About the role

We are looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer to build personalized, high-complexity email templates and reusable components using React, TypeScript, and Apache Velocity, integrating live API data to deliver dynamically populated, production-ready email experiences. You will translate Figma designs into modular, scalable code frameworks within an internal email platform, develop responsive email experiences, and build lifecycle marketing audiences using SQL and custom APIs. You will also collaborate with Design Systems to evolve the platform toward a modern, modular, AI-assisted self-service architecture.

What you will do

  • Complex Programmatic Email Development: Build personalized, high-complexity email templates, as well as reusable product-specific components by consuming data from various APIs and injecting it seamlessly into email UI logic. Reusable components will be built in React, Velocity, and any external email tool.
  • The Complex Build Bottleneck: Unblock the immediate pipeline of complex, data-heavy campaigns that require engineering depth beyond static layouts.
  • Campaign Enablement: Turn Figma files into modular, responsive, and reusable code components within our email tools.
  • Audience & Traffic Management: Create and optimize lifecycle marketing campaign audiences using complex SQL queries and custom APIs.
  • Audience Building Support: Reduce reliance on external engineering and partner team priorities that build campaigns in CommsHub.
  • Tooling & Platform Evolution: Collaborate with Design Systems to transition the team toward a modern, modular, and AI-assisted self-service architecture.
  • Dynamic Content Deliverables: Deliver production-ready, dynamically populated email templates—often utilizing Apache Velocity JS code (e.g., automated summaries, ROI dashboards) powered by live API data.
  • Scalable Code Frameworks: Build clean, scalable code frameworks within CommsHub (our internal email tool) that pull directly from internal data sources.
  • A/B Testing & Integrity: Ensure fully validated A/B testing setups with complete data and measurement tracking integrity.

Must haves

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field with 4+ years of related experience, OR a Master’s degree with 3+ years of experience.
  • Your most recent role on your resume should be as a Software Engineer with a front-end focus. This role prioritizes strong software engineering principles over traditional email production.
  • Robust front-end development experience using modern web technologies (React is highly prioritized, TypeScript, and JavaScript).
  • Proven experience integrating user interfaces with backend platforms, ideally for email-specific purposes.
  • Strong command of Apache Velocity (VTL) and Macros (#set, #if, #foreach, #define), understanding how components compose into full templates.
  • While Apache Velocity is preferred, candidates without direct Velocity experience will be considered if they have strong hands-on experience with server-side templating technologies, with a proven ability to architect, write, and implement complex template logic and reusable macros from scratch.
  • Mastery of hand-coding highly responsive, accessible HTML/CSS optimized to bypass the rendering limitations of email clients (Outlook, Gmail, Apple Mail).
  • Experience working with scalable design systems, building and using shared components over one-off layouts.
  • Strong architectural judgment on when to extend an existing component versus when to build a new one.
  • Highly fluent with Git (GitLab/GitHub), the command line, and modern IDEs (e.g., Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code).
  • Upper-Intermediate English level.

Nice to haves

  • Prior Email Experience: Past experience in email development is valued, but remains secondary to strong, core front-end engineering principles.
  • AI Tooling: Practical experience leveraging AI developer tools (such as Cursor, Windsurf, Claude, or AI-driven code fixes) to accelerate development and operational workflows.
  • Localization: Prior exposure to component internationalization (i18n) and localization frameworks.
  • Design Tools: Familiarity with Figma, specifically for translating designs into modular code components.
  • Cloud Infrastructure: Basic understanding of AWS primitives (compute, storage, networking, IAM).
  • DevOps / CI-CD: Experience with Infrastructure-as-Code tooling (e.g., Terraform) and CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitLab CI).

Perks

  • Growth without limits: build your skills through mentorship, internal TechTalks, challenging projects, and a dedicated annual learning budget
  • Competitive compensation: get recognition that reflects your skills and impact, with regular performance and compensation reviews
  • Flexibility: work 100% remotely with flexible hours that support focus, autonomy, and a healthy work rhythm
  • Meaningful, modern projects: build impactful products using modern technologies alongside global teams and leading brands
  • Collaborative culture: join a supportive environment with zero micromanagement where ideas are welcomed and contributions are recognized
  • Well-being & support: access local well-being programs and people-focused support tailored to your location

FAQ

Have any questions?

What is the work format and schedule?

We are a remote-first company, so all our positions are remote. Schedules are flexible, but the main requirement is to have an overlap with your client’s schedule to ensure smooth collaboration. Specific details depend on the project and are discussed during the interview process.

What level of English is required?

We look for Upper-Intermediate (B2) proficiency or higher. Since you will be collaborating with international teams and global clients (including Fortune 500 companies), English is a part of your daily work.

Does AgileEngine provide work equipment?

It depends on your location. We provide equipment in Ukraine, Poland, Argentina, Colombia, Mexico, Brazil, Guatemala, Portugal, Spain, and India. In the USA, equipment is usually provided by the client; otherwise, you will be expected to use your own setup.

What opportunities for professional growth do you offer?

We support continuous growth through personalized development paths tailored to each expert. Also, you can expect:

  • An annual learning and development budget
  • Internal workshops, tech talks, and mentorship programs
  • Opportunities to switch projects or grow into new roles over time

What does a typical team look like, and what tools do you use?

Teams vary by project, but you’ll usually work with a mix of experts across different fields, along with a delivery or project manager who supports collaboration and onboarding.

For day-to-day work, teams commonly use tools like Jira and Google Workspace, along with communication platforms such as Google Chat. Depending on the client, you may also work with Slack, Confluence, Notion, or similar tools.
