About Themis
Themis is a collaborative governance, risk, and compliance platform helping banks, credit unions, and fintechs streamline oversight, strengthen compliance programs, and move faster with confidence.
Our customers operate in highly regulated environments where strong governance, risk management, and compliance practices are critical. We partner closely with financial institutions and fintechs to help them build scalable, effective oversight programs, strengthen third-party oversight, and navigate an increasingly complex regulatory landscape.
At Themis, we believe great companies are built through partnership, expertise, ownership, and execution. We’re looking for team members who are excited to solve meaningful problems, build trusted relationships, and help shape the future of governance, risk, and compliance.
About the Role
We’re looking for a Frontend Engineer to craft the interfaces that make complex governance, risk, and compliance work feel clear and effortless for our customers.
In this role you’ll build and refine the Themis web application, turning sophisticated compliance workflows into intuitive, performant, and accessible experiences. You’ll partner closely with design, product, and backend engineers to ship features that customers rely on every day in high-stakes environments.
The ideal candidate cares deeply about the user experience and the details, writes clean and maintainable code, and takes ownership of features from design through production. You believe usability is a core part of building trust in a regulated product.
Working Hours & Availability
Themis is a remote-first team. Engineering operates with flexible working hours and supports asynchronous work, but all engineers are expected to maintain meaningful daily overlap with our core collaboration hours of approximately 11:00 AM–4:00 PM ET for standups, pairing, code review, and time-sensitive work.
This role may occasionally require availability outside of standard business hours to support releases or respond to high-priority production issues, but it is not part of a regular overnight on-call rotation.
We support flexibility where possible, but regular or extended blocks of unavailable time during core hours should be discussed and aligned in advance.
