Job Overview
As a Software Engineer (Angular) at Africhange, you will be a core contributor to the frontend that powers our remittance platform.
You will design and build responsive, accessible interfaces that customers use to send money across borders — experiences that must be fast, intuitive, and rock-solid in low-bandwidth environments.
You’ll work closely with backend engineers, product managers, and designers to ship features that directly impact the financial wellbeing of our users.
This is a high-ownership role.
You will make meaningful architectural decisions, mentor junior contributors, and help set the standard for frontend engineering quality at Africhange.
Responsibilities
Product Engineering:
Build and maintain high-performance Angular components for our remittance and KYC flows, exchange rate displays, transaction history, and account management features.
Implement responsive, mobile-first UI that performs reliably across device types and network conditions common in diaspora markets.
Integrate with RESTful backend APIs for real-time data such as exchange rates, wallet balances, and payment statuses.
Develop reusable component libraries and ensure consistent design system adoption across the product.
Quality & Performance:
Write comprehensive unit and integration tests; maintain high coverage across critical payment flows.
Profile and optimize Angular application performance – bundle size, lazy loading, change detection, and rendering bottlenecks.
Conduct code reviews, enforce best practices, and contribute to raising the engineering bar across the frontend team.
Lead and participate in UAT, functional testing, and regression cycles ahead of releases.
Collaboration & Delivery:
Collaborate with the design team to translate Figma mockups into pixel-precise, accessible interfaces.
Work closely with backend engineers to define API contracts, manage state effectively, and ensure smooth end-to-end integration.
Participate actively in Agile SCRUM ceremonies – sprint planning, stand-ups, retrospectives, and demos.
Produce clear technical documentation for components, modules, and architectural decisions.
Coordinate with 3rd-party integration partners (payment processors, identity verification providers) on frontend integration requirements.
