Senior Software Engineer, UI

Are you passionate about building scalable UI frameworks that elevate developer experience and accelerate product delivery? Do you enjoy identifying the right design patterns to build a sustainable component library that enables exceptional developer experiences and expedites product delivery? Are you excited to contribute to a high-leverage platform team that shapes the UI foundation of an entire Fin Tech ecosystem? If so, we invite you to be a part of our innovative team.

As a Senior Software Engineer on Ridgeline’s UI Experience team, you’ll play a mission‑critical role in building and evolving the core UI framework and component library that powers our next‑generation investment management platform. This team lays the foundation for our application user interfaces, enabling product engineers to quickly deliver high‑quality, cohesive experiences to our customers. You’ll collaborate deeply across teams, guiding architecture decisions and influencing the way Ridgeline builds software.

Leveraging cutting‑edge technologies—including AI tools like Cursor and ChatGPT—you’ll drive innovation, boost developer efficiency, and improve the quality and scalability of our front‑end systems.

At Ridgeline, how we work matters as much as what we build. Ridgeliners act like owners, choose growth over comfort, and communicate with transparency. We assume positive intent, bias toward action, and bring solutions—not just problems. We celebrate wins, learn from setbacks, and thrive in a resilient, collaborative, high‑performing culture. If the Ridgeline Way excites you, we’d love to meet you.
