About Multitude InsightsMultitude Insights builds modern tools for public safety agencies. Our flagship product, BLTN, is a real-time, AI-powered bulletin sharing platform that replaces the legacy email workflows police departments have relied on for decades.By enabling officers, analysts, and agencies to create, search, and connect bulletins in real time, we transform static information into actionable intelligence—faster, safer, and more connected.We’re a venture-backed team of engineers, public safety professionals, and veterans working closely with law enforcement partners across the country. Our mission is to give the people who keep us safe the tools they actually need.If you want to build technology that directly impacts public safety—and work on meaningful, high-stakes problems with a tight-knit, mission-driven team—this is a rare opportunity to do impactful work.The RoleWe’re looking for a Senior Front-End Engineer to help build the next generation of law enforcement technology.This is a high-ownership, hands-on role focused on shaping the frontend experience of a real-time, mission-critical platform used nationwide. You’ll own features end-to-end, help define frontend architecture, and partner closely with product, design, and backend engineering.This is not a fully-defined environment—we’re actively learning from users as we build. Success in this role requires comfort with ambiguity, strong product judgment, and the ability to make pragmatic tradeoffs and move quickly.What You’ll OwnOwn a core product area and ship meaningful features within your first 2–3 monthsHelp define and evolve frontend architecture, state management patterns, and standardsTranslate evolving user needs into intuitive, high-quality UIAct as a strong, independent frontend voice on a small teamResponsibilitiesDesign & Build: Build and maintain modern, scalable frontend applications using React and TypeScript. Translate complex, real-world workflows into clear, intuitive user experiences across highly interactive surfaces like feeds, dashboards, and alert-driven interfaces.Own the User Experience: Design fast, responsive, and accessible interfaces for real-time, notification-heavy workflows. Maintain a high bar for usability, clarity, and visual detail in mission-critical environments.AI-Native Development: Apply AI as a core part of how you build. Leverage modern AI tools (LLMs, copilots, agents) in your day-to-day development workflow to increase speed and quality. Proactively identify opportunities to incorporate AI into product features, internal tools, and user workflows. Partner with backend and product teams to shape how AI capabilities are surfaced in the frontend experience.Architect & Scale: Contribute to frontend architecture, state management patterns, and component systems. Apply best practices for clean, maintainable code while making thoughtful tradeoffs in a fast-moving environment.Collaborate Cross-Functionally: Work closely with product, design, and backend teams to deliver cohesive features. Incorporate feedback from a diverse and evolving user base—including officers, analysts, and agencies—and contribute ideas even when problems are not fully defined.Quality & Reliability: Implement testing across unit, integration, and end-to-end layers. Monitor and improve frontend performance, reliability, and observability. Ensure accessibility standards, including VPAT considerations.Leadership & Ownership: Operate with minimal oversight and contribute as a reliable, independent engineer. Conduct code reviews, help raise the frontend bar, and act as a strong partner to engineering leadership.Qualifications6+ years of frontend engineering experience building and scaling production applicationsStrong proficiency in JavaScript / TypeScript and deep experience with ReactExperience with modern state management (Redux Toolkit / RTK Query, Zustand, Tan Stack Query or similar)Strong understanding of frontend architecture, performance, accessibility, and UXExperience integrating with RESTful APIs and real-time data systemsAbility to navigate ambiguity, make tradeoffs, and iterate quicklyStrong communication and cross-functional collaboration skillsAI as a Core CompetencyHas evolved from a traditional frontend engineer into an AI-native developer, actively incorporating AI into how they build softwareMaintains a personal AI practice, using tools like LLMs, copilots, or agents in day-to-day development, debugging, and system designProactively identifies where AI can meaningfully improve product capabilities, internal workflows, or user experienceDemonstrates strong judgment on where AI should and should not be used, balancing impact with reliability, cost, and user trustComfortable building or contributing to AI-powered features and collaborating on AI-driven product decisionsNice to HaveExperience with Next.jsFamiliarity with schema validation on the frontend (Zod, Valibot)Experience with real-time systems (WebSockets, streaming data)Experience with design systems or component librariesFamiliarity with accessibility standards (VPAT)Experience in govtech, public safety, or regulated industries (healthtech, fintech)Background in B2B productsWho You AreYou’re startup-ready and comfortable operating in ambiguity. You have strong product instincts and care deeply about user experience. You take ownership, communicate clearly, and collaborate well across functions. You’re low-ego, open to being wrong, and focused on learning and improving. You write clean, thoughtful code and understand how to scale systems.You think of yourself not just as a frontend engineer, but as a modern, AI-enabled builder who is constantly looking for leverage.What Success Looks LikeYou quickly become a trusted frontend owner the team can rely onYou ship meaningful features early and consistentlyYou thoughtfully elevate frontend architecture, code quality, and UXYou act as a strong, independent partner to engineering leadershipYou introduce thoughtful, high-impact uses of AI into both the product and development workflow
