We Elevate. Digitally.
SQLI is a European player in customer experience and digital transformation. We help major international brands create value through technology and digital innovation.
From strategy to implementation, we design and build robust digital platforms, scalable architectures and engaging customer experiences by combining advanced technology with deep technical expertise.
To strengthen our teams of 2,200 employees across 12 countries, we are looking for driven people who share our values: Creativity, Engagement and a Future-minded approach.
SQLI Ghent creative agency; that’s us: more than 50 digital specialists working every day on projects that truly matter. As part of an international group, we combine the scale and expertise of a large digital agency with the commitment and agility of a close local team.
Our clients increasingly rely on composable, headless and API-first front-end solutions, with AI becoming an important part of how these platforms are designed and delivered.
That is why we are looking for a Lead Front-end Architect.
This role is for someone who has outgrown the traditional senior developer label. Someone people turn to when the technical challenges become difficult and important decisions need to be made.
That’s where you come in.
This position is only open to candidates who will be employed directly by us. We do not work with contractors or agencies for this role.
As Lead Front-end Architect, you are the technical authority for front-end development across your projects.
You define the architecture, guide the technical delivery and make sure the final solution meets the client’s expectations, from the first pre-sales conversation through to production.
You will work primarily on one client project while also contributing to architecture, innovation, pre-sales and coaching across SQLI. We intentionally combine hands-on project work with enough room for technical leadership.
Writing code will remain an important part of your day. You will not be designing architectures from the sidelines. You will help build them.
