Summary: The React UI Architect role involves modernizing a product UI by replacing a legacy front-end with a modern React application. The position requires a seasoned React engineer with over 10 years of experience in architecting and building enterprise-level applications from scratch. The focus is on defining front-end architecture, setting engineering standards, and delivering critical modules with minimal oversight. Candidates with experience in migrating legacy UI stacks to modern frameworks are preferred.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Own the React application architecture end-to-end: project structure, component strategy, routing approach, and front-end integration boundaries.
  • Define and implement engineering standards for the UI codebase: reusable component patterns, conventions, linting/formatting, PR quality bars, and documentation to keep the system maintainable and scalable.
  • Drive front-end decisions considering maintainability and ecosystem health (e.g., community support and update cadence were part of internal evaluation discussions).
  • Implement foundational UI building blocks (navigation, layout, shared components) and deliver one or more key product modules end-to-end.
  • Build UI components with strong accessibility practices in mind; internal discussion highlighted accessibility as a key consideration in framework choice and implementation approach.

Key Skills:

  • 10+ years of professional software development experience with significant front-end focus.
  • Deep, hands-on React experience building production-grade SPAs.
  • Proven experience as a hands-on technical Sr. Engineer/lead who has built an application from scratch (greenfield foundations + delivery).
  • Demonstrated ability to work independently with minimal oversight while driving architecture and delivery outcomes.
  • Preferred: Experience modernizing or migrating legacy UI stacks (e.g., older server-rendered UIs) into a modern React SPA.
  • Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science or Related Major.
  • React + TypeScript expert; delivered large-scale SPAs and set coding standards.
  • Front-end architecture for modular apps (admin/settings/case management separation).
  • React state management strategy and governance (consistent patterns across team).
  • Accessibility-first development (WCAG/ARIA/fockeyboard; a11y testing).
  • Design system/component library integration; reusable, consistent UI components.
  • UI entitlements: RBAC + feature toggles for module visibility and phased release.
  • SPA authentication/session integration (token handling; secure flows; timeouts).
  • API integration patterns (BFF/aggregation/GraphQL-style thinking to reduce coupling).
  • Incremental modernization delivery (POCs, phased rollout, minimize disruption).
  • Solid foundation in working with third-party libraries (Redux, RxJS) and debugging dependency conflicts.
