complex operational systems feel and function for real users.
What You'll Do
As a senior frontend / UI engineer, you'll help define and build the user-facing foundation of SafetyChain's next-gen platform-enterprise-grade, AI-enabled, and designed for complex, high-stakes operational workflows.
You will:
- Design and build rich, high-performance user interfaces in a modern TypeScript-based frontend stack.
- Own frontend architecture decisions around state management, data fetching, caching, offline behavior, and UI composition.
- Build and evolve shared UI primitives, patterns, and design-system foundations that scale across teams and products.
- Translate complex domain workflows (manufacturing, quality, compliance, operations) into clear, usable, and resilient interfaces.
- Partner closely with Product, Design, Backend, and AI/ML teams to shape experiences-not just implement screens.
- Leverage AI-assisted development workflows (code generation, scaffolding, test generation, refactoring) to accelerate delivery without sacrificing quality.
- Ensure UI performance, accessibility, and reliability for enterprise users operating in real-world environments (factories, tablets, shared terminals).
- Contribute to an "office-first when collaboration matters" culture focused on high-bandwidth problem solving and shared ownership.
What You Bring
You don't need to be a backend expert-but you must care deeply about frontend craft and be comfortable reasoning about complex application behavior.
Core Experience
- 7+ years building modern, production-grade web applications (enterprise SaaS strongly preferred).
- Deep experience with TypeScript and modern frontend frameworks (React or equivalent).
- Strong understanding of frontend state, async data flows, caching strategies, and UI performance.
- Experience building interfaces that support complex workflows, dense data, and power users.
- Comfort working in a monorepo or shared codebase with strong engineering conventions.
- Ability to collaborate in a hybrid environment with in-office time when high-context work benefits the team.
Frontend / UI Strengths
- Expertise in component-driven development and scalable UI architecture.
- Experience building or contributing to design systems, shared components, or UI platforms.
- Strong intuition for UX tradeoffs, interaction design, and usability-even without being a designer.
- Experience supporting multiple form factors (web, tablet, desktop) and operational environments.
- Familiarity with accessibility, performance profiling, and browser/runtime constraints.
- Experience integrating AI-powered features into user-facing products.
Bonus (Nice to Have)
- Exposure to backend APIs and comfort collaborating on API contracts.
- Experience in manufacturing, logistics, healthcare, or other operational SaaS domains.
How You Think (This Is What We Screen Hardest For)
- You reason from first principles, not cargo-cult patterns.
- You optimize for outcomes and clarity, not abstract elegance.
- You care about simplicity, legibility, and making the right thing easy.
- You don't chase platform work unless it clearly improves developer or user experience.
- You enjoy working with senior peers who challenge assumptions and move quickly.
Why Join Now
You'd be joining at the moment the next-gen SafetyChain experience is being defined. You'll influence frontend architecture, UI standards, developer workflows, and how AI-enabled systems are presented to real operators.
This is a rare opportunity to shape a serious enterprise UI from the ground up-without legacy baggage-and to build software that's used every day in high-impact, real-world environments.
