Frontend Engineer Intern

About the role
Our client is a regulated financial services group that requires an interface for monitoring complex governance data. This role exists to assist our principals in building and refining the technical tools used to present this information to boards and executive teams. You will help translate high level strategy into functional code to ensure that our technical solutions are as rigorous and clear as our advisory work.

About Arabian Private Holdings
Arabian Private Holdings was founded on the principle that many critical business problems do not fit the traditional large firm consulting model. A board facing a succession question or a family group weighing a capital injection does not need a team of twelve associates and a hundred page methodology deck. They need experienced partners who can sit with a problem, form a rigorous view, and defend it. We take on a limited number of mandates to ensure that every client receives direct attention from the principals who are actually accountable for the outcome. Our work covers corporate strategy, governance, and operating model efficiency for some of the most significant family groups, listed corporations, and government entities in the region. We focus on clarity over complexity. We operate as a remote firm, choosing to prioritize the quality of our analysis and the strength of our relationships over traditional office overhead or aggressive growth targets.

What you will do

• Develop and maintain web interfaces using React and modern CSS for client facing dashboards.
• Assist in building prototypes that allow principals to demonstrate governance models to holding companies.
• Write clean, readable JavaScript that follows the architectural standards of the firm.
• Collaborate with our data specialists to ensure that backend outputs are correctly mapped to frontend components.
• Participate in the review of design documents to ensure technical feasibility and professional appearance.
• Testing our internal tools across various devices to ensure a consistent experience for stakeholders.
• Documeting the logic within our frontend codebase to support long term maintenance and clarity.
• Supporting the delivery of digital assets for specific mandates as part of our advisory process.

What we are looking for

• A basic understanding of HTML, CSS, and modern JavaScript gained through your studies or personal projects.
• Familiarity with React or a similar library for building component based user interfaces.
• A logical mindset and the ability to think through complex problems in a structured way.
• Clear written communication skills and the ability to describe technical issues in plain English.
• An interest in corporate governance and the operating models of large organizations.
• Precision and attention to detail when working with layouts, spacing, and typography.

How we work
We operate as a 100% remote firm, which requires a high level of individual accountability and clear communication. Our team interacts through digital collaboration tools to share findings, review code, and manage project timelines. Because we are a principal led firm, you will have the opportunity to work closely with senior partners who provide direct feedback and mentoring on every mandate. We do not value long hours for their own sake: we value clarity of thought and the ability to reach a precise conclusion. This role offers an environment where your technical work is directly connected to the strategic advice we provide to our clients. You will see how software can be used as a tool for making better corporate decisions at the highest levels of a portfolio.

What the role offers

• Practical experience working on mandates for high profile holding companies and government entities.
• The opportunity to learn how engineering supports corporate governance and strategic decision making.
• A competitive salary that is attractive for an entry level intern in the remote market.
• Direct mentorship from principals who have extensive experience in the advisory and technical sectors.
• Full flexibility to work from any location as part of our permanent remote operating model.
