Summary ✨ AI‑Generated

Take ownership of the frontend experience for multiple web applications in a fast-growing environment. With no dedicated design team, you will turn ideas into sketches, prototypes, polished interfaces, and production code. You will work across a TypeScript application and a PHP-based server-rendered environment, balancing strong visual design with solid engineering.

Highlights

A hybrid senior frontend role combining design thinking with hands-on engineering. You will have substantial creative ownership, shaping interfaces from concept and prototypes through implementation while working closely with technical leadership.

Description

On behalf of a fast-growing Belgian SaaS scale-up, we're looking for a senior front-end developer who thinks like a designer and builds like an engineer. This company helps businesses across Europe manage their finances more efficiently through complex web platforms. They're expanding fast and need someone who can shape the product's look and feel from scratch - not just implement someone else's mockups. There's no design team here. New screens and interactions start as a blank page, with only the brand's colours and typography as guardrails. You will sketch, prototype, and build those ideas themselves - working closely with the CTO day to day, and getting sign-off from leadership once a design is ready. It's a hybrid role: equal parts UI thinking and hands-on front-end development. One product is a TypeScript app; the other runs on a PHP backend with server-rendered templates. You are comfortable owning the front-end across both.
