Senior Software Engineer, Frontend

Senior Software Engineer, Frontend About The Role We’re hiring a Senior Frontend Engineer to be a technical anchor for our Marketplace web rewrite program. You’ll lead the rebuild of our highest‑traffic journeys and help set the frontend patterns and standards the team will reuse across the site for years. This is a Senior role with staff‑leaning scope. We’re intentionally building levels gradually, and we expect this hire to grow into Staff as they expand cross‑team influence and ownership. This role will be in person (4 days per week - Monday‑Thursday) at our energetic NYC headquarters. The base salary range is $170,000$210,000 , plus equity, commensurate with experience. What You’ll Do Own major initiatives end‑to‑end across our highest‑traffic surfaces, starting with Search Results (SRP) and Details (DLP), with clear goals around Core Web Vitals, SEO, and conversion. Lead technical design for large changes (RFCs/design docs), drive alignment with Product/Design, and make pragmatic tradeoffs that stick. Define and implement reusable patterns in a Next.js App Router codebase (routing/data fetching, caching strategy, component architecture, error handling, analytics instrumentation). Raise the quality bar through standards, reviews, and mentorship, helping a junior‑leaning team level up quickly. Improve developer velocity by shaping tooling and practices (testing strategy with Playwright, observability with Datadog, CI hygiene). Partner with backend engineers on API contracts to improve frontend performance and iteration speed. Tech Stack Frontend: Next.js (App Router), React, TypeScript, Tailwind, shadcn/ui Testing: Playwright Observability: Datadog Backend context: Ruby on Rails and Node.js on AWS, with Postgres and MongoDB Qualifications Your Experience We encourage candidates to apply even if they don’t have 100% of the below qualifications. We believe in a holistic approach when evaluating talent for our team and post new roles often, so even if this role isn’t quite right, we want to meet you! 7+ years building production web applications (or equivalent senior‑level experience). Deep React expertise and strong command of modern frontend architecture, especially in Next.js‑style SSR/SPA hybrids. Proven experience leading rewrites or major migrations of high‑traffic surfaces with measurable results (Core Web Vitals, SEO, conversion, reliability). Strong technical judgment and ability to lead ambiguous projects from scoping through rollout and measurement. High engineering bar: strong testing discipline, observability mindset, and maintainable code. Ability to mentor and raise the bar for a team through clear communication and technical leadership. We encourage you to apply even if you don’t match every qualification. Growth Path We expect this hire to grow into Staff by expanding scope from owning SRP/DLP to setting org‑wide frontend standards, influencing adjacent teams, and leading additional high‑impact surfaces as the rewrite program scales.
