About the role

Senior Front-End & BFF Developer

Role Summary: Owns the user experience layer and Backend-for-Frontend capabilities. This role designs and builds modern, intuitive, AI-enabled web experiences while also developing BFF services that aggregate, tailor, and orchestrate backend capabilities for specific user journeys. The role bridges front-end engineering, API composition, user experience, and domain workflow enablement.

Key Responsibilities: Design and develop modern, responsive, accessible web applications for capabilities across pricing, underwriting, data, workspace, and operational experiences. Build and maintain Backend-for-Frontend services that aggregate APIs, compose domain data, manage experience-specific orchestration, and simplify front-end integration. Create user-facing workflows that incorporate AI agents, recommendations, conversational interactions, decision support, task automation, and human-in-the-loop review where appropriate. Develop reusable component libraries, UI patterns, design system assets, forms, interaction models, and front-end standards for consistent delivery across teams. Partner with Product Owners, Analysts, Designers, Engineers, and business SMEs to turn requirements and process flows into intuitive, production-ready experiences. Integrate front-end applications with APIs, event streams, identity providers, BFF services, agent services, analytics, telemetry, and observability tooling. Own performance, accessibility, security, responsiveness, browser compatibility, test automation, and production support for front-end and BFF capabilities. Define and mentor front-end engineering practices including state management, API integration, test strategy, release automation, and operational monitoring. Use AI coding agents and development copilots to accelerate implementation while maintaining strong design, review, and quality standards.

Preferred Experience / Capabilities:

React, Next.js, TypeScript, modern JavaScript/Node.js ecosystems, component-based architecture, and front-end build tooling.
Backend-for-Frontend architecture, API composition, GraphQL or REST integration patterns, experience orchestration, and server-side rendering concepts.
Authentication/authorization patterns, secure session handling, identity integration, and user entitlement-aware experiences.
Design systems, accessibility standards, responsive design, performance optimization, automated UI testing, and production observability.
AWS-hosted web applications, CI/CD, infrastructure automation, and production support practices.
Experience designing AI-enabled user experiences, agent interfaces, workflow automation, or conversational/productivity experiences preferred. Differentiators
Explicitly responsible for both the front-end experience and BFF layer, reducing dependency on generic backend teams for experience-specific composition.
Expected to lead experience architecture, not just implement screens.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
