Overview

JOB TITLE:

Platform Engineer (UI)

LOCATION:

Lehi, UT (Hybrid)

PAY RANGE: $60 - $70/hr.

DURATION: 12 months

• 3+ years building production-grade, scalable React UIs with modern front-end tooling and component-driven development.
• Hands-on experience writing and maintaining reliable UI tests using Playwright (or Cypress/Selenium), including smoke and regression coverage.
• Proven ability to integrate REST/JSON APIs, manage client-side state, and optimize performance (bundling, code-splitting, debugging).

Our client is a global leader in creative software, offering innovative tools for digital media creation, design, and marketing.

We’re seeking a front-end–focused Platform Engineer (UI) (Contractor) to join the Digital Employee Experience team. You’ll build clean, scalable React interfaces, integrate with platform services, and own automated UI testing to ensure reliability. Familiarity with modern design systems and developer tooling is a plus. You’ll partner closely with product analysts, UX, and backend engineers to deliver consistent, high-performance experiences used across the enterprise.

• Build modern UI:
  Develop responsive, modular React components in Type Script; follow component‐driven development and maintain a shared library of reusable patterns.
• Design system integration:
  Implement designs using Spectrum (preferred) or equivalent systems; ensure consistency in layout, interactions, and theming across surfaces.
• Quality & test automation:
  Author and maintain UI test suites in Playwright (smoke, regression, critical user journeys); add test hooks and selectors to enable dependable automation.
• API integration:
  Connect views to REST/JSON services, handle state and data fetching, and implement robust error and loading states.
• Performance & reliability:
  Diagnose and fix client‐side bottlenecks (render churn, bundle size, network usage); monitor and address issues surfaced from logs and synthetic tests.
• Collaboration & delivery:
  Work with product analysts to clarify requirements, estimate effort, de‐risk edge cases, and participate in code reviews and iterative releases.
• Documentation:
  Document components, usage guidelines, and testing approaches so others can adopt patterns consistently.
• Developer experience (nice‐to‐have):
  Use coding assistants (e.g., Cursor) responsibly to speed routine work while preserving readability and standards.

• Strong proficiency with React, Type Script/JavaScript, and front‐end build tooling.
• Experience writing reliable automated UI tests with Playwright (or similar frameworks).
• Comfortable integrating REST/JSON APIs and managing client‐side state.
• Solid grasp of performance fundamentals (bundling, code‐splitting, memoization) and practical debugging.
• Clear communication and collaboration in agile teams; proactive in raising questions and simplifying complexity.
• Familiarity with enterprise-level design systems (nice-to-have).
• Familiarity with coding assistants (e.g., Cursor) and knowing when not to rely on them (nice‐to‐have).

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience).
• 3+ years building production React applications with Type Script.
• Hands‐on experience creating and maintaining UI automation with Playwright (Cypress/Selenium acceptable).
• Proficient with Git, pull requests, and team‐based review practices; exposure to CI/CD pipelines.
• Experience with Node. js‐based tooling (package managers, build scripts, test runners).
