What you'll do
We're looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer to help us build the next generation of our financial platform. In this role, you will bridge the gap between complex financial logic and high-end user experience. You will be responsible for translating high-fidelity designs from Figma into performant React applications that consume RESTful APIs to deliver real-time financial insights.
-
Feature Leadership: Lead the end-to-end implementation of complex frontend features, ensuring they are scalable, secure, and highly responsive.
-
Design Implementation: Work fluently within Figma to inspect designs, manage design tokens, and build a cohesive, reusable component library.
-
API Integration: Architect clean and efficient patterns for consuming RESTful APIs, managing asynchronous data fetching, caching, and error handling.
-
Performance Optimization: Fine-tune applications for maximum speed, focusing on efficient rendering and data processing for heavy financial datasets.
-
Collaboration: Partner with product managers and backend engineers to define API contracts and ensure technical feasibility across the stack.

-
Figma Fluency: You are comfortable navigating Figma, extracting assets, and collaborating with designers to turn static mockups into dynamic, interactive experiences.

Proven role-specific execution.
Nice to haves

Clara’s Hybrid Policy
Claridians in a hybrid mode split their time between working from the office, talking to or visiting customers, or working from home. This hits a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility about how to do this in a way that makes sense for each individual and team.
We don't enforce a minimum number of days for most roles, but you're expected to spend time at the office organically, and be at the office most days during your ramp-up or when required by your leader.
