Senior Frontend Engineer

Aghanim is an integrated commerce, liveops automation, community engagement, and payments platform for video games.

Mobile games have traditionally depended on app stores for distribution, payments, and player relationships. We believe there is a better way. Aghanim helps game studios build direct relationships with players, sell directly, and build their future on their own terms. Today, more than 100 games worldwide are already building this future with Aghanim.

Our team brings together people across Los Angeles, New York, Seoul, Beijing, London, Lisbon, Belgrade and other locations around the globe, with deep expertise in gaming, fintech and technology. We move quickly, keep communication direct, and focus on getting things done. We believe the best people thrive when they have autonomy, ownership, and a stake in the company's success.

We’re looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer who cares deeply about performance, architecture, and building systems that scale — not just shipping UI.

This role is split across two different but complementary product areas:

• A high-load, mobile-first web platform (game hubs) where performance, SSR, and rendering strategy really matter

• A complex internal product (Game Hub Builder / CMS / Analytics) where the challenge is building powerful, flexible interfaces (editors, forms, state-heavy UIs)

You’ll work on problems that are very different from typical CRUD frontends — from optimizing Core Web Vitals under load to designing extensible UI systems and editor experiences.

If you enjoy thinking about how things render, load, scale, and evolve over time — this role is for you.

Product 1: Game Hubs (Mobile-first, SSR/Highload)

Role Responsibilities

• Build and maintain scalable, mobile-first interfaces for game hubs (web).

• Implement performance-critical rendering and design caching strategies for high-load systems.

• Build reusable UI primitives.

• Design front-end architecture, ensure observability of client-side performance, write unit/integration tests.

Required Qualifications

• 5+ years of front-end development experience.

• Strong React.

• Hands-on production experience with Next.js + SSR for high-load systems.

• TanStack experience (required).

• Strong performance optimization skills (Core Web Vitals, profiling, caching, bundle optimization).

• Experience with Tailwind CSS v4, Vite.

• Experience with React Server Components.

• Experience with Bun in runtime.

Preferred Qualifications

• Background in entertainment or gaming web-based projects.

Product 2: Game hub builders / CMS / Analytics (React)

Role Responsibilities

• Build and evolve React-based game hub builders/CMS-like interfaces (page editors, component palettes, layouts, preview).

• Implement complex forms/state management, editor UX, and reusable components:

  • Experience with build schema based forms (zod & etc)

  • Experience with BaseUI or Radix

• Ensure code quality via tests and maintainable front-end architecture.

Required Qualifications

• 5+ years of front-end development experience.

• Strong React (required).

• Solid experience with SPA development.

• Experience with routing/state management patterns, performance optimization for rich UIs.

• Experience with Tailwind CSS v4, Vite.

• Experience with TanStack React Query

What We’re Looking For

• Strong ownership of frontend architecture and performance

• Ability to design systems that scale over time

• Structured approach to solving complex UI and performance problems

• Attention to detail in both user experience and technical implementation
