Experience Level: 5-10 Years

Remote Status: On-site

🚀 Role Summary

• Lead the Front-End architecture and User Experience (UX) strategy for Alstom's critical Fleet Operations Portal, a key digital product within the Digital Foundry.

• Drive the definition, organization, and security of all Front-End and Human-Machine Interface (HMI) activities for digital applications, ensuring consistency and quality.

• Collaborate closely with Human Factors experts, Product Owners, and UX/UI designers to translate business needs into intuitive and robust digital solutions for industrial operations.

• Develop and maintain reusable UI component libraries and design systems, ensuring adherence to Alstom's global technology policies and best practices.

• Mentor and guide Front-End development teams, fostering a culture of technical excellence, innovation, and user-centric design in an Agile product environment.

📝 Enhancement Note: While the title includes "Front-End / Architecte UX," the responsibilities and context strongly suggest a role deeply embedded within product development, specifically focusing on the operational interface for industrial applications. This role interfaces with "revenue operations" and "GTM" through its impact on how Alstom's fleet operations are managed, which directly influences service delivery, efficiency, and potentially client satisfaction and contract fulfillment. The emphasis on "Fleet Operations Portal" and its strategic importance for railway operations positions this as a critical component of Alstom's digital transformation efforts, impacting operational efficiency and customer experience.

📈 Primary Responsibilities

• Define and champion the Front-End vision and technical strategy in close collaboration with Human Factors experts and Product Owners.

• Contribute to the selection and evolution of standards, design systems, and reusable UI component libraries.

• Select appropriate Front-End architectures and patterns (e.g., monolithic, micro-frontends, Progressive Web App, UI shell) based on project needs and scalability.

• Design, develop, and maintain a shared design system and robust, reusable UI component libraries with theming capabilities.

• Ensure seamless alignment between UX/UI designs, technical choices, and product requirements for a cohesive user experience.

• Organize and oversee development, testing, and deployment strategies for Front-End applications, guaranteeing high quality and performance.

• Conduct thorough reviews of deliverables, challenging them on performance, security, accessibility, and maintainability criteria.

• Provide technical mentorship and guidance to Front-End development teams, fostering skill development and best practices.

• Coordinate effectively with Product Owners, Architects, UX/UI designers, and System & Platform teams to ensure integrated solutions.

• Contribute to product roadmaps and participate in technical reviews within the Digital Foundry, influencing future development directions.

📝 Enhancement Note: The responsibilities highlight a strategic architectural role rather than a pure coding position.
