The Client Platform organization provides the paved path for building, testing, and releasing Postman’s web and desktop applications. We own frameworks, design systems, SDKs, build tooling, and shared infrastructure that product engineers depend on every day. The UI Platform group focuses on creating reliable, accessible, and performant UI foundations used across Postman.
As a Senior Software Engineer on the Client Platform team, you’ll help shape the front-end foundations that Postman relies on. This includes the design system and the reusable components that power both web and desktop experiences. Your work will influence how hundreds of engineers build, improving consistency, performance, and the overall developer experience.
This is a hands-on role. You’ll build components, help define UI architecture, and partner with engineers and designers to turn ideas into scalable UI systems. In practice, you’ll push the UX layer forward, enabling teams to ship high-quality features without reinventing core patterns.
Implement specialized UI components where needed (e.g., editors, grids, structured data components) with a focus on performance and usability.
Ensure components support accessibility, keyboard interaction patterns, and internationalization/localization standards.
Support product teams in adopting UI Platform components and patterns, providing guidance and identifying opportunities to simplify or extend the platform.
Contribute to documentation, developer tooling, and internal processes that make it easier to build high-quality UI consistently.
Identify UI-related technical debt or architectural gaps and proactively drive improvements.
Mentor other engineers, participate in design reviews, and influence technical decision-making.
You enjoy creating clean, scalable components and UI patterns that others depend on.
You think beyond features and consider how systems evolve. You take ownership of problems, not solutions.
You communicate clearly and listen effectively. You seek new perspectives and build trust with your team and colleagues.
You care about performance, reliability, and the little things that make interfaces feel polished.
Your Experience
6+ years building UI for complex web applications.
Deep understanding of JavaScript/TypeScript and React.
Experience creating and maintaining reusable component libraries or design systems.
Strong knowledge of UI performance, including rendering costs, bundling, and responsive interaction patterns.
Familiarity with accessibility and internationalization principles.
Experience improving developer experience through process, documentation, and/or tooling.
Able to independently lead medium-to-large technical projects and contribute thoughtfully to team-level architectural decisions.
The reasonably estimated base salary for this role ranges from $220,000 to $240,000, plus a competitive equity package. Actual compensation is based on the candidate's skills, qualifications, and experience.
In addition to Postman's pay-on-performance philosophy, and a flexible schedule working with a fun, collaborative team, Postman offers a comprehensive set of benefits, including full medical coverage, flexible PTO, wellness reimbursement, and a monthly lunch stipend. Along with that, our wellness programs will help you stay in the best of your physical and mental health. Our frequent and fascinating team-building events will keep you connected, while our donation-matching program can support the causes you care about. We’re building a long-term company with an inclusive culture where everyone can be the best version of themselves.
At Postman, we embrace a hybrid work model. For all roles based out of San Francisco Bay Area, Boston, Bangalore, Hyderabad, London, and New York, employees are expected to come into the office 3-days a week. We were thoughtful in our approach which is based on balancing flexibility and collaboration and grounded in feedback from our workforce, leadership team, and peers. The benefits of our hybrid office model will be shared knowledge, brainstorming sessions, communication, and building trust in-person that cannot be replicated via zoom.
At Postman, we create with the same curiosity that we see in our users. We value transparency and honest communication about not only successes, but also failures. In our work, we focus on specific goals that add up to a larger vision. Our inclusive work culture ensures that everyone is valued equally as important pieces of our final product. We are dedicated to delivering the best products we can.
