Sr. Software Engineer - Frontend

About Parkade

At Parkade, we're transforming how private parking works — creating a world where every spot can be reserved and shared at the push of a button. Hundreds of buildings already use Parkade to manage parking, and we’ve only scratched the surface of a $5B market.

We’re now scaling to bring Parkade to every apartment, condo, and office building in the U.S., and we’re looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer who thrives on ownership, product impact, and solving complex problems with elegant solutions.

We are ideally hiring for hybrid, in-office 2 / 3x per week at our San Francisco (Mission) HQ. We are open to remote for the right match.

What You’ll Do

You’ll join a small, senior team improving how buildings and cities use space — starting with parking. Your work will directly shape how our customers and internal teams experience Parkade’s products.

In this role, you will :

Build and maintain high-quality web applications using React and TypeScript , with a focus on performance, scalability, and clean architecture.

Lead front-end architectural decisions — including component design, shared libraries, and multi-project repo organization.

Collaborate with Product, Design, and Backend Engineering to build intuitive, accessible user experiences across internal and external products.

Take ownership of major projects like our Admin App , used internally by Parkade employees.

Improve tools used by property managers and public-facing features that impact real customers.

Shape front-end standards, tooling, and deployment practices (e.g., CI / CD, testing frameworks, code reviews).

What We’re Looking For

5+ years of professional front-end experience — ideally in TypeScript + React web apps (not CMS or marketing sites).

A proven ability to design, build, and scale complex products — ideally B2C or multi-audience systems.

Experience working in startup or enterprise environments with high ownership and fast iteration.

Familiarity with shared component systems, design systems, and monorepo / multi-repo setups.

Comfort making architectural tradeoffs and implementing long-term solutions that balance speed and maintainability.

Strong communication skills — able to collaborate as a peer across Engineering, Product, and Design.

(Bonus) Experience with Python or backend services, and deploying to AWS or Google Cloud.

(Bonus) You’ve built something from the ground up — whether a startup, open-source project, or internal platform.

What You’ll Work On First

Your first focus will be modernizing and improving our internal Admin App , a mission-critical internal tool. You’ll quickly move into broader feature development across our property manager and public-facing web products.

Our Ideal Candidate

You might be a great fit if you :

Have a technical co-founder or “startup builder” background.

Enjoy owning projects end-to-end and collaborating directly with peers.

Take pride in building consistent, high-quality user interfaces that scale.

Are motivated by impact — both in product quality and the tangible improvement of how cities use space.
