Role Profile

In this development-heavy position, you will be responsible for creating production-ready user interfaces for AI-powered tools and GenAI applications. Working in a greenfield, lab-first environment, you will prototype, iterate, and deploy solutions that adhere to the highest standards of performance, security, and compliance in a regulated financial setting.

Key Responsibilities:

Design and develop modern, responsive front-end applications from the ground up using React, TypeScript, and Next.js.
Build secure, performant user interfaces that integrate with LLM APIs (e.g., Gemini, Azure OpenAI) and internal systems.
Implement advanced front-end security features, including token handling, session management, data masking, and audit logging.
Translate UX/UI designs into modular, reusable components aligned with enterprise design systems.
Integrate front-end applications with REST/GraphQL APIs, WebSockets, and backend services.
Collaborate closely with AI engineers, backend developers, and cloud architects to deliver end-to-end solutions.
Ensure compliance with cybersecurity and data privacy standards through secure coding practises and regular code reviews.
Deploy applications to GCP (Firebase, Cloud Run) and Azure App Services using CI/CD pipelines hardened for security and compliance.
Participate in code reviews, technical design discussions, and architecture planning sessions.

Required Skills & Experience:

Proven experience building secure, production-grade front-end applications in regulated environments (e.g., finance, healthcare, government).
Strong proficiency in modern JavaScript/TypeScript frameworks (React, Next.js) and responsive UI development.
Demonstrated ability to build front-end applications from scratch in greenfield or innovation lab settings.
Experience developing interactive UIs, dashboards, chat interfaces, and data visualisations for AI-powered tools.
Skilled in integrating front-end applications with APIs (REST, GraphQL, WebSockets) and backend services.
Deep understanding of front-end security practises (e.g., OWASP, CSP, input sanitization, role-based access).
Familiarity with secure API design, token management, and data privacy obligations (e.g., GDPR, ISO 27001).
Ability to build modular, reusable components aligned with enterprise design systems (e.g., MUI, Tailwind).
Exposure to secure SDLC practises, cyber risk assessments, and security posture reporting.
Comfortable working in agile, cross-functional teams with product managers, AI engineers, and cloud architects.
