Manage individual priorities and deadlines while maintaining a high standard of execution. Required Experience 7+ years of professional frontend or full-stack engineering experience building and shipping production web applications. Proven experience operating as a staff or principal-level individual contributor within a collaborative engineering team. Experience collaborating closely with Product and Design partners to iterate on UX and balance technical and product tradeoffs. Demonstrated ability to take loosely defined product requirements and turn them into high-quality, production-ready solutions. A track record of improving code quality, developer experience, or frontend practices through example and influence rather than authority. Comfort operating in ambiguous, fast-moving environments and managing individual priorities without heavy process or oversight. Experience working with performance, reliability, and maintainability concerns in large or evolving frontend codebases. Advanced proficiency in TypeScript, React, HTML, and CSS, with a track record of building complex, user-facing features. Strong proficiency with CSS Modules and component-scoped styling approaches. Experience with modern state management patterns using React Query for server state and Zustand for client state. Strong experience designing and implementing responsive, accessible interfaces that follow modern UX and accessibility standards. Experience with monorepo tooling and workflows (Turborepo, Nx, or similar) and managing dependencies across multiple frontend packages. Hands-on experience writing and maintaining unit, integration, and end-to-end tests (e.g., Playwright, Vitest, React Testing Library). Experience building and consuming RESTful APIs, with understanding of API design best practices and error handling patterns. Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines, GitHub Actions, and deployment automation. Experience with Docker, infrastructure tooling, and DevOps practices is highly valued. Familiarity with modern development workflows and tooling, including Git, Linux-based environments, and containers. Bonus Points Comfortable working across the full stack when needed—familiarity with backend concepts, databases, and API development is a plus.
