- Work within large, established codebases and continuously improve their quality, maintainability and architecture.
- Collaborate closely with Product, Design and other engineers to turn customer and business needs into pragmatic technical solutions.
- Use GenAI development tools to support activities such as coding, debugging, refactoring, testing and documentation.
- Apply sound engineering judgement when using AI-generated solutions, validating outputs and ensuring that quality, security and maintainability remain high.
- Share knowledge, contribute to technical discussions and help continuously improve engineering practices within the team.
What you’ll bring:
- 5+ years of hands-on software engineering experience building and operating production systems.
- Strong professional experience with React, TypeScript and Node.js.
- Strong frontend engineering experience combined with the ability and willingness to contribute across backend services when needed.
- Experience working in large, existing codebases and delivering maintainable, well-tested software.
- Strong understanding of software engineering fundamentals, including application architecture, testing, code quality and maintainability.
- Experience taking ownership of features or technical solutions from design through production.
- Ability to make pragmatic technical decisions and clearly explain the reasoning and trade-offs behind them.
- Experience collaborating effectively with Product, Design and Engineering colleagues in cross-functional teams.
- Curiosity about GenAI and AI-assisted software development, with an interest in incorporating these tools into your everyday engineering workflow.
- A learning mindset and the ability to quickly pick up new technologies and tools. Willingness to learn Java and contribute to Java-based backend services as needed.
- Strong communication skills and the ability to collaborate, challenge ideas constructively and contribute to technical discussions.
