## Job description

## **About Aragorn AI**

Aragorn AI is reimagining how People Ops teams operate in the age of AI. We’re building a platform that unifies HR data and transforms how organizations make decisions, unlock insights, and run operations. Our mission is simple but ambitious: help HR teams move faster, smarter, and with more confidence.

We’re on a mission to reach $10M ARR and you will be at the heart of that journey — building the AI-powered systems that will redefine how companies manage their people. This is a **senior, hands-on engineering role** — you will own major pieces of our frontend architecture, push the boundaries of design system implementation, and ensure a world-class user experience for our customers

## **What You’ll Own**

You will architect, build, and optimize the frontend that powers Aragorn’s Analytics & Agentic HR Studio platform. You will:

* Lead development in **React**, **TypeScript**, and **Webpack**, ensuring performance, maintainability, and scalability
* Implement and evolve our **micro frontend architecture** to support modular, scalable product delivery
* Collaborate directly with the **Product Designer** and **Head of Product** to translate UX designs into high-quality, performant code
* Work with our **design system**, ensuring components are reusable, accessible, and optimized for developer experience
* Critique and collaborate on UX/UI designs, proactively identifying implementation constraints and optimization opportunities.
* Work closely with backend engineers to define, consume, and optimize APIs for efficient data communication.
* Make strategic decisions on when to leverage third-party libraries versus custom implementations to balance speed of delivery with long-term maintainability
* Own CI/CD pipelines for frontend applications — configuration, optimization, and deployment.
* Champion frontend performance best practices, from bundle size reduction to runtime optimization.
* Contribute to setting technical standards and architecture consistency for the frontend team
* Participate in architecture and roadmap discussions to ensure scalability and long-term flexibility of the platform.

## **You Might Be a Fit If You**

* Have **5+ years of professional experience** building modern React applications at scale
* Have deep expertise in **TypeScript**, **Webpack**, and modern frontend tooling
* Have implemented **micro frontend architecture** in production environments
* Have built and scaled **component-based design systems** in collaboration with design teams
* Can translate **Figma designs** into pixel-perfect, performant implementations — and know when and how to challenge a design for feasibility
* Have a strong sense of **UX** and can identify ways to simplify complex workflows
* Understand **REST and GraphQL API** structures, and how to design frontend code that integrates cleanly with backend services
* Have experience configuring and deploying applications in **CI/CD** environments
* Write clean, maintainable, and well-tested code that other developers can easily build on.
* Are fluent in **frontend performance optimization** strategies — from bundle splitting to virtualization.
* Thrive in **collaborative environments** where designers, engineers, and product work as one team.
* Enjoy **balancing speed** of delivery with architectural and code quality

## **Why This Role Is Special**

* **Product-defining impact:** you will shape the UI/UX of the core Analytics and Agentic Studio platform used by enterprise HR teams
* **Close collaboration with founders and product design:** fast feedback loops and zero corporate bureaucracy
* **Cutting-edge architecture:** micro frontends, dynamic design systems, real-time analytics, and agentic AI
* **Product ownership:** equity, technical decision-making power, and the ability to leave your mark on a category-defining product

## **What Success Looks Like in the First 6 Months**

* Production-ready micro frontend architecture supporting multiple product modules
* Fully integrated and documented design system adopted across all frontend codebases
* Highly performant React applications that load fast and run smoothly
* Clear documentation of frontend architecture, component usage, and deployment workflows.
* Seamless collaboration with Product Design and Backend teams, reducing handoff friction and speeding up delivery cycles
