Our client is seeking a Senior Platform Engineer to play a key role in transforming their digital platform. Our client is a leading provider of strategic intelligence focused on defense, energy, and political developments across the Middle East and North Africa. Their platform supports senior decision-makers in governments, defense organizations, and major institutions worldwide. This is a hands-on, high-impact position with a strong emphasis on frontend and product development, while still working across the stack. 

You will collaborate closely with product, content, and backend engineering, taking ownership of features end-to-end and contributing to technical direction as the platform evolves.

Responsibilities
  • Design and build user-facing features using React, Next.js, and TypeScript
  • Implement and integrate backend APIs and services
  • Own features from initial concept through production release
  • Improve platform performance, reliability, and long-term maintainability
  • Actively contribute to technical decisions and platform evolution
  • Review code and collaborate closely with other engineers and stakeholders
  • Help modernize the frontend and overall user experience
Qualifications

Required

  • 4+ years of professional software engineering experience
  • Strong frontend expertise with React, Next.js, and TypeScript
  • Solid backend fundamentals (Node.js, Python, or similar)
  • Comfort working across the full stack
  • Clear communication skills and a collaborative mindset
  • Proactive attitude with a desire to improve existing systems, not just maintain them

Nice to Have

  • Experience building or integrating AI-powered or LLM-based features (e.g. semantic search, recommendations, summarization, clustering)
  • Experience reviewing code or mentoring other engineers
  • Exposure to data-heavy or content-driven platforms
  • Product-oriented mindset with an eye for user experience

Why Join

  • Work on a real-world, high-impact platform used by senior decision-makers
  • Opportunity to significantly influence and reshape an existing product
  • Pragmatic engineering culture with room to grow in scope and responsibility
  • A chance to be a true change agent, not just another engineer
