Front End Architect

Lead Front-End Architect (React)

Build the Future of Real Estate Tech

Smarter Contact is the #1 messaging platform for real estate professionals in the U.S. Our SaaS product powers millions of conversations every month, helping real estate professionals close more deals through smart SMS, voice, and automation.

We're growing fast and need a true front-end architect — someone who’s already led major React projects at scale and wants to take full ownership of the front-end across multiple products.

If you’re used to freelancing, maintaining apps, or following Jira tickets — this isn’t the role for you.

If you're the kind of engineer who designs systems from scratch, challenges product decisions, and wants to ship better UX than 99% of SaaS apps out there — we want to talk.

🔥 What You’ll Own

• Lead the implementation of our front-end architecture and drive it to completion
• Collaborate daily with product managers, designers, and backend engineers to deliver user-first features
• Own performance, UX, and component library quality across the platform
• Spot issues before they happen, communicate proactively, and help unblock the team
• Be a key voice representing the FE discipline in cross-functional conversations

🧠 What We’re Looking For

• 8+ years experience, with at least 5 years building and scaling React apps in production
• Deep expertise in React + TypeScript, state management, and frontend optimization
• Strong experience with Chakra UI, GraphQL (Apollo), and modern tooling like Vite
• You’ve worked with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GCP Cloud Build) and Sentry monitoring
• You think like a product owner — every feature you build solves a real customer problem
• You're a team player who listens, speaks up, and supports the group’s success

Bonus Points (Not Required)

• Experience with React Native or mobile-first architecture
• Messaging, voice, or real-time communications background
• You’ve scaled SaaS apps in fast-growth startup environments

⚡️ Why Smarter Contact?

• Competitive compensation — we pay top-of-market for top talent
• Clear growth path and autonomy — we value speed, skill, and ownership
• Build for builders — work on tools that actually get used by the whole team
• 15 days PTO + 5 sick days + 10 floating holidays
• Professional development budget
• Health & wellness benefit
• Remote-first team solving real customer problems at scale

🚫 Please Don’t Apply If:

• You're not highly proficient in English (written, spoken, and comprehension)
• You're looking for a second job or part-time. We work in squads and collaborate ALL DAY LONG
• You don’t meet the technical criteria listed above — this is a senior-level role
• You lack professional experience in SaaS, cloud-based systems, or modern JavaScript frameworks
• You’re not comfortable working full stack or taking ownership of architecture-level decisions
• You’re looking for an entry-level, training-heavy, or low-pressure engineering role
