Senior Frontend Engineer

Hacker Rank helps thousands of companies like OpenAI, NVIDIA, and Amazon hire developers based on their skills vs. pedigree, and also nurtures a community of millions of developers to upskill themselves to become next‑gen developers.

The people at Hacker Rank care deeply about their work and have an extremely intense work ethic. In many companies, speed & quality is a tradeoff. At Hacker Rank, it’s not -- we expect you to ship in about half the time that most competent people think is possible while maintaining a standard of quality you’d proudly sign your name on.

The only way to make this happen is if you truly love your craft and are deeply committed to growth.
