Senior Front-End Developer

Role Description

Bring your technical expertise, passion, and curiosity to a creative and energetic team that builds innovative digital experiences for our clients. As a Senior Front-End Developer, you'll work closely with every part of One North. You'll partner with industry-leading strategists and designers, build alongside architects and developers, and help shape the work from kickoff to launch. In an increasingly competitive digital market, our developers are given the space to invent, problem solve, explore, fix, and create.

The Senior Front-End Developer will ideally be based in the Chicago area for a light hybrid onsite/remote work model, but we are open to remote locations across the U.S. and Canada.

Itching to extend and build upon your passion for digital craft? You found the right place.

Key Responsibilities

• Craft beautiful, useful end-user experiences while engineering for performance, accessibility, and maintainability
• Bring expert-level command of the tools, processes, and approaches behind world-class front-end work
• Demonstrate genuine appreciation for UX/UI and creative design principles and translate design intent into pixel-considered builds
• Collaborate with multi-disciplinary teammates to deliver strategic solutions to our clients' challenges
• Act as the technical lead on front-end projects, providing thoughtful guidance, code review, and mentorship
• Contribute to and help evolve our internal standards, component patterns, and engineering practices

Qualifications

• 3 or more years of experience, ideally in an agency or consulting environment
• Advanced practitioner of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript using current best practices
• Strong proficiency with TypeScript. Comfortable in a typed codebase and able to model complex data well
• Significant production experience with React and Next.js
• Bespoke CSS/SCSS fluency. Comfortable architecting styles from scratch without leaning on Tailwind or other utility frameworks. We value craft over shortcuts here
• Experience designing, building, and consuming component libraries and design systems
• Deep proficiency with Figma and the broader Figma product suite (Figma Design, Dev Mode, FigJam, variables, libraries). You can navigate complex files, spot opportunities and conflicts early, and partner fluently with designers
• Ability to build resilient, responsive sites that deliver consistent experiences across screen sizes, devices, and browsers
• Demonstrated ability to meet WCAG 2.2 accessibility standards
• Solid grasp of SEO fundamentals, especially semantic markup and Core Web Vitals
• Hands-on experience with headless CMSs (Contentful, Sanity, Contentstack, or similar), including content modeling collaboration in addition to integration
• Comfortable integrating third-party libraries and SDKs to meet project requirements
• Confident with Git workflows, branching strategies, and code review
• Experience with JavaScript animation libraries (GSAP, Framer Motion, Three.js, etc.)

Working with AI Tools

We expect our Senior developers to have hands-on experience with AI-assisted development tools (Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code, etc.) and a clear point of view on where they help and where they hurt. It's equally important that you can do excellent work without them. AI accelerates good engineers, and the fundamentals still matter. We're looking for people who reach for AI as one tool among many.

Soft Skills

• Effective communicator who genuinely enjoys collaboration
• Sharp eye for detail and high personal standards around the work
• Professional curiosity, with a habit of staying current on where the industry is heading
• Engaged in best practices, standards, and the broader front-end community
