Responsibilities

• Set frontend technical direction. Own architectural standards, patterns, and the code review bar across desktop, browser extension, productivity suite integration, and mobile app. The health of the frontend codebase is your direct responsibility
• Manage the team. Run 1:1s, set goals, give feedback, hire, mentor. You own the team's performance and growth
• Own the release process across surfaces. Multiple platforms ship on different cadences — including off-cycle deployments and app store review submissions
• Ship the hardest features end-to-end. Stay hands-on. Lead implementation of the most complex, cross-cutting work, partnering with product and design. Push on polish, interaction, and perf — our users are detail-oriented professionals and they notice
• Partner across the stack. Coordinate laterally with the backend, infrastructure, QA, and AI teams. Work closely with the head of product and design partners; bring frontend feasibility into design conversations early. You won't write backend code, but you'll read API contracts fluently and debug end-to-end

Skills

• Multi-surface experience across at least two platforms: web, browser extensions, productivity software integrations, or mobile (React Native preferred)
• You've managed engineers. Direct people management including 1:1s, performance reviews, hiring, and growth
• Strong design partnership skills. You implement designs well but aren't a pixel-pusher. You push back when interactions could be better
• Comfortable across the full stack. You read API contracts and debug end-to-end independently
• Experience building or scaling React Native apps from early stages
• Background in financial software, investment technology, or related fintech
• Track record improving frontend performance, build times, or developer experience at scale
