Who are we?

The Motley Fool is a purpose-driven financial services company on a mission to make the world smarter, happier, and richer. For 30 years we've been helping people make better investment decisions through transparency, education, and Foolish fun. We're a fast-moving, collaborative team that values high-quality work, curiosity, and initiative. We care deeply about what we do, and we're driven by the impact our work has on real people's financial futures.

What does this team do?

The Market Tech team owns the order page platform, the core acquisition surface that drives new member subscriptions and existing member upgrades across The Motley Fool's product portfolio. It's high-stakes, high-visibility work: the experiences this team ships directly influence how people become Fools. The team moves fast, sweats the details, and takes conversion seriously without losing sight of the craft.

What would you do in this role?

As a Frontend Engineer contractor, you'll be a core contributor to the order page platform: building components, expanding CMS capabilities, and making sure critical purchase paths are reliable, performant, and conversion-optimized. You'll work closely with marketing, product, and engineering in a modern Next.js/React codebase backed by Sanity CMS.

More specifically, you would

•Build and maintain components for our Sanity-based order page application

•Implement new content types and schemas in Sanity Studio to give marketers self-service control over order page content

•Write and maintain end-to-end tests (Playwright or similar) covering critical purchase paths

•Contribute to URL structure, routing, and general application architecture improvements

•Collaborate with a small, focused engineering team via Zoom, Jira, and Slack

•Help explore what's possible when marketers can generate and A/B test order page content through AI tools

What we're looking for

•You're expert-level in React, TypeScript, Tailwind, and Next.js, including App Router, server components, and server actions

•You've built applications using a headless CMS; Sanity experience is a strong plus

•You can write and maintain end-to-end tests and take ownership of critical purchase path coverage

•You have experience with Docker, containerization, and CI/CD pipelines for Next.js applications

•You're comfortable working independently in a remote contractor capacity: proactive, communicative, and low-maintenance in the best way

•You use AI tools (like Claude Code and multi-agent workflows) daily to assist with planning and implementation, thoughtfully, not blindly

•You have a solid handle on web performance optimization: caching, asset bundling, and the like

•Your communication habits are clean: daily stand-up attendance, timely Slack responses, Jira ticket updates, and proactive status updates

•You have experience with A/B testing frameworks and an eye for conversion-focused UI/UX

•You're familiar with system monitoring and error reporting tools like Datadog and Sentry

•You review code well, can participate in an on-call rotation, and stay steady when requirements shift

•You balance business goals against engineering preferences without losing sight of either

•Bonus points: experience with OneTrust or other consent management platforms, or familiarity with Stripe-integrated purchase flows

Why this role is exciting

This is a contractor engagement with real ongoing work for the right person. You'll have meaningful ownership over a high-traffic, revenue-critical platform at a company that's been helping investors for 30 years. If you want to ship work that matters, collaborate with a team that respects the craft, and explore what AI-assisted engineering actually looks like in practice, this one's worth a look.
