  • Participate in code reviews, providing and receiving feedback to raise the bar for the entire team
  • Stay current with modern frontend technologies and AI-assisted development practices to improve efficiency and quality
What We’re Looking For:
  • 5+ years of UI development experience with JavaScript, TypeScript, and Angular Frameworks
  • Ability to effectively leverage AI development tools (such as GitHub Copilot, CodeGPT, Claude, and Cursor) while maintaining high engineering standards
  • Strong sense of ownership demonstrated through shipping production-quality features
  • Expert at front end operational excellence - reliability, performance, instrumentation and measurability first
  • Drive changes to frontend pipeline in efforts to improve developer experience and time to ship
