The Client Platform team is seeking a Senior Frontend Engineer to help us raise the quality bar across our frontend ecosystem. You'll establish engineering excellence through improved architecture, performance optimization, and maintainable code patterns that ensure our platform delivers exceptional experiences to both internal engineering teams and our 35+ million customers. This role is a unique opportunity to have immediate impact on the foundation that hundreds of Postman engineers rely on daily.

Responsibilities

• Design and develop modular, well-documented SDKs and component libraries that serve both internal engineering teams as well as external developers, with focus on usability, accessibility, performance, and cross-platform compatibility.
• Architect extensible frontend systems with clear boundaries, well-defined interfaces, and appropriate abstraction layers that balance customization needs with consistency requirements
• Establish and evangelize architectural patterns that promote code quality, maintainability, and scalability across Postmans frontend ecosystem
• Champion engineering excellence through active participation in architectural decisions, mentorship of other engineers in frontend best practices, and creation of standards that become embedded in our engineering culture and measurably improve code quality
• Proactively partner with product and engineering to identify, prioritize, and eliminate technical debt through strategic refactoring and system enhancements, driving improved development velocity and platform reliability.

About You

• 8+ years in Frontend software engineering with demonstrated expertise in code quality, performance optimization, and engineering excellence.

• Deep understanding of modern web technologies and best practices (JavaScript, TypeScript, React, state management, testing frameworks, etc.).

• Experience designing and implementing maintainable, scalable frontend architectures for complex applications, including component libraries and SDKs that can be effectively reused across multiple systems.

• Proven track record of raising the quality bar in previous roles through both technical solutions and positive cultural impact.

• Additionally, you are someone who:

• Communicates clearly and listens effectively. You seek new perspectives and build trust with your colleagues.

• Loves the challenge of constraints and excels at finding creative solutions.

• Takes ownership of problems, not solutions, and celebrates success as a team.

• Experience with cross-platform applications (Electron or similar) and understanding the unique challenges of desktop/web hybrid environments.
• Creating widely-adopted (open source) libraries/SDKs with 1000+ active developers.
