Job Description

What is the prospect? This is an opportunity to contribute to building the reviewer experience for AI governance at enterprise scale. As Staff Engineer for AI Governance UI & Reviewer Experience, you’ll help build the governance platform’s frontend - a Next.js/React 19 microservice that sits in front of backend governance services and makes complex AI governance decisions understandable and actionable for human reviewers.

You’ll contribute to building the UI that enables reviewers to make defensible governance decisions: presenting evidence clearly, surfacing risk classifications, routing escalations, and tracking remediation. You’ll also help build automation that streamlines governance workflows, working alongside senior engineers to create seamless integrations with enterprise risk systems.

This is a hands-on Staff Engineer role where you’ll implement production-grade React applications that serve as the human interface to RBC’s AI governance plane. You’ll work under the guidance of Principal Engineers to implement the technical vision for the governance UI and follow established standards and patterns.

You’ll work on genuinely hard UX problems: how do you present assessment questions and LLM generated responses (and corresponding evals) so reviewers trust them? How do you implement escalation workflows that get the right decisions to the right authority? How do you make audit evidence legible to humans while maintaining traceability ?

What will you do? You will contribute to building the governance UI microservice:

Frontend Development (Hands-On)

Implement features for the governance platform UI using Next.js 14+ / React 19





Build components using the App Router architecture with server components and streaming

Develop reviewer workflows using TypeScript, TanStack Query, and modern React patterns

Implement BFF (Backend-for-Frontend) patterns to integrate with governance APIs

Build components following established architecture, state management, and data fetching patterns

Write and maintain Playwright + Jest test suites for UI reliability

Implement frontend features with proper error boundaries, loading states, and accessibility

Risk Workflow Development & Automation

Collaborate with risk specialists and senior engineers to understand governance processes and implement technical solutions

Build automation features and intelligent agents to generate risk assessment artifacts (risk statements, control mappings, evidence packages, compliance reports)

Implement integrations with risk book of records (Archer/Maverick) to push governance artifacts

Implement browser automation using tools like Playwright for platforms without API connections

Contribute to building the audit artifact repository within the governance platform

Implement integrations between the governance platform and risk book of records following established patterns

Contribute to integrating individual risk domain workflows into the overall governance layer





Reviewer Experience & Workflow Implementation

Build reviewer workflows that enable humans to make good governance decisions quickly

Implement interfaces that present eval evidence, risk classifications, and decision options clearly

Build escalation screens that route high-consequence decisions to the right authority

Implement remediation tracking interfaces that make governance outcomes visible and actionable

Build evidence presentation layers that reduce cognitive load while maintaining completeness

Contribute to building dashboards for monitoring governance operations, decision patterns, and system health

Implement configuration UIs for governance policy, thresholds, and control registry management

API Integration & Backend Connectivity

Integrate with backend governance services: decision engine, eval platform, evidence store, telemetry systems

Consume APIs from agent platforms, control plane/gateway, and risk registries (Archer/Maverick)

Implement event-driven updates and real-time data flows using modern React patterns

Build error handling and fallback experiences when backend services are unavailable

Implement caching strategies and optimistic updates for responsive user experience

Quality & Observability

Write Playwright end-to-end tests and Jest unit tests

Implement frontend observability: error tracking, performance monitoring, user analytics

Build accessible interfaces that meet WCAG standards for enterprise compliance

Use established design systems and component libraries for governance UI consistency

What do you need to succeed? Must Have:

5+ years of software development experience
