Your Mission With Us
Goal Orientation
We are looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer to develop the frontend of our AI infrastructure platform. Customers use our platform to access and operate two technical products. Your task is to make these products understandable, reliable, and performant through high-quality frontend development.
This is not a classic SaaS-frontend role, nor is it the usual frontend job for a simple single-page application. You will work on a technical B2B platform whose frontend must map complex infrastructure workflows, system states, data-intensive interactions, and product logic in such a way that experienced users can trust it and work with it efficiently.
Your Responsibilities
- You will take responsibility for the frontend implementation of central areas of the AI infrastructure platform, including scheduler and simulator.
- You will develop the scheduler experience for real-time operational workflows: current infrastructure status, workload placement, utilization, throughput, bottlenecks, alerts, and measures for problem resolution.
- You will develop the simulator experience for planning workflows: hypothetical infrastructure setups, scenario comparisons, capacity planning, cost-performance models, and decision support with a focus on ROI.
- You will develop shared frontend components and product patterns that make both products appear consistent while supporting different mental models for live operation and exploratory simulation.
- You will translate complex concepts such as GPU topology, heterogeneous accelerators, scheduling decisions, resource allocation, utilization trade-offs, latency, energy consumption, and costs into robust frontend workflows and visualizations.
- You will implement data-intensive user interfaces that are clear, responsive, trustworthy, and helpful for technical users – without becoming a spreadsheet, a generic admin interface, or a Grafana-like wall of diagrams.
- You will work closely with product management, backend and infrastructure experts, and management to understand technical constraints and develop customer-oriented frontend solutions from them.
- You will contribute to the frontend architecture, component quality, state management, performance, accessibility, testing, and maintainability of the entire platform.
- You will work with APIs, data models, real-time or near real-time states, error and loading states, permissions, and edge cases that are crucial for infrastructure products.
- You will question generic frontend approaches and develop modern, differentiated solutions that build trust in important operational and investment decisions.
What You Bring
- At least 5 years of experience in frontend or product engineering, with demonstrable responsibility at a senior level for complex product developments.
- Solid experience with modern frontend technologies such as React, TypeScript/JavaScript, component-based development, frontend testing, and state management.
- Proven experience with published, data-intensive, and technically complex B2B products where you have improved clarity, reliability, performance, and usability through frontend development.
- Strong product understanding and the ability to understand technical systems deeply enough to map real expert workflows without oversimplifying the product or losing important information.
- Experience with complex B2B products such as developer tools, cloud platforms, observability/monitoring solutions, data platforms, DevOps, AI/ML tools, simulation tools, fintech/trading dashboards, or other technical enterprise products.
- The ability to pragmatically develop frontend architectures and implementation plans with product and engineering stakeholders from unclear technical requirements.
- Experience with dashboards, monitoring views, configuration workflows, comparison views, capacity planning, metrics, alerts, logs, tables, or other data- and number-intensive user interfaces.
- High standards for frontend quality: maintainable code, well-thought-out abstractions, performance awareness, accessibility, reliable testing, and clean integration with backend APIs.
- Confidence in direct collaboration with backend developers, infrastructure experts, product managers, and technical stakeholders in dynamic and not always clearly defined environments.
- Senior-level autonomy: You can structure complex and unstructured problems, question assumptions, identify frontend risks, make sensible trade-offs, and deliver results without detailed specifications.
Preferred
- Experience with AI infrastructure, GPU platforms, heterogeneous computing, cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, schedulers, simulators, MLOps, data platforms, or distributed systems.
- Understanding of GPU-adjacent infrastructure concepts such as topology, accelerators, workloads, tenants, quotas, capacity, utilization, latency, throughput, memory, or power consumption constraints.
- Experience with planning, simulation, scenario modeling, CAD-like, graph, topology, or comparison tools.
- Experience with observability, monitoring, incident response, or other real-time interfaces for operational use.
- Experience with custom data visualization, complex tables, network/topology views, Web Workers, or other advanced frontend implementation patterns.
- Experience in developing multi-product platforms where multiple products share components, architecture, and platform conventions but require different workflows.
- Experience collaborating with technical users, infrastructure teams, or executives making ROI decisions.
