Discussion

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
