Your responsibilities

• Define and evolve the frontend architecture for Growth surfaces — landing pages, onboarding flows, conversion funnels, and personalization layers.
• Champion a component-driven design system with modular, testable patterns that support A/B testing, feature flagging, and rapid experimentation.
• Drive frontend performance optimization (Core Web Vitals, bundle size, rendering) as a lever for conversion and engagement.
• Partner with Design, Product, and Marketing to scope experiments, translate mockups into accessible implementations, and prioritize conversion improvements.
• Translate technical constraints to non-technical stakeholders and use written documentation to drive alignment on architectural decisions.
• Remain hands-on: write and review frontend code daily in TypeScript/React, with supporting work in Python or Ruby for API integration.
• Own the experimentation pipeline — build and instrument A/B tests, analyze results, and iterate on winning variants.
• Provide accurate milestone estimates, monitor progress against schedules, and proactively communicate risks to stakeholders.
• Mentor engineers on frontend best practices, component design, accessibility, and the business context of their work.
• Lead frontend design reviews independently and establish standards for code quality, performance budgets, and testing coverage.

About you

• BS/MS in Computer Science/Engineering or equivalent experience.
• 7+ years of software engineering experience, with 4+ years focused on frontend development.
• Deep proficiency in TypeScript, React (or equivalent modern framework), and modern CSS/styling approaches.
• Strong understanding of responsive design, web accessibility (WCAG), and frontend performance optimization.
• Experience building and maintaining component libraries or design systems.
• Proficiency with at least one public cloud provider (AWS, Azure, GCP) and CI/CD pipelines for frontend deployments.
• Proven track record of leading small-to-medium teams to deliver high-quality, customer-facing web applications.
• Clear communicator comfortable presenting to both technical and business audiences.
