Senior Frontend Engineer, Dynamic Data

Posted Jun 7

At Webflow, our mission is to bring development superpowers to everyone. Webflow is the leading visual development platform for building powerful websites without writing code. By combining modern web development technologies into one platform, Webflow enables people to build websites visually, saving engineering time, while clean code seamlessly generates in the background. From independent designers and creative agencies to Fortune 500 companies, millions worldwide use Webflow to be more nimble, creative, and collaborative. It’s the web, made better.

We’re looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer to help us provide the data capabilities to build, launch, and grow any data-driven website, store, or application where visitors will consume or interact with dynamic content.

About the role 

  • Location: San Francisco HQ, US Remote, or ON/BC, Canada
  • Full-time 
  • Exempt 
  • Our cash compensation amount for this role ranges from $130,000 - $178,000 for most US locations and $168,000 - $231,000 for US locations with a higher cost of labor. All figures cited above are in $USD and pertain to workers located in the United States. Pay is based on several factors including market location, and may vary depending on job related experience, knowledge, qualifications, and skills.

As Senior Frontend Engineer, you’ll: 

  • Write performant and accessible UI components (React) that power visual design experiences and websites (check out CSS Grid, E-commerce, Interactions, and more!)
  • Develop a deep understanding of our architecture and codebase while also learning about our product and the customers that use it
  • Collaborate with software engineers, product managers, designers and QA analysts in an autonomous, supportive team environment
  • Build and maintain unit and integration tests (Mocha, Jest, Cypress)
  • Mentor other engineers on best practices, code design considerations, and quality

That said, these responsibilities are just the start! At Webflow, we encourage you to contribute wherever your interests take you — and shape your role accordingly. 

About you 

You’ll thrive in this role if you:

  • Have 5+ years of experience in scalable, multi-tenant environments that drive rich front-end experiences. 
  • Excellent organization and communication skills, both verbal and written.
  • Have worked on complex issues where the analysis requires an in-depth knowledge of the company and existing architecture.
  • Can debug production issues across services and multiple levels of the stack
  • Take pride in taking ownership and driving projects to business impact
  • Proven experience building complex web systems.
  • Are familiar with one or more Javascript type systems (we use Flow & next.js here)
  • Are comfortable working in an agile, safe-to-fail environment

If you don’t meet 100% of the above qualifications, you should still seriously consider applying. Studies show that you can still be considered for a role if you meet just 50% of the role’s requirements.
