Frontend Engineer (Remote)

📍 Remote 

We are looking for a Frontend Engineer with deep expertise in either React or Angular who brings more than just pure technical craftsmanship—we need someone with a strong Product Mindset and a desire to leverage AI tools to multiply their efficiency and impact.

If you excel at breaking down complex business problems, obsess over UI/UX quality, and naturally integrate modern AI tools into your daily workflow to write cleaner code faster, this is the place for you.

Who We Are

CAKE.com is a unicorn product-based company with a global presence in North America (USA), Europe (primarily in the Balkans), and Asia (Philippines). 

We build products that powers millions worldwide, including:

✅ Clockify – The world’s #1 time tracker, trusted by companies like Hewlett-Packard Enterprise, American Express, Amazon and many more.
✅ Pumble – The all-in-one team communication app.
✅ Plaky – A task management software for simple & visual project planning.

About the Position

At CAKE.com, we are evolving how we build software by becoming an AI-native engineering organization.

In this role, you won't just be converting Figma designs into components. You will actively collaborate with product managers, designers, and backend engineers to own features end-to-end, optimize user experiences, and shape scalable web architectures.

What You'll Do

• Develop, maintain, and scale high-performance frontend applications and reusable component libraries using React or Angular.

• Partner closely with product and design teams to translate business requirements into intuitive, user-centric frontend experiences.

• Actively use AI-assisted development tools to accelerate workflows, write tests, refactor code, and automate repetitive tasks.

• Benchmark and optimize web applications for maximum speed, scalability, and responsiveness across devices and browsers.

• Write clean, modular, and well-tested TypeScript code while contributing to robust CI/CD and frontend build pipelines.

Must-Haves

• 5+ years of commercial software development experience.

• 3+ years of hands-on experience with React or Angular (with deep proficiency in modern TypeScript, HTML, and CSS).

• Demonstrated ability to think beyond code—understanding user needs, product usability, and how technical decisions impact business goals.

• Experience using modern AI development tools in your everyday engineering process to enhance productivity and code quality.

• Proven track record of designing scalable frontend architectures, writing unit/integration tests, and maintaining high code standards.

• Strong understanding of RESTful APIs, modern frontend build tools (e.g., Webpack, Vite, NPM), and authorization mechanisms (e.g., JWT).

• Excellent written and spoken English skills with the ability to articulate technical concepts clearly to cross-functional teams.

Nice-to-Haves

• Experience working on large-scale web applications within organizations of 100+ engineers.

• Familiarity with both React and Angular, or willingness to work across frameworks if needed.

• Understanding of Agile methodologies, continuous integration/delivery (CI/CD), and automated end-to-end testing.

• Eye for UI/UX detail and micro-interactions.

Life at CAKE.com

• Innovative Environment – Work with top tech talent on cutting-edge products.

• Work-Life Balance – No overtime, work on weekends and no late working hours.

• B2B contractor model and generous leave credits – 22 vacation days + 10 sick days yearly.
