Senior Front End Engineer
WFA Digital Insight
True Link Financial’s senior front‑end engineer opening stands out because it marries high‑velocity fintech development with a clear social mission. Candidates will dive into a Rails/React stack while shaping user‑centric features that serve people often ignored by traditional banks. The role emphasizes mentorship, expecting engineers to teach and learn across experience levels, which is rare for remote senior positions. Collaboration with designers and product managers is front‑and‑center, demanding a balance between tech debt and rapid delivery. If you thrive on accessibility (A11y) and robust testing practices, the day‑to‑day will involve more than just coding—it’s about raising the quality bar for a product that genuinely impacts vulnerable users.
Job Description
We are a profitable, mission-driven fintech company building financial solutions for people whose needs go unmet by traditional institutions – people with disabilities, older adults, and people in recovery, and the families and professionals who care for them. We get to wake up every day knowing our work has a profound impact on our customers' lives, and we run the business with the discipline to keep doing it for the long haul. That track record has earned us a spot on the Forbes Fintech 50 and the Inc. 5000 list of America's fastest-growing companies for the last two years. In this role, you’ll use your front end expertise to make this thoughtful fintech work happen! While you’ll spend most of your time hands-on coding in our Rails/React stack, you’ll also be taking the time to understand the architecture, mentor and learn from those around you to create more sustainable front end software What You’ll Do - Shape and deliver user-centric features in our Rails/React environment - Act as a kind educator and learn from teammates across different experience levels in JavaScript - Guide the team towards creating more robust front end experiences through a mix of modeling better practices and active mentoring and teaching Who You Are - Experienced JavaScript developer with modern framework experience - Comfortable collaborating with designers and product managers to balance tradeoffs between addressing tech debt and delivering functionality - Experienced teacher or mentor who also learns from others - Adept at delivering ambitious projects quickly while reinforcing a culture of excellence - Quality focused via good usability patterns and developer testing practices What Tech You Know - Javascript - React - A11y - Material UI - Jest with React Testing Library Why You’ll Love Us - We operate with the pace of a startup, the rigor of a financial services firm, and the mission-orientation of a company that deeply cares about the people it serves.
- With fifty million Americans in our addressable market, we are building for the millions of people who need our products and services across the country - and we’ve got the potential to reach many more.
- We have the privilege of providing financial protection for vulnerable members of society and partnering with expert service providers to do so.
- We treat one another like we treat our customers: with respect and dignity. Diversity, equity, and inclusion are cultural values we take very seriously, and we welcome and recruit team members of all backgrounds and identities.
- We offer competitive wages, health, dental & vision coverage, paid parental leave, 12 paid holidays each year, your own professional development budget, and generous vacation.
- The majority of us work from home from all across the US, and we enjoy connecting virtually for laughs with teammates and meeting up in-person: we have small offices in SF and in Kingston NY, and we plan team get-togethers around the country.
How to Stand Out
- Prepare a portfolio that showcases React projects with a focus on accessibility and testing.
- Highlight any mentorship or teaching experience in your resume and interview.
- Be ready to discuss how you balance technical debt against rapid feature delivery.
- Familiarize yourself with Material UI and be prepared to talk about component design decisions.
- Mention any experience with fintech or financial‑services products, even if indirect.
- When negotiating, emphasize the value of the professional development budget and remote work flexibility.
- Watch for vague compensation language; ask for clarity on salary range and equity during later interview stages.
