Key Responsibilities
Frontend Architecture & Engineering
Lead the design and evolution of Angular application architecture — module federation, standalone components, lazy loading, and state management patterns
Own and extend the shared component library and design system built with Angular Material and custom SCSS tokens
Define coding standards, review guidelines, and architectural decision records (ADRs) for the frontend chapter
Drive migration and upgrade paths across major Angular versions with minimal disruption to delivery squads
Evaluate and introduce new Angular features (Signals, Deferrable Views, SSR with Angular Universal) where they bring clear benefit
E-Banking Feature Development
Implement complex banking features: payment flows, account overviews, transaction history, document centre, and secure messaging
Build secure authentication and session management UIs integrating with OAuth2 / OpenID Connect and MFA flows
Develop and maintain multilingual (DE/FR/IT/EN) interfaces using Angular i18n and ngx-translate, respecting Swiss linguistic and formatting conventions
Collaborate with backend teams to design and consume RESTful and GraphQL APIs with strong typing (OpenAPI codegen, Apollo)
Ensure pixel-perfect implementation of UX designs from Figma, maintaining consistency across breakpoints and devices
Performance & Quality
Profile and optimise Angular application performance: bundle size, Core Web Vitals, change detection strategy, virtual scrolling
Write comprehensive unit tests (Jest / Jasmine / Karma) and integration tests; contribute to E2E test suites (Cypress / Playwright)
Enforce accessibility standards (WCAG 2.1 AA) across all components, supporting screen readers and keyboard navigation
Conduct thorough code reviews and contribute to a culture of quality and continuous improvement
Security & Compliance
Apply OWASP Top 10 mitigations in frontend code: XSS prevention, CSP headers, secure cookie handling, and CSRF protection
Implement Content Security Policies, Subresource Integrity, and other hardening measures required in a banking context
Support security audits and penetration testing remediation cycles
Maintain awareness of FINMA digital banking guidelines as they apply to frontend data handling and user consent
Your profile
Must-Haves
3+ years of professional frontend development with Angular (v12 or later)
Strong TypeScript skills — you write strict, well-typed code and understand the Angular compiler
Expert-level RxJS knowledge: you design reactive data flows and handle complex async scenarios confidently
Experience building and maintaining large-scale, production Angular applications (not just greenfield projects)
Solid understanding of web security fundamentals relevant to frontend: XSS, CSRF, CSP, secure authentication
Experience with NgRx or equivalent state management in non-trivial applications
Strong sense of UI quality: accessibility, cross-browser compatibility, responsive design, and performance
Collaborative mindset with demonstrated experience mentoring or leading frontend engineers
Strong Plus
Experience in financial services, banking, or another security-sensitive regulated industry
Familiarity with micro-frontend architecture (module federation, single-spa)
Hands-on experience with Nx monorepo tooling for multi-app/multi-lib workspaces
Contributions to open-source Angular projects or internal design systems
Knowledge of Angular Universal (SSR) or static pre-rendering for web banking performance
Experience integrating Angular apps with OAuth2/OIDC providers (Keycloak, Azure AD B2C)

German: Fluent (B2+) — primary working language for team communication and documentation
English: Business proficient — Angular ecosystem, tooling, and international collaboration
French or Italian: Advantageous for our multilingual (DE/FR/IT/EN) e-banking product context
