Responsibilities
  • Design and build complex, workflow-driven user interfaces using TypeScript and React
  • Develop scalable front-end architecture for large-scale trading and control systems

  • Collaborate closely with cross-functional stakeholders to deliver business-critical enhancements

  • Experience building large-scale, production-grade front-end applications
  • Deep understanding of UI architecture, state management, and performance optimization
  • Experience integrating with distributed or real-time backend systems
  • Product-oriented mindset: able to work directly with business users, gather requirements, and deliver practical, scalable solutions
  • UX expertise: experience designing intuitive applications that distill complex, real-time data into clear, actionable user experiences, with a strong focus on user productivity
  • Ability to operate effectively in environments without dedicated UI design support
  • Strong communication skills and ability to work directly with business users
  • Experience in financial services, trading systems, or complex workflow platforms is a plus


Why Join Us
