[Hiring] Senior Frontend Developer @Ventrata

2d ago - Ventrata is hiring a remote Senior Frontend Developer. 💸 Salary: unspecified 📍Location: European timezones

Role Description

Are you a frontend craftsman capable of creating and maintaining complex projects? Are you interested in cutting-edge technology? Do you see an existing, high-quality app not just for what it is, but for what it could become? If the challenge of transforming a modern application with a total redesign and Svelte 5 excites you, we need to talk.

The Challenge: A Ground-Up Redesign on a New Foundation

  • This isn't about tweaking a simple app. Our core product is a powerful, configuration-driven checkout widget with multiple display modes, complex booking flows (such as cross-selling and multi-booking), and a dependent-booking management module.
  • It's a mature, high-quality application, and now it's ready for its next evolution.
  • Our mission is to execute a total redesign, fundamentally reimagining our user flows, component library, and design system, all built upon a modern Svelte 5 foundation.

What You'll Be Building & Transforming

  • Our checkout widget is a SPA built upon Svelte 5 (migrated from v4), Vite, Typescript, Tailwind, Vitest, and Cypress.
  • Your responsibility will be foundational migrations (upgrading Vite, Tailwind, etc.), giving you a unique opportunity to learn the codebase's intricacies.
  • You will participate in translating a new, comprehensive Figma design with a great focus on project maintainability and code clarity.
  • As our Senior Frontend Engineer, you will be the primary force for this transformation, working alongside our Tech Lead to build the future of our product.

What else?

  • We are looking for out-of-the-box thinking. Any action you take should be taken with the full intent to be responsible for it.
  • You are the owner of the delivery; you can push it, tweak it, and ask for questions!
  • You know when to be pedantic and take safe steps, and when to take action.
  • You can deliver :)

What about AI?

  • We are heavily integrating AI into our process, using tools like Claude Code for code generation or Gemini CLI for experiments.
  • This doesn’t mean we delegate our work to agent systems; we use them to improve the delivery.
  • They are meant to augment our creativity and accelerate development. We don’t expect autonomous deliveries without your involvement.

Other packages?

  • Our philosophy is "lean by design," and you'll be a key guardian of our codebase's quality as we transform it.
  • We are building a product with specific needs. There will always be decision-making before a package is included in the codebase.
  • Size and complexity are the kings, and this requires deep technical expertise. You need to know how to develop components and libraries.

What about test coverage?

  • We have top-league QA with an excellent E2E suite.
  • You will be required to cover your features with component tests and unit tests.
  • This is not your regular 'ship it and see if it works.' We're talking about uncompromising quality.
  • Cypress and Vitest are your friends.

What 'Senior' Means to Us

  • You're a Master Builder: You've been in the trenches with complex SPAs. You can look at a solid, existing system and see how to make it exceptional.
  • You're a Product-Minded Engineer: You don't just build what's on the ticket; you seek to understand the "why."
  • You're a Problem Deconstructor: You are a highly autonomous operator. You can analyse a complex system, plan a multi-step transformation, and execute it with precision without needing constant oversight.
  • You're a Tech Enthusiast: The idea of leveraging AI tools in your daily workflow excites you.

Qualifications

  • Expert knowledge of modern JavaScript (ESNext) and TypeScript.
  • Proven experience building and maintaining complex, large-scale Single Page Applications (SPAs).
  • Experience with large-scale refactoring and evolving a mature codebase.
  • Demonstrated ability to work with intricate business rules and user flows.
  • Deep professional experience with Svelte is a significant advantage. Alternatively, expert-level experience in React or Vue with a demonstrable passion for mastering Svelte.
  • A pragmatic approach to problem-solving and a love for the craft of frontend development.
  • Intermediate English proficiency.
  • Nice-to-have: Backend development experience.
  • Preferably located in the Czech Republic time zone.

Benefits

  • Fairly informal about working hours.
  • Unlimited paid holiday days.
  • Start-up working environment.
  • WFH or work remotely.
  • Team buildings and company remote office.
  • Two office locations: core team in Brno and a newly opened office in Lisbon.
  • Young and passionate team - the ‘Ventrata family.”
  • Hardware/remote setup package.
  • Competitive salary and regular salary revaluation.
  • Christmas bonuses.
