Senior Software Engineer- 6 Month Daily Rate Contract

FrontEnd -PHP – Java- React

About the Company

Do you want to join team that plays a pivotal role in managing financial transactions for a leading global marketplace? This squad oversees the seamless movement of funds between buyers and sellers, ensuring transactions are processed swiftly and reliably.

My client is looking for an experienced frontend-leaning, full-stack contract engineer to join our established yet evolving Seller Programs and Subscriptions team.


 About the Position

As a Senior Software Engineer, you will be responsible for building and maintaining product features related to the Seller’s experience on our marketplace, designing architecture, writing documentation, and mentoring engineers. You will be responsible for taking the lead on directing and implementing solutions to moderately complex, loosely scoped problems that are aligned with your team's goals. You will deliver projects independently or by leading your teammates to do so, and you will enable other engineers on your team to be successful.

My client is seeking a senior engineering individual contributor who can bring industry-grounded experience to lead technical designs and planning for the frontend of a data-intensive full-stack application.
The team is currently distributed across the United States, Mexico, and Dublin, so my client is looking for someone based in Dublin who is open to working slightly later hours.


Responsibilities

  • Lead the frontend design and implementation of a data-intensive customer-facing web application.

  • Be responsible for the design, development and implementation of highly maintainable and scalable systems by contributing at all levels of our web application stack. Write fullstack and backend code as needed to connect to the frontend.

  • Contribute to and lead projects.

  • Prototype, optimize, and productionize product features.

  • Run A/B experiments to validate product improvements..

  • Provide daily support for peers (ex. Writing documentation, reviewing pull requests, answering Slack questions, pair program to write code and solve problems).

  • Identify and propose tracks of work that reduce tech debt and move our product forward.

  • Serve as an advocate for engineering best practices and contribute to the engineering vision.

  • Be a mentor and guide to fellow engineers.



Experience/Requirements
  • You have extensive experience building customer-facing data-intensive web applications, using both back-end technologies (this team uses PHP, Java, and other languages) and front-end frameworks (React).

  • You will be leading the frontend implementation, so they prefer you to have expertise in writing JavaScript, CSS, and other frontend code, such as TypeScript, React, Storybook, as well as legacy frameworks.

  • Ability to hold an opinionated stance on Frontend Architecture- but always willing to change your mind.

  • Thrive when faced with customer and product-focused challenges, using experimentation, and both quantitative and qualitative methods, to drive decision-making.

  • Strength in frequent collaboration and communication within a cross-functional product team, especially working across multiple countries and time zones.

  • Successful track record of scoping, roadmapping, and leading projects to completion, with a passion for mentoring and coaching other engineers in a compassionate manner.

  • Demonstrate leadership on every project, whether as a tech-lead or a contributor.

  • A growth mindset, with an appreciation for receiving feedback and embracing unexpected outcomes as learning opportunities.

  • You have a “leave it better than you found it” mentality, and are comfortable working with and improving on code you did not originally write..


Remuneration Package

Competitive daily rate on offer in line with the senior level role and hybrid working 2/3 days per week in office. The initial contract duration will be to the end of 2025 with a high possibility of further extension.
