Requirements

Must:
What we're looking for * 4+ years of frontend engineering experience with modern JavaScript (vanilla) or frameworks such as React, Vue, SvelteKit or Next.js. * Strong command of modern TypeScript in a complex B2B or technical product environment. * Experience with AI developer tools (Cursor, Claude, Copilot, etc.). * Proven track record shipping scalable, user-friendly interfaces in fast-moving environments. * Solid understanding of frontend performance, testing, and CI/CD practices. * Comfortable working directly with users — you can run a discovery conversation and translate what you hear into product decisions. * Comfortable making progress when the path isn't fully defined — you can scope, prioritise, and ship without waiting for perfect clarity. * Clear communicator who collaborates well across a team, including with non-technical stakeholders.
Nice to have:
* Background in B2B SaaS platforms or construction / procurement tech. * Familiarity with GCP or data-heavy product architectures. * An eye for UI/UX design — experience contributing to or driving design decisions. * German language skills (bonus, not required).

Responsibilities

The Role Frontend development is being reinvented, and we want someone leading that charge at Scalera. You'll use AI tooling to ship at a pace that raises the bar for the whole team, while bringing real UI/UX craft to a complex product that rewards it. You'll work directly with users, own the experience end-to-end, and define what great looks like at Scalera. The problems we work on are rarely solved with off-the-shelf tools. We value engineers who are comfortable exploring, iterating, and discovering the right solution through experimentation. What You’ll Do * Lead frontend development with React and Next.js, building interfaces that make AI-driven procurement workflows accessible and intuitive. * Collaborate with backend engineers on API contracts and integrations, ensuring seamless data flow between services and UI. * Own frontend performance, accessibility, and code quality — setting standards and maintaining them as the product scales. * Work directly with users and customers to understand pain points and translate them into product improvements. * Ship features end-to-end: from problem discovery through implementation, testing, and production. * Contribute to UI/UX decisions. You don't need to be a designer, but you should have strong instincts for what makes a complex interface work.
