The evolution of the internet has progressed through distinct phases. Cisco played a pivotal role in establishing the foundational infrastructure that enabled client-server architectures and global connectivity. API gateways and platforms like MuleSoft facilitated human-to-web commerce. We are now entering a phase defined by autonomous agent-to-agent communication, a fundamental shift towards interconnected intelligent systems.
Just as Cisco and API gateway technologies defined their respective eras, Tetrate is now defining the next generation of the internet. We are building the foundational platform that enables secure, scalable, and efficient communication between Large Language Models (LLMs) and autonomous agents. By architecting the control plane for these complex interactions, we are establishing the core infrastructure for the next phase of interconnected AI systems.
We are seeking an experienced Lead Frontend Engineer to join our Frontend team, which focuses on building immersive experiences. Our engineers develop applications that manage Application traffic of complex network infrastructure across cloud providers and on-premise deployments.
We specialize in ReactJs with TypeScript, React Hooks, and Styled components, enabling us to create high-performance UI/UX. We integrate data and metrics with powerful visualizations using d3.js. Our UIs provide powerful alerting, notifications, observability, monitoring, and tracing through deep interactions with tracing platforms such as ZIPKIN and observability platforms such as Apache SkyWalking.
Effective documentation is crucial, and we utilize a platform to manage authored and generated documentation for our products. We employ node.js, YAML configs for orchestrating content across repositories, and Docusaurus for comprehensive documentation.
Responsibilities
* Architect, build, and enhance high-performance UIs, including dashboards, large-scale config management, and impressive visualizations involving vast volumes of data.
* Optimize HTTP requests, balancing reuse versus usability, reducing wasted re-renders, smaller code bundles, faster CI/CD pipelines, maximizing automated testing, and effective support tooling.
* Manage, lead, and develop a team of frontend engineers and serve as the owner and leader of our frontend engineering function.
* Ensure effective communication and transparency in a globally distributed environment with team members across the globe in multiple time zones.
* Contribute to the design and architecture of our flagship product, Tetrate Service Bridge, and conduct code reviews.
Required Skills
* 7+ years of experience in JavaScript type-systems (e.g., TypeScript, Flow) and React.
* 3+ years of experience with Data Visualization (e.g., real-time charts, efficient asynchronous data flow).
* 2+ years of hands-on core web and browser concepts/experience (e.g., how JavaScript handles asynchronous code).
* Experience in building Web UI images for containers and managing multiple frameworks to deliver high-performance and secure web experiences.
* Experience in BFF implementation involving composition of CRUD APIs to achieve complex business process functionalities.
* Proven background with establishing testing practices, including automation and tooling experience, specifically around automated testing and validation of Frontend applications.
Preferred Skills
* Working knowledge of when and how to make your code scale effectively.
* Proactive approach to taking ownership of tasks and completing them.
* Demonstrate a desire to learn and continually give and receive feedback effectively.
* Fundamentals-based problem-solving skills; drive decision-making based on first principles.
* Bias-to-action and avoiding analysis-paralysis; drive action to completion with high quality and on time.
* Ego-less when searching for the best ideas; contribute effectively outside of your specialty.
* Value autonomy and results over process.
