Why hire this role

Why hire a senior frontend engineer

1

First impression, every time

Performance, polish and accessibility are what users feel in the first ten seconds. That’s all frontend.

2

Depth, not just “React devs”

Plenty of people know React. Few know state, performance and design collaboration at a senior level. We find those.

3

Owns the surface

Design systems, Core Web Vitals, complex dashboards, Next.js migrations, handled properly, not patched.

FAQ

Hiring senior frontend engineers, your questions

What makes a frontend engineer “senior”?

Depth in state management, performance and accessibility; the judgment to own a design system; and the ability to collaborate with design and backend without supervision.

React vs Next.js, what should I hire for?

Next.js if you need SSR/SSG, routing and a full framework; React alone if you’re embedding into an existing app. We screen for both and advise on the call.

Frontend engineer vs full-stack, which do I need?

Hire frontend when your product surface and UX are the priority. If you need the backend and model layer too, see full-stack / AI engineers.

Do your frontend engineers handle design / UX collaboration?

Yes, we specifically screen for design-handoff and collaboration, because senior frontend work is as much about partnership as code.

Can they own performance and accessibility?

Yes. Core Web Vitals and a11y are part of our screen, not afterthoughts.

How do you test frontend ability?

A live UI build plus code review and a design-collaboration scenario, real craft, not abstract algorithm puzzles.

Direct-hire or freelance for a frontend role?

Direct-hire for a long-term owner; a freelance team for a bounded project. We’ll help you choose.

What does a senior React / Next.js engineer in LatAm cost?

Typically 50% below US comp for the same seniority. See the Compensation Report for ranges.
