Senior Frontend Engineer to great innovative environment

You will be a key part of building the next iteration of WhiteAway Group’s webshops to be the most performant and scalable webshops in Denmark.

For our client WhiteAway Group, we are looking for an experienced Senior Frontend Engineer to their tech team in Aarhus. They are converting the ageing systems to a stack based on React, NextJS and NodeJS – all hosted in AWS.

WhiteAway Group sells and ships household appliances to customers across Scandinavia, with a continued focus on great customer experiences. Since the beginning, the company has taken a fresh approach to the market with a strong digital mindset. This has resulted in strong growth – and they continue to have ambitious goals.

Your team
You’ll join WhiteAway Group’s Tech Development department, reporting to the Director of Tech Development. The tech team consists of 40 colleagues, including 20 engineers distributed across 6 autonomous squads. Each squad is cross-functional, working closely with UX designers, data scientists and software architects to own and drive missions.

The team is truly passionate about building the right solutions – always focused on what is best for the business. They invest in their craft through training, professional sparring via pair programming and regular hackathons. The team works in a hypothesis-driven way: they test, adapt and find better ways to build great software. Engineers are empowered to make decisions within their squads.

The job is about

• Building high-performance frontends using React, Next.js, and TypeScript
• Participating in system architecture and design discussions
• Using hypothesis-driven development to determine how to achieve the best outcomes and fulfil the squad’s mission
• Deploying daily using a modern CI/CD pipeline, leveraging both Vercel for frontend delivery and AWS for backend infrastructure and services
• Mentoring junior engineers and leading by example
• Contributing to the design system and exploring micro-frontend architecture

Your background
You likely have hands-on experience with the following technologies and responsibilities:

• Deep expertise in React and building modern, modular and maintainable UIs
• Solid experience with Next.js and a good understanding of server-side rendering and full-stack React development
• Proficiency in TypeScript and using strong typing to improve code quality and developer experience
• A natural ability to coach and mentor junior developers
• Confidence in leading larger frontend projects and taking ownership of both features and the metrics they drive

Bonus points if you also have experience with:

• Building and maintaining design systems or micro frontends
• AWS/Vercel, CI/CD pipelines (e.g. CircleCI), or cloud-native development
• End-to-end testing with tools like Playwright or Cypress

WhiteAway Group offers
You will become part of an amazing workplace in a dynamic and international environment. There is room to explore new ideas and grow both professionally and personally. WhiteAway Group has a flat and informal structure with a high degree of independence and short decision-making paths. You will work with modern agile methodologies, including Spotify-inspired squads – and be encouraged to participate in hackathons and continuous learning.
