Lead front-end technical decisions, bridge design and front-end architecture, mentor developers, collaborate directly with clients, and build accessible, responsive higher-education web applications using modern JS frameworks and tooling.
Join a technology consulting team focused entirely on education, building learner-centric digital experiences. As the UX Engineer, you'll bridge design and front-end architecture — owning technical decisions, mentoring developers, and collaborating directly with clients. We're looking for a front-end tech lead who cares as much about the user's experience as the code, brings curiosity and humility, and wants the trust to lead rather than just execute tickets.
If you have…
- 5+ years building modern web applications in higher education
- Experience with a modern JS framework (React, Angular, Vue, or Lit)
- Front-end technical leadership experience
- Responsive design and accessibility experience
- Experience consuming REST and/or GraphQL APIs
- CSS framework experience (Sass, Tailwind, or CSS Modules)
- Modern build tool experience (Vite, Webpack, or similar)
- Client-facing or consulting experience
- Daily use of AI tools
