Senior UI/UX Engineer

Genesis10 is currently seeking a Senior UI/UX Engineer for a contract position with a Global Financial Institution located in Charlotte, NC, Chandler, AZ, Minneapolis, MN or Iselin, NJ. This is a 12+ month contract opportunity.

We are seeking a Senior UI/UX Engineer to design and build advanced, production-grade web interfaces for internal and enterprise-facing AI security platforms and related research and risk analysis systems. This role sits at the intersection of UX design, frontend engineering, and AI system observability. You will be responsible for translating complex backend reasoning, evidence graphs, and multi-stage AI workflows into clear, intuitive, and scalable user experiences without oversimplifying the underlying technical truth.

Responsibilities:
Design and implement web applications that visualize AI system architectures, present multi-step assessment workflows, and render large, dynamic graphs
Expose epistemic states (factual vs declared vs conceptual) clearly to users
Support human-in-the-loop audit workflows, overrides, and immutable decision trails
Scale from early wireframes to enterprise-grade platforms used by security architects and risk teams
Design end-to-end workflows for complex AI analysis tools
Translate abstract system concepts into clear visual metaphors and define UI patterns
Create wireframes, interaction specs, and component behavior definitions
Build production UIs using TypeScript with modern frontend frameworks
Implement high-performance graph visualizations (canvas/WebGL based)
Integrate frontend applications with Flask and FastAPI based backends
Consume REST and WebSocket APIs for real-time progress updates and ensure UI state consistency
Design interfaces that do not misrepresent system state or capability, surfacing contradictions and ambiguity explicitly
Collaborate closely with backend engineers, AI/ML engineers, and security architects
Requirements:

5+ years of Software Engineering experience, or equivalent demonstrated through one or a combination of the following: work or consulting experience, training, military experience, education
Strong experience with TypeScript
Experience with one or more modern frontend frameworks (React, Next.js, Remix, SvelteKit, etc.)
Strong CSS and layout fundamentals for complex dashboards
Experience building data-dense, interaction-heavy UIs
Comfortable integrating with Flask and FastAPI backends
Experience consuming REST APIs and WebSockets
Understanding of async workflows and long-running backend jobs
Experience with graph or diagram rendering libraries (e.g., Cytoscape.js, React Flow, D3, Sigma.js, or similar)
Understanding of when to use Canvas/WebGL vs DOM
Experience handling UI performance constraints at scale (virtualization, progressive loading, aggregation)
Proven experience designing technical products (developer tools, internal platforms, security tooling, AI systems)
Ability to reason about user cognition when presented with uncertainty, conflict, or incomplete data
Strong visual hierarchy and information architecture skills
Comfort designing for expert users, not just casual users
Desired skills:

Experience designing interfaces for security tooling, compliance or audit systems, or AI/ML platforms
Familiarity with graph theory concepts, AI pipelines (RAG, agents, embeddings), or IaC/cloud architecture diagrams
Background as a frontend engineer who evolved into UX, or a UX designer who codes deeply
Pay range:

$59.53 - $67.53 per hour
