📋 Description

• Own the entire front-end surface of Volcano — from architecture decisions to the last pixel of a data visualisation — operating as the sole UI authority on the team • Build log views, chart components, table interfaces, and graph-based agent workflow visualisations that are both technically precise and visually intentional • Architect front-end systems within a Next.js monorepo that are performant, maintainable, and designed with the full-stack context in mind — not in isolation from it • Drive collaborative pair design sessions with Mark and the broader Volcano team, iterating quickly and without attachment to prior work when product direction shifts • Integrate with backend services built in Go — understanding auth flows, API contracts, and where the UI layer fits within the broader system architecture • Contribute to the upcoming LLM-driven code generation and deployment flow, building web-based text editors, chat interfaces, and dynamic graph visualisations for agent orchestration • Participate in PR reviews via GitHub, contributing to technical rigour and code quality across the Volcano codebase

🎯 Requirements

• 5+ years of production front-end engineering experience, with a demonstrable track record of owning UI systems end-to-end • Server-side rendering expertise — deep, practical experience with SSR in a production context; Next.js is the team's primary framework, with Remix or TanStack Start considered equivalent • React and monorepo proficiency — comfortable operating within large-scale monorepo structures and reasoning about cross-package dependencies • Full-stack systems fluency — able to reason across authentication architectures, API design, and backend data flows; you understand where front-end decisions have downstream consequences • Data-heavy UI delivery — experience building log views, chart systems, table interfaces, or graph/node visualisations at a level of quality that goes beyond functional • AI/LLM working experience — you use AI tooling in your day-to-day development workflow as a matter of course, not as an experiment.

🏖️ Benefits
