Description

Company Description Expert Institute is a high-performance, results-driven company committed to exceptional service, innovation, and continuous improvement. We thrive on collaboration and accountability and we all inherently have a relentless focus on exceeding client expectations. Our business, both growing and profitable, runs on a sales engine that is high-energy and performance-driven. We believe our people, culture, and core values are the foundation of our success. We’re in a growth phase where frontend quality and speed directly impact the business. We’re looking for a senior frontend engineer who wants deep technical ownership, autonomy, and the ability to shape how our UI is built—while staying hands-on in the code. The Opportunity This is a senior individual contributor role with broad architectural scope. You will not manage people, but you will own critical frontend decisions, unblock teams, and set technical direction through hands-on leadership and influence. You will join a team of approximately 20+ engineers and take ownership of an existing, business-critical frontend platform. Your focus will be on strengthening and evolving the foundation—improving performance, establishing and scaling a design system, and introducing architectural patterns that enable faster, more reliable delivery across teams. You’ll spend most of your time building, refining, and evolving our frontend systems—while choosing your focus carefully across multiple initiatives. We’re looking for someone who prioritizes impact over activity and thrives in a fast-moving, startup-style environment. Job Description Own and Build the Frontend Design, implement, and evolve frontend architecture across applications built with Angular, Next.js, Node.js, and Tailwind CSS. Write production code daily, focusing on scalable patterns rather than one-off solutions. Establish pragmatic conventions for components, state management, routing, data fetching, and performance. Drive a mobile-first, responsive approach that delivers a high-quality experience across devices. Make smart framework and tooling decisions, balancing speed of delivery with long-term maintainability. Work closely with designers to translate product ideas into reusable, composable UI components. Raise the Bar Through Code Set frontend standards and best practices by example—through code reviews, RFCs, and shared patterns. Help define testing strategies (unit, integration, E2E) that protect quality without slowing teams down. Instrument frontend behavior using tools like FullStory to inform product and UX decisions. Lead Without Managing Act as the go-to engineer for complex frontend and UI challenges. Mentor other engineers through pairing, reviews, and technical guidance. Participate in architecture discussions and help teams make clear, informed tradeoffs. Operate with Ownership & Focus Work across multiple initiatives at once, prioritizing the work that delivers the most value. Partner closely with product, design, and backend engineers to ship meaningful features. Balance short-term wins with long-term health—knowing when to refactor and when to move fast. Take full ownership of outcomes, not just tickets. Qualifications Must-Haves 8+ years of frontend engineering experience, including senior-level IC work with architectural responsibility. Strong expertise in JavaScript/TypeScript and frameworks such as Angular and React/Next.js. Experience with modern CSS approaches, including Tailwind CSS or similar utility-first frameworks. A track record of building and scaling frontend systems used by multiple teams. Strong instincts around performance, accessibility, and cross-browser compatibility. Experience establishing and monitoring frontend performance SLAs. Nice-to-Haves Experience in startup or high-growth environments. Experience working in monorepos or shared frontend codebases. A bias toward simple solutions that scale. Additional Information What Success Looks Like You’re shipping meaningful frontend improvements regularly—not just planning them. Teams move faster because shared patterns and components reduce friction. The UI feels cohesive, intentional, and scalable as the product grows. Frontend decisions are clear, documented, and easy for others to follow. You’re seen as a trusted technical owner who consistently prioritizes the right work. What We Offer Competitive salary, including an annual discretionary bonus. Comprehensive benefits (medical, dental, vision, disability, life insurance, mental health support). Paid time off and company-paid holidays. 401(k) retirement plan with an employer match. Why Join Us? This is an opportunity to make a real impact in a growing company. If you’re excited about shaping company culture, driving customer engagement, and owning initiatives, we’d love to connect! All your information will be kept confidential according to EEO guidelines. Compensation: USD160000 - USD180000 - yearly
