Software Engineer, Frontend (Lisbon)

Job Description

Position Overview

The Platform Team focuses on enterprise usability, hybrid cloud solutions, and strategic integrations empowering our customers to achieve their goals. We believe that enterprise software doesn't need to be purely functional or boring; our investment in interaction and design will pay dividends down the road. Every engineer on the team shares a passion for providing a world-class user experience via a data-driven development process. We believe in helping our customers adopt a cloud strategy which avoids lock-in and doesn't compromise on security. Last but not least, we realize that some customers need us to work with solutions they already have, and that building integrations with third-party tools may be the best path to customer success.

As a Frontend Engineer, you will be working on the user interfaces that our customers use to install, monitor and interact with their MemSQL clusters. Your role will include working on our visual Component Library, building and owning entire frontend features and implementing data visualization tools. The MemSQL database is renowned for its breakthrough performance, so our user interfaces have to follow suit. For this reason, our frontend engineering team has to consider performance at every step of our development process.
