Senior Frontend Engineer
Own the surfaces students actually sit in — the mock test interface, analytics and dashboards — where a dropped keystroke or a half-second of lag is the difference between a fair attempt and a ruined one.
Apply for this role
Experience 3–6 yrs
Location Remote (India)
Arrangement Remote
Employment Full-time
Department Engineering
Responsibilities
- Build and harden the exam interface: timers, autosave, navigation and offline resilience
- Turn dense performance data into views a student can act on in under a minute
- Hold the line on Core Web Vitals and accessibility across every screen you ship
- Extend the design system deliberately, without letting it sprawl
- Review code with care — you'll set the bar the rest of the team codes to
Requirements
- 3+ years building production React, ideally with Next.js App Router
- Strong TypeScript, and opinions about where types earn their keep
- Demonstrable care for performance and accessibility, not just features
- Comfort owning a surface end to end, from problem framing to production
Preferred Skills Nice to have, not required — apply even if none of these are true of you.
- Experience with realtime or timing-critical interfaces
- Familiarity with Supabase or Postgres
- A track record of mentoring other engineers
What success looks like How we'll judge this role together — shared with you on day one, not at review time.
- Mock interface holds a p95 interaction latency under 100ms

Usually under three weeks from application to offer. We reply to every application within three days, even when the answer is no.
