Staff Software Engineer, Frontend Platform

$136.6k - $189k
Full-time

Modern Health

Role Description

We're looking for a Staff Frontend Engineer to set the technical foundation and direction for our frontend architecture across web and mobile on the Frontend Platform Team . This is a high-leverage role focused on shaping the patterns, tooling, and systems that every product engineer at Modern Health builds on top of.

You'll lead the evolution of our design system, component libraries, build/CI tooling, accessibility and internationalization (including RTL), and developer experience — ensuring our frontend stack is performant, scalable, and a joy to work in. While your center of gravity is the frontend, you're a full-stack engineer at heart: comfortable dropping into our Python/GraphQL services to align contracts, unblock product teams, or contribute backend changes when the platform calls for it.

This is a unique opportunity to use your coding powers to make a direct impact in people's lives, while empowering every engineer at Modern Health to deliver software that is high-quality, secure, and scalable. This role is eligible for remote work within the USA; however, this position is not eligible to be performed in Hawaii.

What You'll Do

  • Set the technical vision and long-term architectural direction for our frontend platform across web (React) and mobile (React Native).
  • Design, build, and evolve shared foundations — design system, component libraries, state management patterns, routing, build tooling (Vite), and testing frameworks.
  • Drive developer experience improvements: CI/CD pipelines, linting, type safety, code generation, MR/PR workflows, and metrics that surface platform health.
  • Own and advance accessibility (WCAG) and internationalization/RTL standards across the frontend ecosystem.
  • Partner with backend engineers to design and evolve GraphQL APIs powered by Python services (Django, Flask), and contribute backend changes when needed to unblock platform work.
  • Engineer efficient and reusable systems that drive complex web and mobile applications.
  • Maintain HIPAA and GDPR compliance and general security through best-practice implementation.
  • Lead ambiguous, large, or cross-team initiatives — collaborating closely with design, product, and engineering partners to deliver delightful and consistent user experiences.
  • Write and maintain technical documentation, unit tests, and integration tests.
  • Be a thought leader in strategic engineering and tech initiatives, and lead/contribute to cross-team engineering forums.
  • Mentor frontend and full-stack engineers to scale your impact across the engineering department.
  • Provide compassionate and impactful reviews of technical project plans and code.

Our Stack

  • Frontend: React, React Native, TypeScript, Redux, Vite
  • APIs: GraphQL, REST
  • Backend: Python, Django, Flask, aio
  • Data: PostgreSQL, Redis
  • Infra: Docker, Amazon Web Services (AWS) including ECS, RDS, CloudFront, etc.

Qualifications

  • 8+ years of relevant software development experience, with a clear focus on frontend engineering.
  • Deep expertise in React, TypeScript, and modern frontend tooling (Vite, Webpack, or similar); experience with React Native strongly preferred.
  • Proven track record designing and scaling frontend platforms, design systems, or shared component libraries used by multiple product teams.
  • Strong working knowledge of GraphQL (schema design, client tooling) and the ability to contribute meaningfully to backend services in Python (Django/Flask) when needed.
  • Experience driving frontend architecture decisions — state management, performance, bundling, rendering strategies, and testing.
  • Strong grasp of web performance, accessibility (WCAG), and internationalization (including RTL is a plus).
  • Experience improving developer experience and CI/CD for frontend codebases (linting, type checks, automated testing, MR/PR workflows, metrics).
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to influence across teams.
  • Ability to work effectively with and mentor a distributed engineering team.
  • Experience leading and architecting large-scale projects as a technical thought leader.
  • Passion for building something to improve the lives of others.

Bonus Points If You Have Experience In

  • Native mobile development (iOS/Android) beyond React Native.
  • Building or contributing to a design system at scale (Figma Code Connect, tokens, theming).
  • Real-time messaging and notification flows (including push notifications).
  • AI-assisted developer tooling (e.g., agentic coding tools, code generation, LLM-powered DX).
  • Working with AWS or other cloud platforms.
  • SQL, bash, or other scripting languages to facilitate debugging or developer experience contributions.
  • Working at a high-growth startup, on SaaS software, or in Health Tech / HR Tech.

Benefits

  • Medical / Dental / Vision / Disability / Life Insurance
  • High Deductible Health Plan with Health Savings Account (HSA) option
  • Flexible Spending Account (FSA)
  • Access to coaches and therapists through Modern Health's platform
  • Flexible Time Off
  • Company-wide Collective Pause Days
  • Parental Leave Policy
  • Family Forming Benefit through Carrot
  • Family Assistance Benefit through UrbanSitter
  • Professional Development Stipend
  • 401k
  • Financial Planning Benefit through Origin
  • Annual Wellness Stipend to use on items that promote your overall well being
  • New Hire Stipend to help cover work-from-home setup costs
  • ModSquad Community: Virtual events like active ERGs, holiday themed activities, team-building events and more
  • Monthly Cell Phone Reimbursement
