Senior Frontend Engineer

As a Frontend Engineer at Ematiq you will be leading implementation of the user interfaces for our proprietary trading applications. Your primary goal is to deliver consistent user experience while minimizing chances of issues, errors or broken UX experience.

Ideal candidates will possess the ability to gather the needs of peer traders and triage them with the help of product management team, leading efforts in terms of standardizing components into libraries, and ideally proposing UX improvements.

Intuition for UX would be of advantage as we sometimes need to do subsecond decisions based on the available information displayed in the UI.

Because we work with a great amount of data, knowledge of visualization techniques and libraries together with performance tuning skills are of critical business value.

In order to manage increasing complexity of our codebase, we are looking for engineers who can take ownership over our frontend engineering area of competence as a whole and lead by good example. 

In return for joining our team, you’ll get lots of autonomy and flexibility in proposing technical solutions to business problems and room to lead other fellow engineers. 

Our tech stack is modern - we primarily target Chrome browser and use technologies like websockets to process real time data. There is also enough room to evaluate other viable technologies during prototyping spikes.

What will be your daily responsibilities?

• Implementing features addressing trading scenarios
• Standardizing our growing component base into libraries
• Fine tuning performance and getting the best out of the most recent technologies (our traders work with evergreen browsers so no cross-browser optimisations are needed)
• Prototyping quick product iterations to evaluate their business potential (also serves as great room to evaluate alternative technologies

Our core stack

• TypeScript 4.9 / ES2022 (only modern browsers)
• React 18 / Blueprint.js 4
• Vite / Vitest
