Job summary

ID.me is seeking a Senior Software Engineer, Front End to join the Applications team, building the SuperApp — ID.me's web experience that helps members discover where their verified identity unlocks benefits, offers, and services across commerce, government, healthcare, and travel.

This role covers the SuperApp's customer-facing web surfaces, including the Browser Extension and other front-end experiences such as Home Page, Life Events, and Government section.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
• Strong frontend engineering experience (typically 4+ years, or equivalent: 2+ years with a Master's degree)
• Experience building or maintaining browser extensions (Chrome/Edge/Firefox), including content scripts, background/service workers, and Manifest V3
• Solid production experience with React (and Next.js) — required for adoption, not only for wrappers

Responsibilities

• Build and Maintain SuperApp Web Experiences: Build and maintain the SuperApp's customer-facing web surfaces — including the Browser Extension's web-facing UI (content scripts, popup, in-page injected components) as well as other experiences like the Home Page and Life Events — using React and TypeScript.
• Implement Discovery & Offer Detection: Build contextual offer discovery, coupon/cashback detection, and in-page notification patterns that surface relevant offers as members browse and shop online.
• Integrate with Platform APIs: Integrate with Shopping Graph and Developer Portal APIs for merchant, offer, and eligibility data rather than hardcoding business logic client-side.
• Extend into Shop as Needed: Contribute to the broader ID.me Shop web experience alongside SuperApp surfaces as roadmap priorities evolve.
• Collaborate with Design and Product: Work closely with Design and Product to turn discovery and personalization concepts into working, member-centered web UI.
• Performance, Accessibility & Reliability: Ensure shipped SuperApp features meet ID.me's standards for performance, accessibility, and cross-browser reliability (Chrome, Edge, Firefox).
• Production Support: Provide production support and maintenance for shipped features, including triaging and resolving incidents and bugs.
