Head of Front End

We are working with a new, fully remote market maker on prediction markets, funded by a tier 1 operator to build next-generation trading systems, leveraging huge industry IP & resources from the tier 1 operator. The founding team includes true industry veterans with a vision for the future. They are building a lean, fully remote, senior team focused on high-performance systems, pragmatic engineering, and rapid iteration. They are looking for a Head of Front End to build fast, ergonomic internal trading tools that give engineers and traders real-time visibility into exchange activity and the ability to interact directly with our systems — from monitoring live order flow to operational controls and order book interaction. Responsibilities Create interactive operational tools that let traders and engineers manage live activity (e.g., enable/disable trading, manage positions, send system commands). Own end-to-end delivery: design front-ends and lightweight backend services (REST/WebSockets) that aggregate and stream data. Define front-end standards (state management, testing, performance) and build reusable component libraries/design systems. Design resilient real-time systems with strong telemetry and observability. Partner directly with traders and engineers to translate workflows into intuitive interfaces — strong product instincts required. Maintain high code quality through reviews, automation, and documentation. Requirements 5+ years building complex, data-heavy or real-time front-end applications. Strong expertise in React and TypeScript, state management (Redux, Zustand, etc.), and testing (Jest, RTL). Experience with WebSockets/SSE and data visualization tools (Highcharts, D3, Recharts). Ability to build and own lightweight backend services (e.g., Python/FastAPI); not a pure front-end role. Pragmatic UX judgment without dedicated design support. Active use of AI coding tools as part of your daily development workflow. Domain Experience Sports betting (markets, odds, trading/risk tooling). Financial or prediction markets (exchange/derivatives background). Strong independent interest demonstrated via side projects or deep self-study. Nice to Have AG Grid or similar enterprise data grids. Order book visualization and exchange mechanics. Electron or desktop packaging experience. #J-18808-Ljbffr BettingJobs
