Remote Frontend Architect & Tech Lead
graingerChicago (IL)
About the role
Grainger seeks a Staff Engineer/Tech Lead to shape frontend strategy for Customer Order Entry. You will drive React and Next.js development, own architecture decisions, and deliver scalable, accessible interfaces that support complex order workflows. You will partner with backend teams on API contracts, advance test automation (Jest, Cypress, Playwright), and raise engineering maturity through mentoring while balancing hands-on coding (roughly 60%) and leadership work.
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.
