We are seeking a Front-End Developer with 3–5 years of professional experience in modern JavaScript development to join a highly collaborative team responsible for building front-end interfaces for advanced trading systems. This is a hybrid role based in Calgary, with the team working onsite two days per week. You’ll work closely with teams in Calgary and New York to evolve a platform used for real-time trading and large-scale buyer-side interactions. This is a pure front-end development role — no backend or data responsibilities.

Key Responsibilities

  • Work within a small, agile team of developers to deliver high-impact features.
  • Collaborate directly with product managers, sales teams, and end-users to iterate on product features and UX.
  • Maintain high-quality code, with attention to performance, usability, and cross-browser compatibility.
  • Participate in A/B testing and use analytics to drive product decisions.

Tech Stack

Primary: JavaScript, TypeScript, React, Next.js, HTML, CSS
Secondary: Angular (being phased out)
Nice to Have: Experience with Electron for building cross-platform desktop apps

Preferred Experience

  • 3–5 years of experience in front-end development
  • Strong proficiency in modern JavaScript and React-based frameworks
  • Experience with product analytics, user segmentation, and A/B testing
  • Familiarity with cloud-native environments is a plus
  • Experience working in high-autonomy environments with cross-functional teams
