- Be a major player on a new engineering team, while driving technical front-end decisions and collaborating across multiple remote teams.
- Collaborate with technical product owners, architects, and other software engineers to rapidly build, test, and deploy code in the creation of a redesigned UI – allowing new features to be brought to the Seismic platform faster, without compromising robustness, quality or maintainability
- Explore new technologies and industry trends and bring your findings to life in our products.
- Participate in and contribute towards code reviews, automated testing, bug/issue triage, and documentation.
