Lead Frontend Developer

Future Mind is a brilliant, inspiring team, one of the most awarded tech consulting companies in the region. We value proactive professionals who enjoy solving problems, sharing knowledge, and teamwork. Together we create high-quality solutions that fulfill the business needs of our clients and impact the lives of their customers every day. 

We all strive for continuous professional development with the active support of experienced mentors and team leaders along a well-structured professional development path – we all keep learning. In our frequent internal tech meetups, we share knowledge, discuss technical and business issues, and find solutions, and when you want to take an external course, participate in a conference, or go to a meetup, we provide relevant funding.

As a team, we have received several industry awards for delivering some of the best eCommerce applications in Poland, listed among the most popular applications in app stores. Our expert engineers, designers, project managers, and analysts work on projects ranging from top mobile commerce apps used daily by millions of customers to IoT experiments.

Are you an experienced Frontend Leader ready to build high-performing web products and grow a strong engineering team? At Future Mind, part of the Solita family, we're looking for a Lead Frontend Developer to drive technical excellence across our Next.js and React projects, and to play an active role in shaping new business with our clients. This role is perfect for someone who thrives at the intersection of code, people, and commercial strategy - someone who can lead a team, talk to clients with confidence, and help us scope and win the right projects.

This job is all about:

• Lead a Frontend sub-team: support your team's growth, set clear technical directions, and foster an environment where developers can truly excel.

• Mentor developers: guide less experienced team members through code reviews, 1:1s, and career conversations - helping them take ownership and advance.

• Lead end-to-end frontend delivery: drive projects from technical discovery to production.

• Ensure engineering excellence: guarantee our products are fast, accessible (WCAG-compliant), and SEO-friendly across modern frameworks like Next.js.

• Support the sales process: estimate new projects, join pre-sales calls.

• Partner with clients: act as a trusted technical advisor - running discovery sessions, presenting solutions, and managing expectations throughout delivery.

• Bridge engineering and business: make informed decisions that balance technical quality, user needs, and commercial outcomes.

• Shape our frontend practices: continuously improve our team's processes, tools, and engineering standards.

Here's what we're looking for:

• Proven experience leading frontend developers: you have a track record of mentoring, giving effective feedback, and supporting individual growth.

• Strong expertise in Next.js or comparable React-based frameworks: especially in production, client-facing web applications.

• Solid grasp of SEO and accessibility: Core Web Vitals, SSR/SSG strategies, structured data, and WCAG 2.1 standards are part of how you think about quality.

• Experience in project estimation and scoping: you can break down requirements, identify risks, and produce reliable timelines.

• Comfort with the sales process: participating in pre-sales calls, technical discovery, and proposal preparation feels natural to you.

• Excellent client communication skills: English at C1 level, with a knack for aligning people, business, and technology.

• A blend of hands-on engineering mindset and leadership maturity, combined with a strong team-first attitude.

It's great if you also have:

• general familiarity with React Native - useful for cross-platform conversations with clients, but not a deal-breaker.

...and here's what we offer:

• a non-corporate, transparent work environment where everyone has their say,

• frequently reviewed salary, relevant to market rates, your developing skills, and the results you achieve,

• possibility to significantly impact your projects – your input has real value,

• continuous professional development and application of new technologies, with the active support of experienced mentors and team leaders along a well-structured professional development path – we all keep learning,

• frequent internal tech meetups where we learn, share knowledge, discuss issues and find solutions together, 

• financial support for professional development, when you want to take an external course, take part in a conference, or go to a meetup

• work-life integration and balance, with truly flexible working hours, 

• the ability to work fully or partially remotely or check into one of our offices whenever you like,

• fully paid private health insurance, subsidized sports membership, mental health support, and language courses,

• free breakfast, snacks, and drinks at the office, along with a chill-out space, a foosball table, and some gaming gear at our Warsaw office for when you need to relax and charge your batteries,

• a laptop with the operating system of your choice (Mac/PC/Linux) and an additional, good-quality monitor,

• frequent team and company retreats, RPG sessions, chess tournaments, annual sailing trips to Masurian Lakes, holiday events, and more.
