TL;DR · Software Engineering Technical Leader

As a Software Engineering Technical Leader on the Splunk UI team, you will join a frontend engineering workstream within Splunk Security to build polished, cloud-delivered web experiences. You will lead the design and delivery of accessible React and TypeScript interfaces for complex enterprise workflows while evolving scalable architecture, including micro-frontend surfaces. Your daily responsibilities involve collaborating with product, design, backend, platform, and AI teams to translate requirements into reliable user experiences, integrating shared platform capabilities, and maturing enterprise design systems. You will drive quality through unit and end-to-end testing using Jest, React Testing Library, and Playwright while mentoring engineers through technical feedback. The role requires expertise in modern JavaScript (ES6+), monorepos with pnpm or Yarn, and REST APIs to solve complex data-rich UI patterns like filtering, drill-downs, and timelines within the security domain.

What you'll do

  • Design and deliver accessible React and TypeScript experiences for complex enterprise workflows.
  • Build and evolve scalable frontend architecture including micro-frontend surfaces and shared patterns.
  • Partner with product, design, and backend teams to define user flows and resolve integration dependencies.
  • Integrate shared platform capabilities and service-backed features into cohesive user interfaces.
  • Adopt and mature enterprise design systems by utilizing reusable components over one-off solutions.
  • Ensure quality through unit/E2E testing, code reviews, performance optimization, and troubleshooting.
  • Lead technical planning, refactoring efforts, and the mentoring of other engineers through high-quality feedback.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree with 8+ years experience, Master's with 6+ years, or PhD with 3+ years of related experience.
  • 8+ years of frontend development experience building production-grade web applications and complex enterprise workflows.
  • Proficiency in React, TypeScript, and modern JavaScript (ES6+) to build maintainable frontend architecture.
  • Experience working in large-scale monorepos using package managers like pnpm or Yarn workspaces.
  • Professional experience with micro-frontend patterns, Module Federation, and scalable frontend architecture.
  • Experience with automated testing frameworks such as Jest, React Testing Library, and Playwright.
  • Strong component-driven development skills including design systems, accessibility, and responsive UI.
  • Ability to lead through code reviews, technical planning, mentoring, and cross-functional stakeholder communication.
