Senior Software Engineer (Frontend), UI Platform (Remote)

The name ThousandEyes was born from two big ideas: the power to see what’s not ordinarily possible, and the ability to collect intelligence from vantage points as diverse and global as the Internet. As organizations depend on cloud services, the Internet has become their defacto network connecting cloud applications to users. Our Internet and cloud intelligence platform is like a ‘Google maps of the Internet’, providing the only collectively powered view of digital experiences end-to-end. We enable our customers made up of the world’s largest and fastest-growing brands, to identify problems before they impact revenue, brand reputation, or employee productivity.

In August 2020, Cisco Systems completed the acquisition of ThousandEyes, which now forms the ThousandEyes Business Unit within Cisco’s Network Services Business Group, and is a foundational component of Cisco’s growing Observability business.

The UI Platform team is passionate about building common abstractions that are shared by the various ThousandEyes development teams. Our mission is to evangelize standards, patterns, and best practices for UI design and development at ThousandEyes. We support a shared Design System used by developers, designers, and product managers to maximize the ease, quality, consistency, and velocity of design and development across all ThousandEyes products. We also build new initiatives that allow a smooth onboarding experience for new customers and opportunities for them to engage more deeply with new parts of our platform. We’re experts in frontend code, implementing pixel-perfect designs, and creating the best possible developer and customer experiences with everything we touch.
