Responsibilities

• Maintain a high bar for quality through code reviews, testing, and production readiness.
• Partner with product, design, and backend engineers to shape solutions and deliver reliably.
• Design and build scalable front-end systems that adapt to evolving product needs.
• Strengthen performance, accessibility, maintainability, and consistency across the codebase.
• Build A/B tests, event tracking, and measurement capabilities that support rapid learning and experimentation.
• Use AI tools for prototyping, scaffolding, and refactoring, then validate output with strong engineering judgment.
• Build and maintain automated test coverage across unit, component, integration, and end-to-end layers.

Requirements

Experience & Education:

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, a related field, or equivalent professional experience.
• 4+ years in software engineering with a track record of building and shipping production applications.

Required Skills:

• Deep expertise in React and TypeScript, including advanced typing strategies, component architecture, and reusable design patterns.
• Strong understanding of browser fundamentals: rendering, event handling, networking, and performance characteristics.
• Experience building and scaling component-driven applications, including state management, data flow, and separation of concerns.
• Proficiency in performance optimization techniques such as code splitting, lazy loading, memoization, and runtime efficiency.
• Experience designing and integrating with APIs, including handling async data, caching strategies, and error states.
• Proven testing strategies across unit, component, integration, and end-to-end layers.
• Experience with headless and enterprise CMS platforms (e.g., Contentful, Adobe Experience Manager, WordPress), including content modeling and delivery APIs.
• Familiarity with observability and monitoring of user-facing applications, including performance tracking and production debugging.

• Strong collaboration and communication skills with a bias toward clear, maintainable, and scalable systems.

Preferred Skills:

• Experience with React Native.
• Track record on high-scale, consumer-facing applications.
• Familiarity with experimentation platforms, A/B testing, and event instrumentation.
• Hands-on experience with AI-powered development tools like Cursor and modern AI coding models.
• Practical understanding of AI strengths and limitations, paired with sound judgment in application.
• Ability to use AI agents to explore multiple approaches, compare tradeoffs, and converge on solutions without shipping "AI-shaped" code.

Benefits

• Annual base salary: $135,200–$178,880 (varies by qualifications, experience, skills, and competencies).
