Job Description

We are looking for a Senior Front End Engineer to join our Developer Experience team. In this role, you will help design and scale our web properties powered by our GraphQL API. The Developer Experience team owns our customer / internal dashboards and tooling, developer documentation, and more! While this position is primarily front end, you will also be contributing to API design decisions, helping to develop API features with UI / UX in mind.

Our stack is GraphQL, TypeScript, React, Next.js, and Tailwind. We deploy serverless functions and believe in leveraging edge computing to deliver modern experiences. We work closely with product and design teams to craft the experiences of our platform using our API.

You :

• Know the JavaScript and TypeScript ecosystems and tooling
• Know how to build a React application and understand how the browser works
• Understand data-fetching and caching patterns in front end applications
• Know how forms work
• Have an opinion on CSS and how it should be done in modern applications (it doesn't matter what the opinion is, just that you have one!)
• Have experience with front end observability and monitoring
• Believe in owning the entire application lifecycle - design, development, and deployment
• Are a full contributor - you not only want to build but want to have a say in how things are built
• Are customer-centric - whether the experience is for developers or non-technical users, their experience drives you
• You see the future powered by a "connected" ecosystem of integrations and have ideas on how you want to be part of that
