Front End Engineer

This is a senior, principal-level role setting the technical vision, architecture, tooling, and delivery standards for a new front-end platform across multiple teams. The core requirements include deep React, JavaScript/TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS expertise, organization-wide technical leadership and mentoring, and strong knowledge of UI quality, search integration, experimentation, linting, and end-to-end testing. Experience using AI tools across architecture, code review, and testing is also required; e-commerce customer portals and high-concurrency platforms are preferred. The description asks for 12+ years of experience, while the structured input specifies 10–12 years, so the experience requirement needs reconciliation. The role is a contract position listed for Bengaluru and Noida; work mode is not specified, and the description’s Principal Front End Engineer title differs from the supplied Front End Engineer title.

Responsibilities

What You'll Be Doing.

Every role at Ubique contributes directly to solving meaningful business challenges for our clients.

Own and evolve the front-end architecture for a brand-new platform, setting technical direction that other engineers and teams build on, and ensuring it holds up against a multi-year roadmap, not just the next release.

Partner with Product, Design, and QA leadership to shape "the right things the right way" at a strategic level — influencing what gets built before it reaches the design/wireframe stage.

Set the standard for performance, scalability, accessibility, and responsive design across the platform, and build the tooling and guardrails that make it easy for other engineers to meet that bar by default.

Define and drive adoption of documentation, coding standards, and architectural best practices across the front-end org, not just within one team.

Lead the front end’s next chapter: define and drive the ambitious roadmap of new projects building on top of it.

Lead the rationalization and componentization of our styling architecture, setting deep, opinionated standards for how Tailwind is used across the codebase at scale.

Define the strategy for SEO, site analytics, A/B testing, and monitoring, select the tools and platform investments, and drive org-wide adoption — including building toward a future where any part of the front end can be A/B tested without a constant reliance on engineering.

Serve as a technical escalation point and thought partner for other engineering leads; represent front-end engineering in architecture and technical steering discussions.

Own the contract that backend and other systems have with the front end — setting and enforcing the integration standards that let you lead product development from the front, not just react to backend decisions.

Own what “done” looks like for front-end work — defining and enforcing the process and quality bar that ensures every feature meets design and product specification before it ships.

Champion the use of AI tools across the SDLC — architecture, code reviews, and test creation — to accelerate delivery, acting as a force multiplier and mentor for teammates.

Enable designers and PMs to make pull requests using AI tools, lowering the barrier for non-engineers to contribute directly to the codebase.
