# **About Lago**
At Lago, we're on a mission to make billing simpler, more transparent, and more adaptable for SaaS companies. As the leading open-source billing platform, we empower businesses to build flexible pricing models and scale with confidence. We've raised over **$22 million in funding** from top-tier investors including **Y Combinator** and **FirstMark**, reflecting strong confidence in our vision and growth. Our platform has garnered over **9,000 stars on GitHub**, a testament to our active and growing developer community. Companies such as **PayPal**, **Synthesia** and [**Mistral.ai**](http://Mistral.ai) choose Lago for their billing. We're a team of ambitious, focused individuals who work together to solve hard problems with excellence and accountability. At Lago, we value **reliability and proactivity**—we trust each other to own tasks, drive them to completion, and adapt quickly. While we encourage you to **try fast and "fail fast"**, we also expect you to **learn fast**: make mistakes, but don't make the same one twice. If you're excited by challenges and want to grow alongside a high-performing, supportive team, this is the place for you.
# **Overview**
We're looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer to own and scale Lago's frontend application. You'll work closely with our Product and Backend Engineering teams to build and ship high-quality features, maintain our design system, and ensure the frontend is reliable, performant, and consistent at scale.
# **What You'll Be Doing**
* Own and scale Lago's frontend app — reliability, performance, and feature delivery
* Co-design and build features with the Product and Backend Engineering teams
* Maintain and enhance our design system to ensure consistency across the app
* Improve monitoring and observability for frontend issues and bugs
* Work autonomously in a fast-moving environment and lead your topics to completion
# **Who You Are**
* 5+ years of experience in frontend development
* Expert-level React skills
* Experience managing and scaling design systems in production
* Comfortable working autonomously in a fast-paced startup environment
* Proactive and ownership-driven — you lead your topics to completion without needing to be chased
* A genuine interest in open-source or developer tools is a strong plus
# **Who You're Not**
* You're not someone who needs a fully scoped spec to start moving — you're comfortable with ambiguity and make progress anyway
* You're not siloed — you collaborate actively with Product, Backend, and Design and communicate clearly across teams
* You're not satisfied with "it works" — you care about performance, observability, and long-term maintainability
* You're not just a feature builder — you take pride in the systems and patterns that make the whole frontend better
# **Requirements**
* 5+ years of professional frontend engineering experience
* Strong expertise in React
* Experience building and maintaining design systems in production environments
* Solid understanding of frontend performance, monitoring, and observability
* Strong written and verbal communication skills
* A mindset of ownership, curiosity, and continuous improvement
**Nice to have**
* Proficiency in GraphQL
* Experience contributing to or supporting open-source projects
* Familiarity with developer tools or infrastructure products
* Exposure to billing, fintech, or data-intensive frontend applications
# **Why Join Lago?**
* **Work with top-tier talent**: Join a team that values excellence, ambition, and accountability
* **Shape the future of fintech**: Be part of a fast-growing company building the best open-source billing platform
* **Remote-friendly**: Work from anywhere in Europe
