As a Front End Engineer at Perceptyx, you will play an important role in designing, developing, and maintaining modern software applications that support our platform and customer experience. You’ll work closely with cross-functional teams and fellow engineers to build scalable, high-performing user interfaces and contribute clean, efficient, and maintainable code.
In this role, you’ll collaborate on technical solutions, participate in code reviews, and help ensure engineering best practices are followed throughout the development lifecycle. You’ll have the opportunity to contribute to architecture discussions, solve complex technical challenges, and continuously improve the quality and performance of our applications.
What You’ll Do
- Architect & Lead: Define and drive frontend architecture, coding standards, and design principles to ensure scalable, maintainable solutions.
- Hands-On Development: Build high-quality, performant, and reusable components using React.js, TypeScript, and related libraries.
- Accessibility & Responsiveness: Champion accessibility (WCAG compliance) and responsive design, ensuring our applications work seamlessly across devices and for all users.
- Collaboration: Partner with product managers, designers, and backend engineers to deliver cohesive features and intuitive user interfaces.
- Code Quality: Conduct code reviews, enforce best practices, and promote test-driven development.
- Mentorship: Guide and coach junior and mid-level engineers, fostering growth in technical depth and architectural thinking.
- System Thinking: Anticipate scaling challenges, plan for performance optimizations, and ensure smooth integration with APIs and backend systems.
- Continuous Improvement: Evaluate emerging technologies, tools, and frameworks to recommend enhancements that elevate team velocity and product quality.
- Documentation & Standards: Write and maintain technical documentation, coding standards, and architectural guidelines to ensure consistency and knowledge sharing.
- Monitoring & Optimization: Monitor frontend performance and user experience in production (Core Web Vitals, error tracking, real-user monitoring) and drive continuous improvements.
What You Bring
- Experience: 5+ years in frontend development with increasing responsibility and ownership.
- React Expertise: Strong proficiency in React.js, TypeScript, hooks, state management patterns (Redux, Zustand, or Recoil), and React Query (or similar).
- Architecture Leadership: Experience designing large-scale SPAs with modular, reusable component architectures.
- Accessibility & UI/UX: Strong knowledge of WCAG standards, semantic HTML, ARIA, and responsive web design best practices.
- Testing: Hands-on experience with modern testing frameworks (e.g., Jest, React Testing Library, Cypress) for unit, integration, and end-to-end testing.
- Performance Optimization: Ability to diagnose and resolve performance bottlenecks (bundle size, rendering, caching, lazy loading).
- Tooling & CI/CD: Familiarity with modern build tools (Webpack, Vite, or similar) and working in CI/CD environments.
- Collaboration: Strong communication and leadership skills, with proven ability to influence architecture decisions across teams.
- AI-Assisted Development: Familiarity with modern AI coding assistants such as GitHub Copilot, Cursor, or similar tools to accelerate development and boost productivity.
- Education: Undergraduate degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
Bonus Points:
- Exposure to backend concepts (APIs, cloud services like AWS) and DevOps practices.

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.
Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way.
