Job summary

Imgix is hiring a Senior Full Stack Engineer to own features across the stack, from API design to polished UI. You’ll influence frontend architecture with React/Next.js, while maintaining scalable Python APIs and cloud work on GCP.

The role emphasizes hands‑on work, thoughtful code reviews, documentation, and collaboration with US and Japan teams in a remote‑first setup. Competitive compensation is offered with strong benefits.

Qualifications

• Substantial full‑stack professional experience across the stack, independently leading technical decisions.
• Proficient with at least one major cloud platform (GCP) to design, deploy, and operate production workloads.
• Strong front‑end expertise with React, modern JS/TS ecosystem, and strong UI craft (spacing, hierarchy, accessibility).
• Backend proficiency in Python or quick up‑skilling ability; open to developers from Node/Go/Java transitioning to Python.
• Hands‑on experience with relational databases (PostgreSQL) and REST/GraphQL API design.
• Fluent use of AI coding assistants in production work and understanding their strengths/limits.
• Comfortable owning features end‑to‑end with limited handoffs; strong written and verbal communication for distributed teams.

Responsibilities

• Design, build, and ship end‑to‑end full‑stack features from API design to polished UI.
• Drive front‑end architecture decisions on components, state management, performance, and design system evolution.
• Champion testing culture by establishing tooling, patterns, and comprehensive coverage for front‑end and account‑management code.
• Write clean backend Python APIs and contribute to data modeling and cloud infrastructure on GCP.
• Build with AI tools (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini) for prompting, reviewing, and refining code.
• Join a low‑volume L3 on‑call rotation and participate in runbooks and rollbacks with SREs.
• Mentor teammates through code review, pairing, and thorough documentation.
