Job Overview:

As a Front-End Engineer, you own the delivery of features that span UI logic, component architecture, and integration with back-end systems. While your strengths lie in front-end technologies, you operate with full-stack awareness — understanding service behavior, contributing to API design, and ensuring end-to-end functionality. You take pride in delivering high-quality, performant, and maintainable interfaces that enable business outcomes.

You work independently on moderately complex projects, bringing clarity to ambiguity and thoughtful trade-offs to the table. You contribute to shared component libraries, design systems, and front-end infrastructure, and collaborate with engineers across the stack to ensure seamless, resilient integration. You help raise the bar for accessibility, testability, and cross-platform consistency.

You are expected to use AI tools as part of your workflow — including code assistants, test generators, and documentation tools — to reduce friction and increase delivery speed. You’re responsible for testing everything you ship, across unit, integration, and visual validation layers. You participate in front-end CI health, visual regression tooling, and performance instrumentation as part of delivering high-quality software.

You work closely with designers, product managers, and sometimes business stakeholders — helping to translate product ideas into implementation plans and improving the user experience through thoughtful feedback and collaboration. You help ensure that front-end delivery is aligned with product intent and user expectations.

What you’ll do:

• Own the implementation of end-to-end features, including UI components, state management, and integration with APIs.
• Use AI tools to increase velocity — whether through intelligent code generation, test scaffolding, or documentation.
• Write and maintain unit, integration, and E2E tests; perform visual and behavioral QA as needed.
• Collaborate with designers to uphold accessibility and design standards, and contribute to our design system.
• Investigate and resolve performance or cross-browser issues; contribute to front-end observability and tooling.
• Work directly with product managers and stakeholders to clarify scope, align on UX trade-offs, and deliver customer value.
• Participate in architecture discussions and contribute to the evolution of front-end best practices..

Requirements:

• Proficient in modern frameworks (React, Vue), TypeScript, and modular component design.
• Demonstrated use of AI tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, test generation tools, lint/config assistants) to streamline development.
• Strong understanding of accessibility, performance optimization, and responsive design.
• Experience working with APIs and contributing to full-stack solutions.
• Comfortable owning testing strategy across the stack for the features you build.
• Effective communicator and collaborator, with experience working cross-functionally.
  

What We Will Give You: 

• Competitive annual salary ranging from $90,000 to $115,000+, reflective of experience and impact.
• Comprehensive benefits package, including extended health, dental, and vision coverage — with 100% of monthly premiums covered by the Spring.
• GRSP matching program to support your long-term financial goals.
• Transit-Friendly Employer (Transit allowance).
• A modern, collaborative workspace in the heart of downtown Vancouver.
• Ongoing career growth opportunities
