• Collaborate with Design and Product to translate user needs into intuitive, high-impact experiences.
• Identify and fix performance bottlenecks across the frontend stack.
• Work in a fast, iterative environment where shipping value weekly is the norm.
• Contribute to frontend standards and best practices, from component design to test coverage.
• Stay sharp — bring in new ideas, tools, and techniques that help us move faster or deliver better UX.
  
  

You Might Be a Fit If You...

• Have 3–5 years of experience building production-grade web apps.

• Have a strong handle on web fundamentals: performance, accessibility, responsive design.
• Write clean, testable code and are comfortable with testing frameworks like Jest, React Testing Library, Cypress, or Playwright.
• Understand how to work with REST and/or GraphQL APIs, and can reason through full-stack behavior.
• Are familiar with CI/CD pipelines and modern tooling like Vite, Webpack, ESLint, etc.
• Communicate clearly, ask good questions, and thrive in a collaborative, remote-first environment.
