Full Job Description
đź“‹ Description
- • As a Senior Software Engineer on Kong's Volcano team, you will own the entire front-end surface of the product, shaping the UI layer for agentic-era infrastructure from architecture to pixel-perfect execution.
- • You will build log views, chart components, table interfaces, and graph-based agent workflow visualizations that are both technically precise and visually intentional, ensuring seamless integration with backend systems.
- • You will architect performant, maintainable front-end systems within a Next.js monorepo, drive collaborative design sessions, and contribute to LLM-driven tooling like code generation flows and dynamic graph UIs.
- • You will deepen your expertise in full-stack systems, AI-integrated UIs, and monorepo architecture while shipping high-impact features that define how developers interact with intelligent infrastructure.
🎯 Requirements
- • 5+ years of production front-end engineering experience with ownership of UI systems end-to-end
- • Deep, practical experience with server-side rendering (SSR) in production, preferably with Next.js
- • Proficiency in React and large-scale monorepos, including reasoning about cross-package dependencies
- • Full-stack systems fluency: ability to reason across auth, API design, and backend data flows
- • Experience building data-heavy UIs such as log views, chart systems, tables, or graph/node visualizations at a high quality bar
- • Regular use of AI/LLM tooling in day-to-day development workflow
🏖️ Benefits
- • Opportunity to own the UI layer entirely for a forward-looking product in the agentic era
- • Work on cutting-edge LLM-driven tooling including web-based editors, chat interfaces, and dynamic graph visualizations
- • Collaborative culture with pair design sessions, PR reviews, and cross-functional input as core to how work gets done
- • Exposure to Go-based backend services and infrastructure-adjacent developer tooling ecosystems
- • Impact on a product used by Fortune 500 companies and startups via Kong Konnect platform
