About this role
The application window is expected to close on: 08/14/2026 Job posting may be removed earlier if the position is filled or if a sufficient number of applications are received . This is a remote role based out of Austin, TX Meet the Team Cisco Cloud Control is Cisco's next-generation, AI-powered platform for managing, securing, and operating across the Cisco portfolio from a single place. Studio is where customers build on it — turning a prompt into a running, production-grade application, whether that's an interactive app or an autonomous agent that does work unattended, all governed, hosted, and surfaced natively inside Cloud Control. It's for everyone—engineers, non-technical builders, and AI agents—and brings together an App Builder and a bring-your-own coding-agent path, with the docs and resources to build and manage apps your own way. We're building the platform for AI app development, and Studio is the craft-defined surface on top of it. We're hiring a Frontend Technical Leader to own how that experience is engineered.
Your Impact
Lead the architectural design and end-to-end development of the Studio experience using React 18+ and TypeScript within a large-scale Nx monorepo . Drive the unification of the App Builder and BYO coding-agent paths into a single, seamless product experience. Architect the prompt-to-app loop, incorporating streaming LLM interfaces, agentic app-generation flows, and multimodal inputs. Govern the microfrontend architecture (Module Federation), enforcing boundaries, optimizing performance, and mentoring engineering teams. Establish shared frameworks, testing standards (unit, integration, E2E), and observability practices to elevate team productivity.
Minimum Qualifications
Bachelor's degree + 12 years of related experience, Master's + 8 years, or PhD + 5 years. 8+ years of professional experience building scalable web applications using React and modern JavaScript (ES6+). 5+ years of experience developing with TypeScript in a production environment. Proven experience leading technical design and implementation within a monorepo architecture (e.g., Nx , pnpm /Yarn workspaces). Demonstrated experience architecting microfrontend solutions and component-driven design systems.
Preferred Qualifications
Deep domain expertise in AI application platforms, LLM streaming UIs, or agentic app-generation products. Proven track record of unifying complex, multi-surface products into a single coherent user experience. Advanced architectural experience with modern bundlers (Module Federation, Rspack ), React Router v6/7, and TanStack Query/Table. Strong background in building low-latency, data-rich visualizations for large datasets. Experience mentoring senior engineers, contributing to shared tooling, and collaborating closely with backend/platform teams. Why Cisco?
