Senior Front End Engineer

Role overview

Svitla Systems Inc. is looking for a Senior Front End Engineer for a full-time position (40 hours per week) in Argentina. Our client is one of the world’s largest and fastest-growing job sites.

REQUIREMENTS

• A bachelor’s degree in Computer Science/Engineering (or related field) with a minimum of 5 years of related experience, or a Master’s degree with 3+ years of experience. Solid experience as a front-end engineer, not an email developer first. Understanding of front-end development using modern web technologies (React is most important, TypeScript/JavaScript), and integrating user interfaces with backend platforms, ideally for email-specific purposes. A strong knowledge of macros ( #set, #if, #foreach, #define). Understanding of scalable design systems, building and using shared components over one-off, hand-authored HTML, and knowledge of when to extend a component versus build a new one. Strong knowledge of Git (GitLab/GitHub), the command line, and your IDE of choice (Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code). Experience building for scale and personalization. Expertise in authoring a template once and launching it to 100+ locales, with localized copy and second-level personalization (per-recipient jobs with different criteria, dynamic data, looping through arrays). Proven experience connecting to, querying, and consuming data from various internal/external APIs, and formatting that data into conditional, logic-driven dynamic emails. Understanding of hand-coding highly responsive, accessible HTML/CSS optimized to bypass the rendering limitations of email clients (Outlook, Gmail, Apple Mail). Apache Velocity (VTL) is preferred: candidates without direct Velocity experience may be considered only if they have strong hands-on experience with server-side templating technologies and can demonstrate a solid understanding of template logic, including reading, writing, and using macros (not just making minor template edits).

• NICE TO HAVE

• Experience with AWS. Knowledge of Terraform. Familiarity with GitLab CI/CD. Familiarity with Figma. Experience with Email is secondary to front-end experience. Practical experience leveraging AI tooling (e.g., Cursor, Windsurf, Claude, or AI-driven code fixes) to accelerate development and operational workflows. Prior exposure to component internationalization and localization frameworks.

• We offer

• US and EU projects based on advanced technologies. Competitive compensation based on skills and experience. Comprehensive private medical insurance. Regular performance appraisals to support your growth. Flexibility in workspace, either remote, our welcoming office or local coworking. Bonuses for recommendations of new employees. Bonuses for article writing, public talks, other activities. 15 vacation days, 10 national holidays, 10 sick leaves. Personalized learning program tailored to your interests and skill development. Free tech webinars and meetups organized by Svitla. Fun corporate online/offline celebrations and activities. Well-established remote culture. Awesome team, friendly and supportive community!
