ABOUT THE ROLE

We are looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer to build personalized, high-complexity email templates and reusable components using React, TypeScript, and Apache Velocity, consuming live API data to deliver dynamically populated production-ready email experiences. You will turn Figma designs into modular, scalable code frameworks within an internal email platform, build and optimize lifecycle marketing audiences using SQL, and collaborate with Design Systems toward a modern AI-assisted self-service architecture.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

- Build personalized, high-complexity email templates and reusable product-specific components by consuming data from APIs and integrating it into email UI logic using React, Apache Velocity, and external email tools;

- Unblock the delivery of complex, data-heavy email campaigns requiring advanced engineering expertise;

- Translate Figma designs into modular, responsive, and reusable code components within email tools;

- Create and optimize lifecycle marketing campaign audiences using complex SQL queries and custom APIs;

- Support audience building within the internal email platform to reduce reliance on external engineering teams;

- Collaborate with Design Systems to evolve the platform toward a modular, AI-assisted self-service architecture;

- Deliver production-ready, dynamically populated email templates powered by live API data and Apache Velocity;





- Build scalable code frameworks within the internal email platform that consume data directly from internal sources;

- Ensure validated A/B testing implementations with complete data and measurement tracking integrity.

MUST HAVES

- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field with 4+ years of related experience, OR a Master’s degree with 3+ years of experience;

- Most recent professional experience as a Software Engineer with a front-end focus;

- Strong front-end development experience using React, TypeScript, and JavaScript;

- Experience integrating user interfaces with backend platforms;

- Strong command of Apache Velocity (VTL) and its macro system, or strong hands-on experience with server-side templating technologies capable of implementing complex template logic and reusable macros;

- Experience working with scalable design systems and reusable shared components;

- Strong architectural judgment when extending existing components or creating new ones;

- Experience with Git, including platforms such as GitHub or GitLab, the command line, and modern IDEs;

- Upper-intermediate English level.

NICE TO HAVES

- Experience with email development;

- Experience using AI developer tools such as Cursor, Windsurf, or Claude;

- Experience with component internationalization (i18n) and localization frameworks;

- Familiarity with Figma;

- Basic understanding of AWS infrastructure;

- Experience with Infrastructure as Code tools such as Terraform and CI/CD pipelines such as GitLab CI.

PERKS AND BENEFITS

- Professional growth:



Mentorship, TechTalks, and personalized growth roadmaps.

- Competitive compensation: USD-based pay with education, fitness, and team activity budgets.

- Exciting projects: Modern solutions with Fortune 500 and top product companies.

- Flextime: Adaptable schedule with remote and office options.

Requirements
Education & Seniority: - Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field with 5+ years of related experience, OR a Master’s degree with 3+ years of experience. - Your most recent role on your resume should be as a Software Engineer with a front-end focus. This role prioritizes strong software engineering principles over traditional email production. Modern Web/Development Frameworks: -Robust front-end development experience using modern web technologies (React is highly prioritized, TypeScript, and JavaScript). - Proven experience integrating user interfaces with backend platforms, ideally for email-specific purposes. Server-Side Templating & Logic (Apache Velocity): - Strong command of Apache Velocity (VTL) and Macros (#set, #if, #foreach, #define), understanding how components compose into full templates. - Note on Velocity: While Apache Velocity is preferred, candidates without direct Velocity experience will be considered if they have strong hands-on experience with server-side templating technologies, with a proven ability to architect, write, and implement complex template logic and reusable macros from scratch. Scalable Design Systems: - Experience working with scalable design systems, building and using shared components over one-off layouts. - Strong architectural judgment on when to extend an existing component versus when to build a new one. Development Environment: - Highly fluent with Git (GitLab/GitHub), the command line, and modern IDEs (e.g., Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code).
