Day to Day

In this role, you will own the design and development of scalable frontend experiences for analytics-focused products, including AI-native product surfaces. You will translate product and design requirements into high-quality technical solutions, build rich data-driven user experiences, and develop shared frontend and data-layer patterns used to fetch, transform, and prepare analytics data through configuration-driven approaches.

You will also create reusable UI, visualization, and integration patterns that improve consistency, reduce one-off engineering work, and support reliable analytics rendering. In addition, you will use strong engineering judgment to review code, unblock teammates, and improve platform quality through testing, validation, and maintainability practices—helping the team deliver consistent, reliable, and extensible product experiences over time.

Success in this role requires demonstrated frontend engineering experience with JavaScript or TypeScript and modern frameworks such as React, along with a track record of building reusable UI components and maintainable frontend architecture using component libraries, design systems, and modular code patterns. You should also be comfortable integrating with GraphQL or REST APIs, managing complex data-fetching and rendering workflows, building analytics- or visualization-heavy interfaces, and applying testing and quality practices through unit tests, end-to-end frameworks, and CI/CD pipelines.

Responsibilities

  • Design, implement, and maintain features and services that support core business workflows.

  • Contribute to the evolution of existing systems while helping prototype and deliver new capabilities.

  • Participate in code reviews and design discussions to maintain quality, reliability, and clarity.

  • Collaborate with engineers, product managers, and data partners to deliver end-to-end solutions.

  • Identify performance and scalability improvements and enhance existing code accordingly.

  • Share knowledge and provide guidance to teammates through collaboration and feedback.

  • Communicate technical ideas clearly and effectively within the team.

Skills/Competencies

  • Requires a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related field and a minimum of 5 years of related experience; or a Master’s degree with a minimum of 3 years of experience; or a PhD without experience

  • Experience building or contributing to large-scale or distributed systems.

  • Solid understanding of data structures, algorithms, and core computer science fundamentals.

  • A demonstrated sense of ownership and accountability for delivered work.

  • Curiosity, eagerness to learn, and enjoyment of solving complex technical problems.
