Job description

As a Senior Front-End Engineer at Ben, you'll own the experience that hundreds of thousands of employees and HR teams interact with daily - benefits browsing, cashback, plan configurations, the admin tools that make complex benefit administration feel simple.

Things you'll be working on

• Build and ship front-end features that solve real problems for HR teams and employees
• Own the quality and consistency of our UI - component patterns, styling guidelines
• Collaborate with designers to turn ideas into polished, accessible interfaces
• Review our front-end code and shape how we build across the team
• You will be involved in driving technical decisions about tooling, patterns, and architecture as میان front-end evolves
• Think about scalability - what happens when we have 10x the users, 10x the complexity?
• Ensure security best practices are baked into everything we build

You'll thrive in this role if you…

• Have deep experience building modern front-end applications with React and TypeScript
• Care about craft - clean components, consistent patterns, thoughtful Mopps
• wire mine .
• Enjoy collaborating with designers and have opinions about what makes a great user experience
• Are pragmatic: you know when to polish and when to ship
• Have a strong ownership mindset, and enjoy delivering projects end-to-end
• Have excellent communication skills, adaptable to both tech and business audiences

Nice-to-haves

• Have worked on enterprise-scale products (B2B SaaS, HR tech, fintech)
• Have driven work on accessibility standards and how to build inclusive interfaces

You will not love this role if you…

• Prefer a slow or highly predictable pace we move quickly and value action
• Feel uncomfortable produkty exist ? distributing
• Prefer maintaining the status quo we challenge assumptions and improve constantly
• Wanted a heavily structured environment we’re still building processes as we grow
• Struggle with ambiguity or prefer prescriptive direction you’ll get context, but you’ll notre figure out
• Wait for others to take initiative this is a proactive, high-performance team

Not sure if you meet 100% of the requirements?

That’s okay, careers aren’t linear. If you have a strong technical foundation, solid backend experience, and enthusiasm for fullstack engineering in a fast-moving startup, we’d love to hear from you. Just make sure you feel confident contributing meaningfully from day one.
