ReactJS Developer

Job Description for Senior Frontend Engineer

Job Title: Senior Frontend Engineer

Company: Mydbops

Job Overview:

We’re building an agentic AI database platform where intelligent automation meets intuitive design. Join our small, execution-focused development team powered by deep database expertise as we redefine how teams monitor and optimize database performance.

About Mydbops

Mydbops helps fast-growing teams and unicorns run mission-critical databases with speed, scale, and reliability. Trusted by 800+ clients, including 30+ unicorns, we optimize and manage systems like MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, MariaDB, TiDB, and Cassandra, powering 10B+ transactions daily across industries such as fintech, SaaS, healthcare, logistics, and e-commerce.

With 9+ years of deep expertise, we build automation tools, lead complex migrations, and solve high-impact performance and database challenges. We are ISO and PCI-DSS certified, combining engineering excellence with enterprise-grade security and compliance.

Role:

You'll architect and build our frontend from the ground up, crafting a modern, production-ready agentic AI application that makes complex database insights clear, accessible, and actionable. In this high-impact role, your technical decisions will shape how our platform scales and evolves.

What You'll Own

• Design and implement the entire frontend architecture using modern technologies
• Build responsive, performant UIs that handle real-time data and complex user workflows
• Collaborate closely with backend and AI teams to define system boundaries, advocate for optimal data flows, and craft experiences that make AI accessible
• Establish engineering standards for testing, CI/CD, and code quality
• Balance technical excellence with product intuition and a deep focus on user experience

What We're Looking For

Core Requirements:

• 3 to 5 Years building production frontends with proven performance, security, and architectural ownership
• Strong proficiency in React, TypeScript, and modern component-based architecture
• Deep knowledge of authentication, RBAC, session management, and frontend security best practices
• Experience with state management (e.g., Redux, Zustand) and integrating complex or real-time APIs
• Strong design intuition with exposure to design systems, responsive UX, and accessibility standards
• Experience building real-time UIs, data visualizations, or telemetry dashboards
• Familiarity with data visualization libraries like Recharts, D3, Chart.js, or similar open-source solutions
• A track record of clean, maintainable code and a proactive ownership mindset

Culture Fit

We value execution over meetings, ownership over hand-holding, and long-term thinking over quick fixes. We're looking for someone who:

• Takes initiative and drives projects to completion independently
• Writes clean, maintainable code with testing in mind
• Cares equally about performance, security, and user experience
• Balances technical debt with product velocity and user impact

This role likely isn't a fit if:

• You need daily task breakdowns to make progress
• You haven't built and shipped production-grade applications end-to-end
• You avoid dealing with performance, authentication, or architecture
• You prefer polishing UI components over solving deep product problems

Ready to help build intelligent database performance tools? We'd love to hear from you.

Job Details:

• Job Type: Full-time opportunity 
• Work time: General Shift
• Mode of Employment - Hybrid (Chennai Location)
• Experience - 3 to 5 years

What your role would be?

We are seeking a Front End Developer to join our core engineering team. Teams are explicitly small and built on mutual respect and high trust. It's not a fit for everyone, but when there's a fit, it’s one of the most rewarding places to work.

Job Responsibilities and Duties

We believe the best product is the one that helps users accomplish their goals while growing the business. To join us on this journey, you'll be required to:

• Build reusable code and libraries for future use.
• Ensure the technical feasibility of UI/UX designs.
• Optimize applications for performance and scalability.

Job Requirements:

You’ll thrive as a Front End Developer at StoryXpress if you:

• Have a good understanding of the core fundamentals of JavaScript
• Have 2+ years designing and implementing rich front-end experiences in React
• Are an expert in web technologies ( HTML5 | CSS3 | ES6 )
• Possess a thorough understanding of the MVC principle and JS design patterns
• Have experience with building user interfaces consuming data from REST APIs

Brownie points!

Your application would be seriously prioritized if you:

• Are a self-starter: you have started something on your own before - a startup, an open-source project, something else.
• Experienced in building and/or maintaining chrome extensions
• Indulged in projects around Data Visualization
• UX design principles and frameworks
• Are acquainted with testing frameworks and performance measurement tools

If you don’t meet 100% of the above qualifications, you should still seriously consider applying. Studies show that you can still be considered for a role if you meet just 50% of the role’s requirements. We’re building a diverse team whose skills balance and complement one another.

Why work with us?

You'll love working and growing with StoryXpress if you are comfortable:

• With and curious about working outside of a traditional narrow engineering role.
• Engaging in collaborative problem-solving with your teammates.
• Moving fast: we build, solve problems quickly, and ship often!

Ready to apply?

Are you excited at the possibility of developing an already stellar team to meet the growing needs of our platform and business?
