THE ROLE
We are hiring a Senior Frontend Engineer for two platform products:
-
Xsolla ID is the identity and authentication platform behind sign-in, account management and SSO across Xsolla products.
-
Xsolla ZK is Web3 wallet infrastructure: smart wallets and account abstraction on a zkSync-based L2.
Both products sit on users' most sensitive flows: logging in and signing transactions.
Responsibilities
WHAT YOU WILL OWN
-
The frontend of your product area end to end: shaping tasks with Product and Design, implementation, release and production monitoring
-
Technical decisions for that frontend. You make them and justify them in writing, rather than only implementing someone else's
-
The architecture of frontend applications and the shared UI library / SDK that other teams build on
-
Measurable frontend quality: performance, reliability and security of user flows
-
Design and build user flows: sign-in, account management, wallet onboarding and transaction signing
-
Track how these flows behave in production (errors, performance, drop-offs) and act on what you see
-
Make architectural decisions for frontend applications and document them
-
Develop the shared component library and frontend SDKs used by other Xsolla teams
-
Agree API contracts with backend engineers, including error handling, retries and edge cases
-
Own performance budgets: Core Web Vitals and bundle size
-
Improve the engineering environment: build, linters, tests, CI
-
Review code
-
Set up and maintain AI tooling in the repositories (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor: rules, context, harness) so the team uses it effectively
WHAT YOU WILL DO
Nice to have
Language and platform
-
5+ years of commercial frontend development
-
TypeScript in strict mode: generics, utility types, discriminated unions, typing module boundaries and external data
-
JavaScript at the platform level: event loop, asynchrony, closures, memory. You can find a leak and explain its cause
-
Deep experience with React: rendering model, profiling, eliminating unnecessary re-renders
-
Separating local, server and global state, and justifying the choice of tool; reasoning about when SSR is worth it
-
Semantic, responsive, cross-browser layout; modern CSS (CSS Modules, CSS-in-JS)
-
Accessibility: ARIA, keyboard navigation, screen reader support
-
Performance analysis: profiling, bundle analysis, Core Web Vitals
-
REST API integration: error handling, retries, request cancellation, contract alignment with backend
-
Web security fundamentals: XSS, CSRF, CSP, secure handling of tokens, sessions and user data
-
Testing at the right level: unit, integration, E2E
-
Git, CI, Docker, linters and formatters
-
Daily hands-on use of AI coding tools (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor) for development and review, including configuring them for a repository
-
Reading technical documentation in English
-
Experience in security-sensitive domains: authentication and identity (OAuth2/OIDC flows on the frontend), payments, crypto wallets
-
Web3 frontend: wallet integration (embedded and browser wallets), EIP-1193, EIP-6963, EIP-712; viem, wagmi, ethers.js
-
Next.js or Nuxt, SSR in production
-
Design systems and component API design, UI kits
-
Hybrid applications: WebView, React Native
Frameworks and state
UI quality and performance
Integration and security
