Front-End Engineer (Contract)

Location: Remote-Eligible (DFW Preferred, US Central Time or Nearby)

Type: Contract - 40 hrs/week preferred

About the Role

We’re looking for a Front-End Engineer Contractor to help us deliver the future of real-time AI experiences. You’ll build responsive, high-quality interfaces that power dashboards, model training views, and dynamic agent workflows. These are complex, data-rich, user-facing applications that demand real attention to UX craft; layout, animations, transitions, empty states, performance, and system consistency.

We’re in the middle of a major transformation, evolving from platform infrastructure to end-user experience and product polish. That means we’re not just looking for a coder. We’re looking for a UI specialist who sees every detail, can prototype their ideas, and wants to shape the design system as much as the features.

What You’ll Do

1. Build modern UIs with React, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS
2. Prototype and ship visual systems like dashboards, timelines, and interactive AI workflows
3. Collaborate across UX, backend, and product to design and implement clean, scalable experiences
4. Extend and evolve our internal design system with reusable components and clear patterns
5. Contribute to highly dynamic interfaces, where the data, layout, and workflows shift in real time
6. Push UX polish: spacing, motion, responsiveness, edge-case handling, accessibility

The above statements are intended to describe the general nature and level of work performed by employees assigned to this job. They are not intended to be an exhaustive list of all duties, responsibilities, and qualifications.

What We’re Looking For

1. 5+ years of professional front-end experience
2. Strong React and TypeScript fundamentals, including component-driven architecture
3. Deep understanding of HTML, CSS, Tailwind, and interaction best practices
4. Passion for visual polish, UI structure, and layout consistency
5. Experience with design systems (Storybook, tokens, reusable components)
6. Familiarity with data visualization, dashboard UI, or interactive charts
7. Bonus: Experience with GraphQL, video/map interfaces, or AI/ML-powered
8. Bonus: Exposure to backend environments like Go or Java, especially when bridging front-end services to APIs or infrastructure
9. Must be a US citizen
