Senior Frontend Software Engineer (m/f/d)

Trackunit is looking for an engaged Senior Frontend Software Engineer (Parental Leave Cover) to join our Engineering team. This 18‑month role covers a parent’s leave and you will work across our active hubs in Denmark and Berlin or remotely within those countries.

As a Senior Frontend Software Engineer you will work alongside a core group of 200+ engineers, building practical products used by 10,000+ active users and 1,25M+ IoT devices daily.

What’s in it for you?

You will join our experienced UI enablement team dedicated developing our core SDK, design system and supporting the frontend platform for the other teams in Trackunit.
A place in an agile growth SaaS business with possibilities to grow internally in the company.
International environment with regular check‑ins and social events across teams, departments and borders.
We take your personal and professional development goals seriously and we support them through training, coaching and mindfulness as well as with an open feedback culture to enable you to identify your strengths and opportunities. We do this by touching upon your impact on our triple focus: impacting yourself, impacting teams/relations and impacting the organisation/strategy.
Flexibility and hybrid working is not just a cliché to us or something we state in a job posting. We do offer you a flexible setup and believe that you best can structure how your routines look like. And once you have chosen how you work best, let us know what you need: We got you covered with the IT equipment you need for your work.
Turning the Tide. At Trackunit, we are aiming to create and contribute to an inclusive workplace. And this effort starts with our hiring – we do not discriminate on the basis of gender identity, sexual orientation, personal expression, ethnicity, religious belief or disability status. We only assess candidates on their qualifications and merit. Learn more about TIDE and other DE&I initiatives here.

Who are you in an ideal scenario?

You are an advocate for platform thinking and design system excellence – passionate about building tools, SDKs and component libraries that empower product teams to move faster and deliver consistent, high‑quality experiences.
You bring deep software engineering expertise and a strong grasp of the full software development lifecycle – from architecture and design through implementation, testing, deployment and continuous improvement.
You are fluent in the modern JavaScript ecosystem and stay current with evolving technologies. You have hands‑on experience with frameworks and tools such as TypeScript, React, Node.js, Nx and GraphQL, and you know how to apply them effectively in scalable frontend architectures.
You prioritise reliability and maintainability by investing in automated testing, ensuring that our design system and SDKs can evolve safely under continuous delivery.
You communicate clearly and effectively across disciplines, translating technical concepts for designers, engineers and product stakeholders alike.
You take pride in mentoring and elevating others – sharing knowledge, reviewing code thoughtfully and fostering a culture of quality and collaboration.
You champion clean, well‑structured, and well‑documented code, recognising that readability and consistency are key to enabling teams at scale.
You proactively explore new approaches and technologies to improve developer experience and take ownership in driving them from concept to adoption.
You have a strong appreciation for UI and UX principles and understand how design and engineering intersect to create cohesive, accessible, and delightful user experiences.

Every day is different, but you can expect to:

Drive the development and continuous improvement of our design system and SDK, enabling teams to deliver consistent, high‑quality user experiences across products.
Collaborate closely with designers to translate design principles into scalable, reusable UI components and patterns that enhance usability and developer productivity.
Partner with Product Managers, Engineering Leads and cross‑functional teams to define and deliver solutions that improve developer experience and accelerate feature delivery.
Take ownership of core platform features and strategic initiatives that shape how our frontend ecosystem evolves.
Perform in‑depth code reviews, ensuring high standards for maintainability, accessibility and performance, while fostering a culture of technical excellence.
Mentor and support other frontend engineers, helping them grow in design system architecture, SDK development and frontend best practices.
Lead technical demos and share key learnings to drive adoption and gather feedback from partner teams.
Contribute actively to our frontend community by sharing knowledge, presenting at internal forums and promoting alignment across teams.
Stay ahead of industry trends in frontend engineering and developer tooling, identifying opportunities to refine our frameworks, processes and technologies.
