Job Summary

We are much more than our job descriptions, but here is where you will begin:

Responsibilities

• Lead a small team of frontend engineers building CheQs web experience, from our credit dashboard and onboarding flows to AI-driven personalisation surfaces, while staying hands-on in the codebase (around 50-60% of your time).
• Own the technical design of key features: break down requirements, write design docs, and set the implementation approach for the team.
• Write production-quality React and TypeScript code, and set the standard for component quality, test coverage and code reviews.
• Drive improvements across our design system, performance (Core Web Vitals, lazy loading, code splitting) and mobile-first web infrastructure, working closely with the Engineering Manager and senior engineers.
• Own frontend security in your area: apply Content Security Policies, guard against XSS, CSRF and clickjacking, and keep third-party dependencies safe.
• Partner with product managers, designers and backend engineers to scope work, estimate timelines and flag technical risks early.
• Mentor engineers through pairing, code reviews and design discussions, and help interview frontend candidates as the team grows.

Requirements

• 7+ years of frontend engineering experience, including at least 1-2 years leading a team or owning a major product area as a tech lead.
• Deep hands-on expertise in React.js, TypeScript, HTML5/CSS3 and mobile-first responsive web development.
• Experience with state management, design systems or component libraries, and build tooling such as Webpack, Vite and npm.
• A solid grasp of web performance, Core Web Vitals, and cross-browser and cross-device behaviour (iOS Safari, Chrome Mobile and others).
• Working knowledge of frontend security: CSP configuration, XSS and CSRF prevention, secure authentication flows, and dependency scanning (npm audit, Snyk), with awareness of the OWASP Top 10.
• Comfort with testing (unit, integration, end-to-end) and CI/CD pipelines.
• A track record of mentoring engineers and raising code quality through reviews.
• Clear communication with product, design and backend partners.
• Experience in a high-growth startup or product company; fintech or consumer apps is a plus.
