Lead Frontend Engineer: our view in 3 lines...

  • The Role:This role is for a lead frontend engineer building web and mobile applications for a wireless communications company.
  • The Person:The person will grow and manage a frontend engineering pod, hire and develop engineers, write code, shape architecture, and partner with Talent and Engineering leadership on team growth and technical direction.
  • Requirements:The ideal candidate is a Lead Frontend Engineer who can manage and mentor a small team while architecting and building fast, accessible, and elegant web and mobile applications.

About the role

US Mobile is building the future of wireless communication. The goal: one unified network open to any person and any device, worldwide. Connection without walls.

We’re getting there by empowering customers. All three major networks on one phone and one plan, plus home internet from Starlink. No lock-in. No commitments. Custom fit plans at every price point. 24/7 customer support with real people, empowered to help. We get real-time feedback from Reddit, surveys, and customer support informing product roadmaps and everything we do. It’s working — we’re The Wirecutter’s favorite cellular carrier, and Consumer Reports has named us the top-rated mobile carrier two years in a row.*

And we’re building innovative systems that scale. A network agnostic tech stack. Agile, cross-functional teams built on trust and mutual respect. This work isn’t for everyone. If you work fast, flexibly, and collaboratively — without compromising standards — we want to hear from you.

We’re looking for a Lead Frontend Engineer to help us build and grow our frontend team as we double our team. This is a high-impact, high-ownership role where you’ll manage and mentor a team of engineers while architecting and building fast, accessible, and elegant web and mobile applications used by over 1 million subscribers. Our challenges are both technical and strategic.

About the Role

The Lead Frontend Engineer owns the growth and output of a frontend engineering pod — hiring, developing, and managing a small team — while remaining a strong hands-on contributor and a voice in technical direction. This is a player-coach role: you’ll write code and shape architecture alongside your team, not just direct it from a distance, while also partnering with Talent to build out the team and with Engineering leadership to shape where the frontend goes next.
