Senior Engineer - Frontend Platform

Your Role

Hudl’s Front-End Platform team accelerates web development for our 400+ member product team, and improves the web experience for our 8M+ customers. We’re looking for an experienced Engineer with deep front-end expertise to expand the platform.

As a Senior Software Engineer, you’ll:

• Develop. You’ll help expand Hudl’s front-end platform and make it the standard across Hudl. Whether it’s discovery work, documentation, design reviews or implementation, you’ll do what it takes to ensure a robust, performant, and easy-to-use platform that’s also maintainable, scalable, accessible and secure.
• Build infrastructure. You’ll use your strong AWS and Terraform knowledge to help design and maintain front-end infrastructure. Responsibilities like setting up a CDN for a Jamstack app, or maintaining infrastructure for server-side rendering, get you pumped up.
• Serve as a consultant. With your general expertise in front-end development, and knowledge of Hudl’s front-end platform in particular, you’ll support teams performing front-end work by answering questions, reviewing pull requests, participating in design reviews, and providing feedback on project plans.

We'd like to hire someone for this role who lives near our office in London, but we're also open to remote candidates in the UK.

Must-Haves

• Front-end expertise. You have extensive experience developing front-ends with TypeScript and React. You have either led, or played a key role in the development of, large scale web applications. You’re familiar with design systems and their role in ensuring a consistent, intuitive and accessible experience for users.
• Experience working with front-end infrastructure. You have strong AWS and Terraform experience and can mentor the team to expand its Jamstack environment, or server-side rendering infrastructure, to support new use cases.
• Effective communication skills. You’re able to make your point effectively, both verbally and in writing. Whether you’re building consensus in a meeting, presenting at an Engineering All-Hands, or diagramming CDN routing for a software design review, you know how to effectively share your ideas with your audience.

Nice-to-Haves

• Passionate. You’re all about concepts like Jamstack, component-driven development, micro-frontends, and monorepos, love expanding your knowledge with tools like Playwright, Storybook, Chromatic and Turborepo. You’ve built front-ends using many of these concepts and tools, and have helped others adopt them.
• A visionary. You’re excited by the idea of advancing the starting line for other product team members by delivering and supporting a solid platform for them to build on.
• Commitment to mentorship. You recognize the importance mentorship plays in a company’s long-term success, and you seek out opportunities to share knowledge and level up others in your areas of expertise.

Our Role 

• Champion work-life harmony. We’ll give you the flexibility you need in your work life (e.g., flexible vacation time above any required statutory leave, company-wide holidays and timeout (meeting-free) days, remote work options and more) so you can enjoy your personal life too.
• Guarantee autonomy. We have an open, honest culture and we trust our people from day one. Your team will support you, but you’ll own your work and have the agency to try new ideas.
• Encourage career growth. We’re lifelong learners who encourage professional development. We’ll give you tons of resources and opportunities to keep growing.
• Provide an environment to help you succeed. We've invested in our offices, designing incredible spaces with our employees in mind. But whether you’re at the office or working remotely, we’ll provide you the tech you need to do your best work.
• Support your wellbeing. Depending on location, we offer medical and retirement benefits for employees—but no matter where you’re located, we have resources like our Employee Assistance Program and employee resource groups to support your mental health.
