Frontend Engineer – Financial Data Visualization (Contract)

We’re looking for a frontend engineer who can turn complex financial outputs into clear, interactive charts, tables, and dashboards. This role starts with internal tooling and evolves toward a production-ready, customer-facing product.

You’ll work closely with our data science and engineering teams to bridge the gap between quantitative models and usable, information-dense interfaces.

What You’ll Do

• Build reusable chart and table components from structured JSON/CSV outputs produced by our data pipeline

• Develop a dashboard interface that begins as a functional scaffold and matures into a polished, production-ready application

• Collaborate with a data scientist to define output schemas that cleanly translate computation into rendering

• Connect frontend components to REST APIs, supporting both real-time and scheduled (daily) data refreshes

• Translate static, Excel-based charts and tables into interactive, web-native visualizations

Core Requirements

• React: Strong component architecture, hooks, state management, and responsive layouts

• Node.js: Comfortable building lightweight API layers or backend-for-frontend services

• PostgreSQL: Working knowledge of relational queries, including time-series data, aggregations, and joins

• Charting Libraries: Hands-on experience with one or more of the following:

Charts.js, TradingView Charts, D3, Recharts, Highcharts, Plotly, or similar

• You should be able to look at a financial chart and know how to build it

• Financial Data Familiarity: Comfort with time-series concepts such as returns, correlations, rolling windows, and economic data

• Version Control: Git / GitHub workflow

Nice to Have

• AWS experience (S3, Lambda, CloudFront)

• Prior work on fintech dashboards, trading tools, or quantitative research platforms

• A strong preference for clean, information-dense data presentation over flashy UI

Deliverables

• An interactive dashboard surfacing model outputs through charts and tables

• A reusable React component library for common financial chart types

• A clean integration layer between Python pipeline outputs and the frontend

• Clear documentation covering components, data contracts, and deployment

Engagement Details

• Contract role: 20–30 hours per week for 8–12 weeks, with potential for extension

• Remote-friendly, with preference for some overlap with U.S. time zones

• Close collaboration with our lead data scientist, principal software engineer, and platform architect
