- Identify site-wide challenges; propose, test, and ship solutions.
- Champion and drive large-scale, cross-functional initiatives that improve the Web platform.
- Raise web stability, scalability, performance, and accessibility by implementing best-in-class web development standards.
- Supercharge the web development lifecycle with AI agents: accelerating large-scale migrations, automating repetitive engineering tasks, and building agent-powered workflows that let developers ship faster with higher confidence.
- Mentor team members and participate actively in technical design and code reviews and architectural decisions.
What we're looking for:
- 5+ years of experience in Web development and a deep understanding of JavaScript, CSS, DOM, HTTP protocol and how the web works.
- Expertise with technologies such as React, Redux (or other state management solutions), Relay, GraphQL, TypeScript, Jest and React Testing Library.
- Good knowledge of build tools such as Webpack, Rspack, or Vite.
- Familiarity with Node.js, server-side rendering techniques, and frameworks such as Next.js or Remix.
- Track record of delivering large, cross-functional projects across multiple organizations and being a champion of developer experience, performance and quality.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills and the ability to collaborate across teams to make platform improvements, test functionality, and evangelize adoption of platform features.
- Hands-on experience with AI coding agents (eg. Claude Code, Cursor, Codex) and a point of view on how to harness them for large-scale migrations, code generation, and developer workflow automation.
- Love for Web and drive to keep up-to-date with new technologies, trends and best practices in client architecture.
- Bachelor’s degree in computer science or equivalent experience.
