Senior R&D Engineer

When visionary companies need to know how their world-changing ideas will perform, they close the gap between design and reality with Ansys simulation. For more than 50 years, Ansys software has enabled innovators across industries to push boundaries by using the predictive power of simulation.

We are looking for a Senior Angular Developer to join our development team responsible for building and maintaining Ansys Web Components—our internal component library. This shared UI library is used across the organization to streamline development, ensure consistency, and align with the Ansys Design System in terms of User Experience, Design, and Accessibility. This role would be great for an experienced senior looking for a new and interesting challenge or a mid-level developer who feels ready to take the next step in their career.

As a Senior Angular Developer, you will have the unique opportunity to work on enablement software, helping internal product teams:

• Build applications quickly and efficiently.
• Maintain consistency with the Ansys Design System.

Our component library includes both simple components (e.g., buttons, avatars, icons) and complex components (e.g., tables, trees). Our mission is to ensure all components meet the following standards:

• Well-documented.
• Easy to use and configure.
• Accessible.
• Performant and efficient.
• Maintainable with automated tests.

Responsibilities

• Participate in Agile practices (Scrum, planning poker, retrospectives).
• Contribute to the day-to-day development of the component library.
• Engage in architectural discussions and implementation.
• Conduct code reviews to ensure quality.
• Gather and refine requirements for new components and features.

Requirements

• 5 years of relevant experience (front end development).

We are interested in speaking with experienced front-end developers who are passionate about working in a collaborative environment. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys building high-quality, scalable UI components and improving developer experience across an organization. The right candidate might get excited about some of the following:

• Advanced knowledge of modern Angular (we use Angular 17+).
• Experience architecting and building reusable UI components (Component-Driven Development, Atomic Design Methodology).
• Understanding of automating repetitive tasks (we use GitHub Actions).
• Strong background in test automation (we use Jest and Cypress).
• Familiarity with quality development practices (TDD, BDD, CI/CD).
• Experience with Web Components or React is a plus.
• Proficiency with SASS for styling.

What we offer

• Remote working opportunities.
• The chance to work on a high-impact enablement project.
