Job Description
Front End Engineer / React / TypeScript / JavaScript
Contract-to-Hire | Remote
Join a technology team that helps some of the world's largest consumer brands and retailers make smarter pricing and promotion decisions. Their platform influences billions in consumer spending and powers data-driven strategies for household names across grocery, retail, and consumer goods. They're looking for a Front End Engineer with strong React and TypeScript experience to help build and scale modern SaaS applications used by enterprise customers across North America. This is a contract-to-hire opportunity offering the chance to work on highly visible products in a remote-first environment.
What makes this opportunity unique is the combination of impact, ownership, and scale. Engineers on this team don't get stuck maintaining a single application or working through endless layers of process. Instead, they help shape multiple products, influence technical decisions, and see their work directly affect how leading retailers and brands operate. The team is leveraging modern AI-assisted development tools, moving quickly, and seeking engineers who enjoy solving challenging problems while continuing to grow their technical skills. It's an ideal opportunity for someone who wants startup-level ownership backed by the stability of an established, industry-leading technology organization.
