[Hiring] Frontend Engineer @Nexcess

Role Description

The Network Solutions team engineers and maintains the networking products — load balancing, switching, firewalls, VPN, VPC, and GPF — that connect and protect our customers’ infrastructure. You will own platform changes end to end: the specification, the automation and configuration, the validation, and how they behave in production. This is an individual contributor role with no direct reports, and you are the engineer who answers for whether what you shipped actually works.

The pull request is the visible part. The job is the machine behind it:

• Turning a loosely worded need into something precise enough to build against.
• Naming what can break before it does.
• Proving the change is correct rather than asserting it.
• Staying with it once it is live.

How we work:

• Business alignment and focus come first.
• Engineering exists to move the business, not to be busy.
• You will know which few things matter most this month and why.
• Predictable, reliable delivery of quality software is the output of this job.
• This job gets more hands-on every quarter, not less.
• Most code is AI-generated now, so the judgment moved to either side of it.
• You do not need to own the roadmap to know why the work matters.
• You go on call for what you build and take your turn on the rotation.

Responsibilities

• Own frontend features end to end within the Network Solutions domain.
• Take work from specification through implementation, testing, deployment, monitoring, and ongoing production support for interfaces used to manage networking products and services.
• Build and maintain modern web interfaces.
• Develop reliable, maintainable, and performant frontend applications using React or Vue.
• Translate product and technical requirements into clear frontend solutions.
• Clarify expected behavior, edge cases, dependencies, and user flows before implementation begins.
• Create intuitive interfaces for complex networking functionality.
• Make technical products such as load balancing, firewalls, VPN, VPC, and related services understandable and manageable through clear user experiences.
• Work closely with backend and platform engineers.
• Integrate frontend applications with APIs and underlying services, identify dependencies early, and resolve interface or data issues before they become blockers.
• Use AI-assisted engineering tools as part of your daily workflow.
• Apply agentic tooling to implementation and review while critically validating generated code and remaining accountable for the final result.
• Verify changes with evidence.
• Write automated tests, validate user flows and failure scenarios, and ensure changes are production-ready before deployment.
• Review frontend code and technical changes from other engineers.
• Identify design, maintainability, performance, accessibility, and reliability risks early and provide clear, actionable feedback.
• Work safely in existing and unfamiliar codebases.
• Understand legacy or complex frontend applications, make incremental improvements without unnecessary rewrites, and leave code better tested and documented than you found it.
• Own what you run.
• Participate in production support, investigate frontend-related incidents, and ensure issues lead to meaningful improvements.
• Mentor other engineers.
• Share frontend engineering practices, explain design decisions, and support less experienced engineers through implementation and review.
• Coordinate dependencies across teams.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience in frontend software engineering and production applications.
• 5+ years of experience with React or Vue.
• Strong experience building and maintaining complex web applications.
• Strong understanding of modern JavaScript or TypeScript, component-based architecture, state management, and frontend application design.
• Experience integrating frontend applications with APIs and backend services.
• Experience writing automated frontend tests and validating production changes before deployment.
• Strong understanding of performance, usability, accessibility, and maintainability in web applications.
• Ability to work effectively in existing or unfamiliar codebases and troubleshoot issues across frontend and backend boundaries.
• Hands-on experience with AI-assisted engineering tools as part of day-to-day development work.
• Clear written communication skills and the ability to work effectively in a remote, distributed team across multiple time zones.

Preferred

• Experience with core networking administration or networking concepts.
• Experience with relational databases such as PostgreSQL or MariaDB.
• Experience building interfaces for infrastructure, cloud, hosting, or other technical products.
• Experience with managed hosting, cloud platforms, or another high-availability service environment.
• Experience mentoring engineers and reviewing frontend architecture and code.

Benefits

• Visa support and relocation assistance.
• Daily lunches in the office.
• Work in a team of professionals at an international level.
• Comfortable working conditions.
• Opportunity to practice and improve your English.
• Competitive salary and all necessary equipment.
• Medical insurance.
