The Role

We're looking for a Senior Front End Engineer to own and evolve the DoczyAI platform — an enterprise AI-powered document processing and analysis application built on Next.js. You'll work across two front end codebases (the main user-facing app and collaborate closely with the backend team on a Go-based query orchestration service that drives the document processing pipeline.  

You'll be expected to understand the full system well enough to debug across layers — from a broken Zustand store to a misconfigured SQS queue response showing up wrong in the UI 

Work You’ll Do

• Building and maintaining UI features across the main app. 

• Maintaining and extending the service layer (`AUTH Service`, `Document Service`, `Query Service`, `Field Extraction Service`, `Client Service`, etc.) 

• Implementing and debugging authentication flows — AWS Cognito sessions, JWT handling, Azure MSAL SSO 

• Managing state correctly across Zustand stores and keeping them in sync with backend state 

• Collaborating on OpenAI spec changes that affect the front end 

• Writing and maintaining Jest unit tests and Playwright integration tests 

• Supporting multi-environment Docker deployments (dev / UAT / prod) 

• Working within a multi-client, permission-scoped data model  

• Other duties as assigned 

Requirements

• 5+ years building production React applications (Next.js strongly preferred) 

• Strong TypeScript 

• Confident with state management patterns; Zustand experience is a plus 

• Experience integrating with REST APIs and understanding OpenAPI specs 

• Familiarity with AWS Cognito or similar identity providers (OAuth2 / OIDC flows) 

• Solid testing habits like Jest, React Testing Library, ideally some E2E experience 

• Docker comfort able to run and debug containerized local environments

Preferred Requirements

• Experience with enterprise document workflows or data-heavy dashboards 

• Familiarity with PowerBI embedded or similar BI embedding 

• Socket.io or WebSocket real-time UI experience 

• Exposure to MUI and/or Tailwind CSS in the same codebase 

• Experience working against event-driven backends (SQS, Kafka, etc.) 

• Ability to read Go code at a basic level — enough to understand what an endpoint does 

Nice to Have: 

• AWS experience beyond Cognito (S3, SQS, Textract) 

• i18n / multi-language support implementation 

• CI/CD pipeline work (Bitbucket Pipelines, GitHub Actions) 

Benefits

• Flexible Paid Time Off of up to 23 days annually, in addition to 10 paid public holidays
• Hybrid work model with flexible in-office attendance
• Comprehensive health benefits including medical insurance (Mediclaim), personal accident insurance, and term life insurance
• Generous paid parental leave program
• Attractive employee referral bonus scheme
• Transportation allowance and night shift allowance
• Employee advance salary loan facility
• Structured professional certification reimbursement policy to support ongoing learning and development
