About the Role
Degreed's platform reaches millions of learners worldwide — and the UI you build is how they experience it. As a Staff UI Engineer, you'll set the technical direction for a web application that needs to be accessible, scalable, and ready for what's next, including AI.
You'll work across teams, shape shared standards, and be the kind of engineer who makes everyone around them better. If you're driven by craft, ownership, and real impact at scale, this is where that energy belongs.
Key Skills
- Expert-level proficiency in modern frontend frameworks — Angular and/or React in production-scale environments.
- Hands-on experience with micro-frontend architecture and monorepo tooling (NX or equivalent).
- Deep familiarity with jQuery and other web technologies used across legacy and modern codebases.
- Experience scaling frontend practices across distributed or globally distributed engineering teams.
- Strong command of CI/CD pipelines, Git actions, and deployment workflows to CDNs.
- Familiarity with AI-assisted development tooling and willingness to pilot new approaches.
- Proven track record of driving cross-team alignment without formal authority.
- Experience building, maintaining, or governing shared component libraries at scale.
- Consistent ownership over delivery: someone who sets high standards and follows through.
- Strong mentorship instincts — invests in teammates' growth and creates space for others to do their best work.
High-accountability approach to collaboration — focused on outcomes over recognition.

Key Responsibilities
- Architect and build core UI components and application features that directly shape how millions of learners experience Degreed's platform.
- Set the technical direction for the web application — making strategic calls on frameworks, architecture, and long-term technology choices.
- Drive the AI tooling roadmap for the frontend, identifying, evaluating, and adopting tools that accelerate velocity and raise quality across the engineering org.
- Lead the development and adoption of shared component libraries, enabling product teams to move faster while maintaining consistency.
- Collaborate cross-functionally with product managers, designers, and backend engineers to deliver features with speed and quality.
- Partner with engineering leads across teams to align on architecture decisions, resolve technical dependencies, and reduce friction in delivery.
- Mentor engineers at multiple levels — providing technical guidance, code review, and career development support.
- Champion a culture of accountability, craftsmanship, and continuous improvement within and beyond the UI team.
- Contribute to hiring and technical evaluation processes, helping grow the team with the right people.
- Stay current with the evolving frontend ecosystem, proactively bringing relevant new tools, patterns, and practices to the team.
Balance speed with long-term thinking — making pragmatic decisions without accumulating technical debt that slows the platform down.
