Senior Front End Developer who architects REST APIs (Java/Node.js) and builds Angular-based SPA configurations. Own end-to-end integration and onboarding flows, manage CI/CD with Jenkins and Sonar, implement QA automation, and monitor production with Datadog and Splunk. Lead troubleshooting, test matrices, and release management to ensure production readiness.
Job Summary:
We are looking for a Senior Front End Developer. In this role, you will architect resilient enterprise REST APIs utilizing robust Java technologies, while simultaneously building and refining clean, intuitive frontend system configurations using Angular.
This position bridges the gap between software development, DevOps infrastructure, and rigorous end-to-end quality assurance validation. You will take complete ownership of complex integration flows, optimize automated CI/CD pipelines, ensure absolute data integrity through systematic test case execution, and monitor production reliability using advanced logging and observability suites.
Key Responsibilities
- Backend Engineering & API Design: Design, build, test, and maintain highly secure and scalable RESTful web services.
- Frontend UI & Configuration: Develop and refine clear, highly interactive web components and configuration dashboards within single-page applications using Angular, ensuring a seamless interface for handling technical settings.
- Integration & Onboarding Orchestration: Lead the technical validation and end-to-end verification of customer and vendor onboarding pipelines, ensuring absolute reliability and zero-fault data flow across integrated applications.
- Workflow & Release Management: Manage deep system configurations, handling structured workflows for API subscription lifecycles, access provisioning, and coordinated software release management across multiple runtime environments.
- DevSecOps & CI/CD Pipeline Management: Establish and optimize continuous delivery pipelines utilizing Jenkins, ensuring that strict code-coverage and automated quality gates are met via Sonar metrics before pushing changes to GitHub.
- Observability & Troubleshooting: Perform advanced debugging and root-cause analysis on highly complex system environments. Leverage logs and application performance metrics in Splunk and Datadog to proactively diagnose and resolve errors.
- Comprehensive Quality Assurance (QA): Collaborate closely with independent engineering squads to validate third-party integrations. Create detailed functional test matrices, automate critical path regression test scenarios, and manage structural defect tracking to guarantee absolute production readiness.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene
Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech
- Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
- Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
- Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
- Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
- Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
- Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
