🚀 Senior Frontend Developer at Waitly

Copenhagen or Nykøbing F - Full-time

Do you want to take ownership of the frontend in a fast-growing SaaS product and set new standards for quality, performance, and user experience?

Waitly is Denmark’s leading platform for waiting lists in housing. We work with more than 500 housing organizations, serve over 100,000 users, and manage more than 200,000 subscriptions - and we are just getting started. Our ambition is to scale across Europe with an office in Berlin too, and we need you to raise the bar for our frontend.

🎯 Your role

As a Senior Frontend Developer, you will take ownership of our frontend and set higher standards for quality and maintainability. Your responsibilities include:

• Building features in NuxtJS, VueJS, Tailwind, and DatoCMS.
• Implementing designs from Figma into code that works in practice.
• Turning sketches and ideas into great solutions by using existing components creatively.
• Ensuring frontend performance and SEO best practices are always considered.
• Collaborating closely with our CTO and backend developers to integrate APIs and data flows.
• Helping shape structure and component reuse in the frontend for long-term maintainability.
• Leveraging AI in your daily workflow – from speeding up implementation and testing to improving component reuse, accessibility, and performance.

This role is for an experienced developer who enjoys working both independently and as part of a small team. You will be the go-to person for frontend and have a big impact on the look and feel of our platform.
