We are looking for a Head of Frontend Engineering to lead a large engineering unit (~70+ engineers, including Team Leads) and drive the development of our frontend direction, engineering culture, and product quality.
This is a systems and leadership role, focused on scaling teams, improving engineering processes, and influencing architecture — not day-to-day hands-on development.
Your Mission:
-
Lead the frontend organization (engineering + UI/design teams), ~70+ engineers
-
Scale teams through Team Leads and develop engineering leaders
-
Build and evolve engineering culture, standards, and best practices
-
Design and improve development and delivery processes
-
Ensure quality, stability, and predictability of product delivery
-
Participate in architectural decisions (including microfrontend approach)
-
Manage technical debt and improve system sustainability
-
Drive hiring and development of key engineering talent
-
Collaborate closely with Product, Backend, and Design teams
Your Unique Contribution:
-
5+ years of engineering leadership experience, including managing 40+ people through Team Leads
-
Proven experience scaling engineering organizations and delivery processes
-
Strong background in frontend development
-
Experience developing engineers and tech leads (mentoring, performance management, growth planning)
-
Understanding of complex frontend architectures
-
Experience with high-load web applications
-
Strong communication skills and experience working in cross-functional teams
-
Fluency in Russian is required for effective day-to-day collaboration within the engineering team
Technology context:
-
Vue (2/3) / React
-
TypeScript
-
State management: Pinia, Vuex and similar solutions
-
Microfrontend architecture (Webpack Module Federation)
-
Webpack
-
Jest and unit testing
What’s in It for You:
-
Leadership of a large frontend engineering organization (~70+ engineers)
-
Strong influence on architecture and core product direction
-
Highly skilled engineering and leadership team
-
Remote-first work format or office option
-
Competitive compensation (discussed individually)
-
Opportunity to shape engineering processes and strategy
-
Learning & development support (training, conferences, knowledge sharing)
-
Open and collaborative environment where you can actively shape systems, not just maintain them
