Who we're looking for

At TFS, we're building next-generation products that redefine mobility for millions of customers worldwide. We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer - Frontend, an individual contributor who combines strong front-end engineering skills with the technical maturity to drive solutions end-to-end, influence peers, and take ownership of complex features across the stack.

You're past the point of just executing tickets. You think about the system, push back when something doesn't make sense, and help the team move faster by raising the quality of everything you touch.

Key Responsibilities
  • Design and build high-quality front-end features using modern React and Next.js patterns, with a strong eye for performance and user experience
  • Build and maintain backend API services that support front-end product needs, including RESTful and GraphQL endpoints
  • Take ownership of features from design through deployment - including testing, observability, and post-launch monitoring
  • Participate actively in technical design discussions, contributing well-reasoned proposals and tradeoff analysis
  • Debug and troubleshoot complex issues across the front-end and API layers - from UI rendering bugs to slow API responses
  • Write clean, well-tested, maintainable code and hold a high bar in code reviews
  • Mentor junior and mid-level engineers through pairing, code reviews, and knowledge sharing
  • Collaborate with Product, Design, and cross-functional engineering teams to deliver impactful features
  • Identify and address tech debt, performance issues, and reliability gaps proactively


What you bring
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or related field, or equivalent practical experience
  • 5+ years of software engineering experience with a strong front-end focus
  • Solid expertise in React and Next.js, including SSR, SSG, App Router, and client/server component patterns
  • Strong proficiency in TypeScript
  • Experience with Tailwind CSS and component libraries like shadcn/ui or similar
  • Familiarity with state management using Zustand, Redux Toolkit, or equivalent
  • Experience with schema validation using Zod or similar libraries
  • Ability to design and build RESTful and GraphQL APIs, with solid understanding of API contracts, error handling, and type safety
  • Experience deploying and working with front-end applications on AWS, including:
    • CloudFront for CDN and edge caching
    • S3 for static asset hosting
    • API Gateway + Lambda for serverless API services
  • Good understanding of front-end performance: code splitting, lazy loading, caching strategies (SWR, React Query), and Core Web Vitals
  • Experience debugging across the stack using browser devtools, network inspection, and log analysis
  • Experience with testing: unit (Vitest/Jest), component (Testing Library), and E2E (Playwright/Cypress)
  • Clear communicator - comfortable discussing technical decisions with teammates and stakeholders


Added bonus if you have
  • Experience in the financial services, banking, or insurance industry
  • Familiarity with monorepo tooling (Turborepo, Nx) and modern build systems (Vite, esbuild)
  • Experience with event-driven architecture on AWS using EventBridge, SQS, or SNS
  • Exposure to design system contribution or component library development
  • Experience with React Native or cross-platform mobile development
  • Exposure to GenAI tooling integration in front-end products
  • AWS certifications (Developer Associate or Cloud Practitioner)
