SeniorSoftwareEngineer

Are you ready to unlock intelligence? If you don’t think you meet all of the criteria below but are still interested in the job, please apply. Nobody checks every box - we’re looking for candidates that are particularly strong in a few areas, and have some interest and capabilities in others. THE MISSION Volcano is Kong's most forward-leaning product team — building the infrastructure layer for the agentic era from first principles. We are looking for somebody who can ship a front-end: someone to own the UI layer entirely, so the team can move faster across the full stack. You will build the visual systems that make agent workflows, API log views, and LLM-driven developer tooling feel as precise as the infrastructure underneath them.     WHAT YOU'LL DO - Own the entire front-end surface of Volcano — from architecture decisions to the last pixel of a data visualisation — operating as the sole UI authority on the team - Build log views, chart components, table interfaces, and graph-based agent workflow visualisations that are both technically precise and visually intentional - Architect front-end systems within a Next.js monorepo that are performant, maintainable, and designed with the full-stack context in mind — not in isolation from it - Drive collaborative pair design sessions with Mark and the broader Volcano team, iterating quickly and without attachment to prior work when product direction shifts - Integrate with backend services built in Go — understanding auth flows, API contracts, and where the UI layer fits within the broader system architecture - Contribute to the upcoming LLM-driven code generation and deployment flow, building web-based text editors, chat interfaces, and dynamic graph visualisations for agent orchestration - Participate in PR reviews via GitHub, contributing to technical rigour and code quality across the Volcano codebase   WHAT YOU'LL BRING THE TOOLKIT - 5+ years of production front-end engineering experience, with a demonstrable track
