Responsibilities
- Own the Frontend Application Layer: Help design and build the frontend from the ground up, establishing scalable patterns for components, routing, state management, performance, accessibility, and maintainability
- Build Production-Ready Experiences: Translate product requirements and UI/UX concepts into responsive, intuitive, high-quality application features
- Integrate with APIs: Build reliable integrations between the frontend and backend services, confidently working with API contracts, data structures, payloads, application state, error handling, and asynchronous workflows
- Shape Frontend Architecture: Participate in technical decisions around frameworks, libraries, application structure, reusable components, testing strategies, and development standards
- Work Across Engineering Boundaries: Collaborate with backend development, AI/technical specialists, QA, and product leadership to solve problems that span multiple parts of the application
- Build Efficient Development Workflows: Work within GitHub, AWS/GIT-based workflows, and CI/CD pipelines to support reliable development, testing, integration, and deployment
- Use AI to Increase Engineering Velocity: Apply AI-assisted development tools to accelerate documentation, testing, debugging, code scaffolding, and repetitive engineering tasks while independently reviewing, validating, and improving generated output
- Automate Where It Makes Sense: Write lightweight scripts or utilities to eliminate repetitive tasks, manipulate data, support development environments, or improve engineering workflows
- Deliver Iteratively: Break complex requirements into manageable technical tasks and deliver working software through an Agile/Scrum development process
- Contribute Beyond Your Code: Participate in code reviews, technical discussions, sprint planning, estimation, and continuous improvement of the team's engineering practices
