At Actionable.co, we’re transforming how Learning & Development initiatives create lasting, measurable behavior change. Our platform empowers Consultants and Professionals in the Training, Leadership Development, Learning and Culture Change space to demonstrate measurable impact through our tech-enabled change methodology.

We’re looking for a UX-obsessed front-end engineer who can turn complex analytics and participant workflows into intuitive, high-impact user experiences. This role starts with full ownership of front-end development with a potential path to product leadership for someone who wants to grow beyond pure engineering.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

Enhance the Analytics Experience

Own the front-end development of our interactive, flexible, analytics solution delivering high-performance dashboards and data visualizations for our users and their stakeholders.
Design analytics experiences that are easy to use, trustworthy, and executive-ready, translating complex data into actionable insight.
Ensure consistency and reliability across reporting, permissions, and role-based views.

Own the End User Experience

Modernize and streamline onboarding, authentication, and core workflows.
Design intuitive, accessible, and motivating user flows that encourage consistent adoption and engagement.
Ensure performance, responsiveness, and accessibility across devices and operating systems.

Collaborate Across the Stack

Work closely with back-end engineers integrating MySQL, Python services, and Laravel/PHP APIs.
Improve performance and reliability across all user-facing experiences.
Help evolve our design system and front-end standards.

Drive Product from Concept to Delivery

Partner with Client Success and Engineering to turn ideas into clear scopes, user stories, and technical plans.
Identify MVPs, make smart tradeoffs, and prioritize what delivers the most user value.
Act as a bridge between design, engineering, and product—bringing clarity to ambiguity.
Own features from discovery through delivery and iteration.

Grow Into Product Leadership (Optional Path)

Act as a feature owner and product partner.
Contribute to roadmap discussions and discovery.
Mentor others and influence technical and product direction.
Progress toward a Product Lead / Product Manager role, if desired.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

Core Front-End Experience

Strong experience building complex applications with both Vue.js and React.
Confident working with CSS frameworks (we use Bootstrap and Tailwind).
Experience building client-facing, executive-ready analytics dashboards.
Hands-on experience with Highcharts or similar visualization libraries.
Experience integrating with REST APIs and backend systems.
Experience building multi-lingual interfaces.
Experience measuring and improving front-end performance (CI/CD or browser-based testing).
Experience using AI-assisted development tools (e.g., code assistants, design tools, testing or documentation aids) to improve development speed and quality.
Strong judgment in reviewing, refining, and validating AI-generated output.
Comfort integrating new tools into daily workflows while maintaining high engineering standards.

UX & Design Strength

Strong UX judgment and superior attention to detail.
Experience translating designs into polished, production-ready interfaces.
Comfortable creating wire frames in Figma or similar tools.
Experience contributing to design systems.
Familiarity with UX analytics tools (e.g., PostHog).
Knowledge of accessibility and responsive design best practices (WCAG 2.2 AA).

Prioritization & Collaboration Skills

Product-minded approach: from problem definition to shipped solution.
Comfortable working with ambiguity and evolving requirements.
Experience prioritizing and scoping work strategically.
Effective, professional English communication skills and ability to explain reasoning and decisions clearly.
Ability to collaborate and work flexibly with North American teams and time zones.

Backend & Platform Awareness

Experience working with MySQL-backed APIs.
Familiarity with Python services and Laravel/PHP.
Experience with multi-tenant SaaS applications.
Understanding of authentication, permissions, and role-based access.

Nice to Have

Experience modernizing legacy front-end code bases.
Background in B2B analytics or workflow-driven products.
Exposure to AI/LLM integrations in production.
Interest in product management or product leadership.

WHY THIS ROLE IS DIFFERENT

You’ll have real ownership, not just tickets.
You’ll shape both UX and product direction.
You’ll help define how AI is used responsibly and effectively.
You’ll have a clear growth path beyond engineering.

Our Ideal Candidate
