Job Description
Senior Frontend Engineer – m/f/d
Univention
• Secure frontend architecture: You design and implement framework-agnostic Web Components. • Build a design system: You develop a centralized design system based on native web standards. • Evolve the Vue.js application landscape: You take ownership of an existing codebase, perform an assessment and gradually migrate it to the new design system. • Accessibility: You develop according to WCAG guidelines. • Bring the frontend perspective: You contribute the frontend view in API discussions with backend engineers, architects and product managers. • Ensure quality: You are responsible for appropriate test coverage — unit tests, component tests, end-to-end tests.
Job Requirements
- Essential web-standards expertise: Deep knowledge of vanilla JavaScript, HTML5, CSS3 and Web Components (Custom Elements, Shadow DOM).
- Security mindset: Clear understanding of the OWASP Top 10 — XSS, CSRF, misconfigured CORS, and Content Security Policy (CSP).
- Vue.js experience: Refactoring and debugging grown/legacy code, state management (Pinia/Vuex), and router structures.
- Accessibility: Solid WCAG knowledge; BITV 2.0 (German accessibility guideline) is a plus.
- UX judgement: You independently make UX decisions even without a dedicated design team.
- Technological resilience: You can assess an unfamiliar codebase in a structured way, prioritize work and continue development without panic.
- AI as a working method: You use AI-assisted tools in your daily work by default — this is an expectation, not optional.
- Language: Very good command of English, written and spoken — English is our working language.
- Nice-to-have: TypeScript (strongly preferred), basic Python for reading backend code, Linux environments, Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD experience, basic IAM understanding, German language skills.
Benefits
- Flexibility: Work remotely or on-site — with working hours that fit your life.
- Hardware of your choice: Linux, Mac or Windows — you decide.
- Professional development: We actively and structurally support your growth.
- Learning & exchange: Conferences, workshops and internal and external hackathons.
- Appreciation: We foster an open and respectful company culture with short decision-making paths.
- Freedom: Flexible vacation policies and opportunities for workation within the EU.
- Security: Permanent employment in a meaningful and future-oriented environment.
