Frontend Software Engineer

Job Description Roles & Responsibilities Your Role: This is a role for an engineer who enjoys crafting polished, accessible user experiences, solving deep UI and state-management problems, and working in a complex, internationalized product with a focus on delivering high-quality experiences for schools, teachers, and students in Arabic and other languages. One of your upcoming projects will involve an AI-powered activity generation flow, but most of your work will be on core Seesaw features (Arabic/RTL, reading experiences, and classroom tools). Your Responsibilities: Design and build Arabic-enabled, RTL-aware frontend experiences for features such as resource conversion, Reading Fluency (Arabic), and Read With Me (Arabic). Collaborate closely with product, design, and cross-functional engineering teams to translate requirements into intuitive, performant UI flows with high-quality Arabic input/output and correct RTL behavior. Develop modern frontend architectures (components, state management, routing) and integrate with backend APIs and asynchronous workflows that support Seesaw s international expansion and bilingual classroom needs. Support rostering or integration issues that surface in the UI, partnering with Support to maintain reliability for schools without taking on routine tickets. Contribute to frontend architecture, technical roadmap planning, and engineering best practices to help establish a strong frontend culture in the new Jordan team. Desired Candidate Profile Your Requirements: 3+ years of frontend-focused engineering experience, ideally building SPAs with React or a similar framework. Strong understanding of Computer Science fundamentals, whether gained through a CS degree or equivalent experience (bootcamps + non-traditional backgrounds welcome). Direct experience designing, developing, and maintaining web applications at scale the best candidates can speak to component design, state management, performance, and production constraints. Familiarity with modern web technologies and frontend ecosystems, including at least one SPA framework (React, Vue, Angular, etc.), REST/GraphQL APIs, and build tooling. Ability to write clean, maintainable, self-documenting code and to design simple, elegant frontend solutions for complex product requirements. Familiarity with SAML/OIDC-based authentication flows, SIS/LMS integrations, or data interoperability standards (OneRoster, CSV/XLSX/XML) from a UI perspective. Preferred Experience: Strong frontend intuition and a desire to build performant, robust, and thoughtful user experiences inside a complex international platform. Experience with React, TypeScript, design systems/component libraries, and modern styling approaches (CSS modules, CSS-in-JS, etc.). Experience adapting products for different languages and regions Comfort debugging tricky layout and text issues, including encoding, RTL rendering bugs, and Unicode/bi-directional text handling in the browser. A strong product sense and empathy for users, especially teachers and students in bilingual or Arabic-medium classrooms. Exposure to cloud-based environments (AWS, GCP, or similar) and frontend observability/performance tooling (logging, metrics, error tracking) is a plus.
