About the role
For an advisor, the app is ToldUntold: a feed of short episodes, programs, quests and quizzes, opened between clients on the shop floor. It is built with Vue 3 and Capacitor, ships to iOS, Android and the web, updates live, keeps working offline in a stockroom, and plays HLS video without a stutter.
We are hiring a senior front-end engineer in Shenzhen to own this app, along with the parts of the back office (Vue 3, TypeScript, Vite, Tailwind) that sit closest to it. The bar is native-feeling. When a transition hesitates or a video starts late, we treat it as a bug, and someone in a store somewhere has already noticed.
What you will do
- Own the app end to end: navigation, the feed, video playback, offline mode, live updates.
- Ship one codebase to iOS, Android and the web, and know where each platform needs its own path.
- Work on the back office where it meets the app, on the previews and the tools HQ shapes the feed with.
- Chase performance where it is felt: launch, scroll, video start, transitions.
- Build closely with design and product in London, and hold the detail once designs meet real devices.
What we look for
- Deep Vue 3 and TypeScript, plus enough Capacitor or native experience to debug the layer where web meets iOS and Android.
- Consumer-grade work you can show. Feel is a requirement in this product, and you have shipped to that bar before.
- Ease with video on the web: HLS, preloading, what makes playback smooth and what quietly breaks it.
- Care for the codebase others inherit from you; you leave things simpler than you found them.
- Working Mandarin and English. Design and product sit in London, and you will talk with them every week.
Practicalities
Full-time, based in our Shenzhen office, with three days a week there as the default. The team works in Mandarin and English. Start as soon as you can.
