Job Description:

Metronome is looking for a Frontend Architect to take ownership of our frontend web platform. You’ll guide the migration and modernization of our web platform, shape our frontend architecture, and set the bar for how we ship UI across the product. This role combines deep technical ownership with cross-functional influence. You’ll partner with design leadership to harness contributions from our design team, who actively ship frontend code, and turn that energy into a structured task force that drives polish and velocity across pillars. Your work will directly shape how every customer experiences Metronome’s product.

Job Responsibility:

Lead frontend foundations & ownership: Set the strategy and standards for how frontend is built, maintained, and owned across multiple pillars
Drive design system adoption: Align Figma, Storybook, and code
Raise quality: Put testing, review, and linting practices in place so high-quality UI becomes the default
Mentor & multiply: Coach engineers and designers on building polished, accessible UI
Elevate client trust: Ensure our frontend polish, interaction standards, and performance reflect the strength of our systems

Requirements:

7+ years of frontend engineering experience
Significant time spent in React, TypeScript, TailwindCSS, and modern component library architecture
Experience leading frontend migrations, refactors, or design system overhauls at scale
Deep understanding of accessibility, performance optimization, testing, and interaction fidelity
Proven collaboration with design teams on design system evolution
Comfortable working in both Figma and Storybook
Clear communicator who can explain technical decisions across engineering, design, product, and leadership
Demonstrated ability to operate as a technical leader or architect, setting standards across product areas
Growth mindset and openness to collaboration, especially with design, who are active contributors to frontend code

Nice to have:

Experience introducing opinionated component APIs, semantic tokens, or scalable design tokens
Past work on enterprise or developer-focused products where polish and trust directly affected adoption
Experience shaping contribution models and governance for frontend systems
Comfort balancing feature velocity with long-term system health

What we offer:

Excellent medical, dental, vision, and life insurance coverage, including a One Medical membership
Paid parental leave
FSA (Flexible spending account)
Retirement planning - Traditional and ROTH 401(k)
Flexible time off
Employee assistance program (mental health benefits)
Culture where personal growth is highly valued
Market-benched equity
Sales incentive pay (for eligible roles)
