- Improve developer experience across build tooling, CI/CD, linting, type safety, and code generation
- Partner cross-functionally with design, product, and engineering stakeholders to align on component APIs, rollout plans, and success metrics
- Collaborate with backend teams on GraphQL APIs; make targeted changes in Python services when needed to unblock platform work
- Mentor and coach senior engineers; raise the bar for quality, consistency, and maintainability
Requirements
- 8+ years of frontend engineering experience with clear ownership of a design system, shared component library, or frontend platform
- Expert proficiency with React and TypeScript with strong architectural judgment for scalable UI systems
- Demonstrated experience with accessibility best practices (WCAG 2.1 AA)
- Demonstrated experience delivering internationalization and/or RTL support
- Proven track record driving cross-team migrations/modernization (e.g., React major upgrades, tooling rebuilds)
- Strong communication skills; comfortable writing RFCs, leading discussions, and aligning stakeholders
- Experience improving DX through documentation, tooling, testing strategy, and component workflows (e.g., Storybook)
- Experience with or strong familiarity with React Native and/or mobile component systems
Nice to have
- Familiarity with GraphQL client tooling (e.g., Apollo Client)
- Familiarity with design-to-code workflows (e.g., Figma → component documentation)
- Comfort working across a broader stack when needed (Python services, Django/Flask)
- Exposure to AI-assisted/agentic developer tooling and platform integrations
- Experience in high-growth SaaS or product-led environments where platform teams enable many product squads
