Front-End Lead @ Xyicon – Where Vision Meets Code

Are you a leader with an eye for detail, a passion for solving complex problems, and the drive to guide a high-performing team?

At Xyicon, we’re not just building software - we’re shaping how large corporations operate. From designing the hospitals of tomorrow to orchestrating jet fleets in the sky, our SaaS platform powers decisions where precision, performance, and scalability matter most.

We’re looking for a Front-End Team Lead to be the technical and cultural cornerstone of our UI development. This role is more than writing code - it’s about architecting and maintaining an enterprise-grade codebase that sets industry standards, while cultivating a team that grows together and as individuals with strong technical and soft skills.


Why This Role?

  • Sharp Attention to Detail
    You’ll guide the design and development of user interfaces where every interaction matters - ensuring consistency, polish, and reliability across a complex product ecosystem
  • Solve Problems at the Edge of Possibility
    We work at the intersection of hardware and software, tackling challenges that stretch technology to its limits. You’ll architect solutions that are not only innovative but also scalable and sustainable.
  • Architect & Maintain Enterprise Codebases
    You’ll own the front-end architecture - balancing cutting-edge practices with long-term maintainability. The systems you design will meet enterprise-grade standards in performance, accessibility, and security.
  • Lead & Grow a High-Impact Team
    Your role goes beyond code. You’ll build a front-end team that works seamlessly together, while mentoring individuals to sharpen both their technical expertise and soft skills, helping them grow into leaders with vision.

What You Need to Know

  • Deep understanding of React.js - strong command of its ecosystem, patterns, and best practices.
  • Fluent in JavaScript (ES6+), TypeScript, HTML5, and CSS3.
  • Hands-on with build tools (Webpack, Vite, etc.) and code quality tooling (linters, testing frameworks, CI pipelines).
  • Experience with complex asynchronous workflows in web-based systems.
  • Full-stack programming knowledge is a strong plus.

Who You Are

  • Seasoned Software Engineer: You have 9+ years in software development, including 4+ years in front-end development with experience maintaining complex, fast-growing codebases. You set and uphold high coding standards, ensuring the team delivers scalable, performant, and bug-free software.
  • Leader: You work cross-functionally, clarifying and refining requirements, drawing technical insights, and designing scalable solutions. You oversee your team’s performance and quality, establish a long-term vision for the application, and lay the technical foundation to achieve it. You shield your team from distractions and keep them focused on delivering high-quality results.
  • Mentor: You invest in understanding your team members, guiding them to grow their technical and professional skills. You provide constructive, actionable feedback during code reviews, cultivate their strengths, and position them for long-term success. You establish governance processes that enable the team to take greater responsibility and operate smoothly.
  • Detail-Oriented & User-Focused: You balance requirements, design, and implementation with precision. You help the team capture edge cases they may miss, while holding the bar high for polish, consistency, and pixel-perfect user experiences.
