Front-End Developer (Full-Time, Remote)

We are seeking a Front-End Developer to design and build the user-facing components of our high-performance trading platform. You will play a key role in creating intuitive, data-rich interfaces that enable traders and analysts to work efficiently and effectively.

You will collaborate closely with the Back-End Development Team and the Project Manager to deliver seamless, integrated systems. A key factor is the front end developer's ability to deeply discuss approaches, trade-offs, limitations, and pros/cons with the development team, rather than reliance on any specific pattern or library.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain the front-end applications of our trading platform.

• Collaborate with back-end developers and the project manager to ensure smooth integration across systems.

• Design and implement multi-page layouts, menus, and workflows that balance usability with efficiency.

• Contribute to the design and user experience of the trading platform, performance & risk manager, and backtesting engine.

• Implement and optimize charting and data visualization features, leveraging libraries such as TradingView or D3.js to support a wide variety of chart types (tables, multi-line chart packs, etc.).

• Continuously refine the UI/UX to ensure clarity, speed, and intuitive navigation for end users.

• Strong communication skills and the ability to collaborate effectively with developers, project managers, and business stakeholders.

• A keen eye for design, simplicity, and efficiency, with the ability to translate complex requirements into clean, user-friendly interfaces.

• Knowledge of financial systems or trading concepts is preferred.

Core stack (mandatory)

• React 18 + Next.js (App Router), TypeScript, TailwindCSS.

• Strong command of state management for high-frequency data (e.g., Zustand, Redux Toolkit, useSyncExternalStore).

Real-time data & performance

• Hands-on with WebSockets / SSE and reconnection/backoff strategies; handling authenticated socket connections and topic resubscriptions.

• Experience implementing backpressure, buffering, coalescing, and windowing to prevent UI thrash under thousands of updates/minute.

• Data virtualization (react-virtualized, react-window) for large tables (orders, positions, trades).

• Familiar with Web Workers / OffscreenCanvas and message passing to keep the main thread responsive.

• Awareness of latency budgets and frame-time profiling using React DevTools and browser performance tools.

Charting & visualization

• Practical experience with professional charting libs (e.g., TradingView Charting Library, Lightweight Charts, Highcharts, D3)., * Experience with feature flags, staged rollouts, and monitoring with Sentry/OpenTelemetry.

Nice-to-haves

• Experience with desktop-class layouts (drag-to-dock panels, resizable grids).

• Exposure to WASM for heavy computations (e.g., indicator calculations).

• Familiarity with FIX/crypto venue nuances (tick sizes, lot sizes, trading sessions).
