About Ping Identity:

At Ping Identity, we believe in making digital experiences both secure and seamless for all users, without compromise. We call this digital freedom. And it's not just something we provide our customers. It's something that inspires our company. People don't come here to join a culture that's built on digital freedom. They come to cultivate it.

Our intelligent, cloud identity platform lets people shop, work, bank, and interact wherever and however they want. Without friction. Without fear.

While protecting digital identities is at the core of our technology, protecting individual identities is at the core of our culture. We champion every identity. One of our core values, Respect Individuality, reminds us to celebrate differences so you are empowered to bring your authentic self to work.

We're headquartered in Denver, Colorado and we have offices and employees around the globe. We serve the largest, most demanding enterprises worldwide, including more than half of the Fortune 100. At Ping Identity, we're changing the way people and businesses think about cybersecurity, digital experiences, and identity and access management.

We’re seeking a skilled and experienced front-end engineer to join the Neo engineering team. In this role, you’ll design and develop responsive, high-performance web applications that deliver exceptional user experiences. You’ll collaborate closely with product managers, UX designers, and backend engineers to build intuitive, user-focused interfaces and ship iteratively. Reporting to the Engineering Manager, you’ll help shape front-end architecture standards, guide technical decisions, and mentor other engineers through hands-on support and thoughtful feedback. You’ll also help ensure our UI foundations remain scalable, accessible, and maintainable as the product grows.

You Will:

Design and develop robust, scalable, and maintainable front-end solutions using modern React patterns

Collaborate with Product, UX, and Backend teams to define and implement user-centric features, including API contracts and edge-case handling

Build reusable UI components and contribute to a consistent design system (component libraries, styling conventions, documentation)

Ensure code quality through best practices: clear PRs, code reviews, automated testing, and developer-friendly documentation

Optimize applications for speed and reliability (Core Web Vitals, bundle size, rendering performance) and ensure responsive behavior across devices

Ship accessible experiences by incorporating WCAG-aligned practices into component design, interaction patterns, and QA workflows

Participate in architecture discussions and help define front-end development standards (state management, data fetching, routing, error handling)

Maintain build pipelines, including configuring tools like Vite, managing dependency upgrades, and troubleshooting CI/CD issues

Mentor and support other engineers through pairing, technical guidance, and sharing practical patterns that improve team velocity

You Have:

A Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science/Engineering or equivalent practical experience

10+ years of front-end development experience building production web applications with modern JavaScript frameworks (React)

Strong proficiency in HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, plus responsive design principles

Experience with state management and scalable front-end architecture patterns (e.g., Redux / Redux Toolkit)

Hands-on experience integrating RESTful APIs and collaborating closely with backend teams (error states, pagination, auth, caching considerations)

Solid testing and quality practices (e.g., Jest/Vitest, React Testing Library, Enzyme and end-to-end testing with Playwright or Cypress)
