We're looking for an exceptional Senior Frontend Engineer to join our Creator Platform team within Studio. The Creator Platform is a critical part of our Studio organization, focused on building and maintaining the tools and services that help creators succeed across the entire Dailymotion ecosystem. 

As a member of this team, you'll work alongside product, design, data and other engineers on features that directly impact how creators upload, manage, monetize, and grow their content on Dailymotion. Your work will empower creators—from independent artists to major media companies—to reach their audiences and build successful channels. 

This role is ideal for engineers who thrive in ambiguity, love diving into uncharted territory, and can navigate complex systems with limited documentation. If you're energized by exploration, prefer autonomy over hand-holding, and can turn messy problems into elegant solutions—all while keeping creators' needs at the center of your work—we want to hear from you. 

What you’ll do 

• Design, build, and maintain frontend applications and user interfaces that power creator-facing features across Dailymotion 

• Work across our technology stack—primarily React, TypeScript, GraphQL, and REST APIs—building responsive, accessible web applications 

• Tackle complex technical challenges in video player integration, content management workflows, creator dashboards, and interactive user experiences 

• Make pragmatic architectural decisions, balancing technical excellence with creator needs and business objectives 

• Produce clear, comprehensive technical specifications that enable seamless collaboration across multiple engineering teams 

• Be highly responsive in your communications—answer questions promptly, provide timely updates, and keep stakeholders informed 

• Participate actively in code reviews, providing constructive feedback and learning from others 

• Write clean, maintainable, well-tested code that others can understand and build upon 

• Champion engineering best practices including testing, documentation, accessibility, performance optimization, and operational excellence 

What we’re looking for 

• 5+ years of frontend engineering experience with a proven track record of shipping production applications at scale 

• Strong proficiency in React and TypeScript (these are our primary technologies) 

• Experience with both GraphQL and REST APIs, including client-side data fetching, caching strategies, and state management 

• Comfort leveraging AI-assisted workflows for prototyping, debugging, testing, or documentation, with a clear understanding of their limitations 

• Deep understanding of frontend fundamentals: HTML, CSS, JavaScript/TypeScript, browser APIs, responsive design, and web performance 

• Strong knowledge of modern frontend architecture patterns (component design, state management, routing) 

• Understanding of web performance optimization, lazy loading, code splitting, and bundle optimization 

• Understanding of CSS methodologies and modern styling solutions (CSS Modules, Styled Components, Tailwind, or similar) 

• Experience with version control (Git), CI/CD pipelines, and modern development workflows 

• Track record of working independently and delivering results with minimal supervision 

• Experience at a product company or startup where you've had to figure things out with limited resources 

Key Differentiators 

Comfort with Ambiguity: You don't freeze when requirements are unclear—you ask clarifying questions and move forward with confidence despite uncertainty 

Exploratory Mindset: You're genuinely curious, love digging into unfamiliar codebases, and see investigation as part of the fun rather than a chore 

Autonomy & Initiative: You don't wait to be told what to do—you identify problems, propose solutions, and execute without constant check-ins 

Excellent Written Communication: You can write technical specs that are clear, comprehensive, and useful to other teams 

Responsiveness: You're reliable in your communications—teammates can count on timely responses and updates from you 

Ownership Mentality: You treat the code and systems like they're yours—you care deeply about quality, reliability, and the experience of those who come after you
