About the Role
We’re hiring a hands-on Tech Lead to architect and scale an internal investment insights platform for a top global private equity firm. The platform will be used across multiple internal product teams and requires reusable components, modular dashboards, and a high-quality developer experience.
This role blends technical leadership and consultative engineering. You’ll define frontend architecture, guide implementation, and work directly with Product, Design, and client Engineering leadership onsite in New York.
What You Will Do
Platform & Component Architecture
Own the component library and frontend ecosystem used across multiple micro-apps
Package, version, and distribute shared components with clear migration paths
Support consumption in both Bootstrap and Tailwind environments without fragmentation
Define testing strategy across unit, integration, visual, and E2E levels
Technical Delivery
Lead the implementation of React-based micro-apps backed by AWS serverless (Lambda, API Gateway, Fargate)
Define and enforce CI/CD standards for publishing and deployments
Produce documentation, usage guides, and integration examples for downstream teams
Collaboration & Influence
Partner with Product and Design to translate ambiguous requirements into actionable plans
Present architectural decisions to client Tech Leads and Engineering Committees
Support a distributed engineering team (NY + offshore) through reviews, onboarding, and unblockers
Communicate tradeoffs, assumptions, and alternatives clearly to mixed audiences
What We’re Looking For
Experience:
12–15 years engineering experience with a strong frontend focus
Deep experience with React and component-driven architectures at scale
Experience with micro-frontend architectures (independently deployable modules)
Experience building or extending component libraries (not just consuming)
Familiarity with AWS serverless (Lambda, API Gateway, Fargate)
Experience with CI/CD, containerization, versioning, and semantic versioning
Comfortable working through evolving requirements and partial clarity
Frontend Technologies & Skills
Rendering & Architecture
Client-Side Rendering (CSR)
Server-Side Rendering (SSR) using frameworks such as Next.js
State Management
Redux, Zustand, React Context, or state machines

Tooling: Lighthouse, Core Web Vitals, Chrome DevTools, React Profiler
Real-Time Communication
Experience with WebSockets for real-time experiences
Styling & Frameworks
Bootstrap, Tailwind CSS
CSS/SCSS, Styled Components, or CSS-in-JS approaches
Component Tooling
Storybook for component development and documentation
UI Performance Testing
Familiarity with metrics: TTI, TBT, FCP, LCP
Tooling: Lighthouse, WebPageTest API, browser profiling, Web Vitals
Component Ecosystem Awareness (Nice to Have)
Material UI, Ant Design, Chakra UI
How You Work
We’re looking for someone who:
Communicates tradeoffs and proposes pragmatic, supportable solutions
Works autonomously and drives decisions forward even with partial clarity
Explains architectural reasoning clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
Collaborates closely with Product and Design to shape solutions, not just execute tickets
Treats documentation, onboarding, and developer experience as essential parts of delivery
Why This Role
Strategic, multi-year platform initiative with high visibility
Direct onsite collaboration with senior Product, Business, and Engineering leaders
Real architectural ownership beyond feature delivery
Opportunity to shape developer experience and platform standards across teams
