WHAT YOU'LL DO

Braze’s product is the control center for thousands of the world’s most sophisticated marketing teams. The Frontend Infrastructure & Experience (FIX) team builds the platform foundations that every product engineer relies on and owns key parts of the end-user experience.

The team makes it easy for engineers across Braze to build polished, accessible, and consistent UIs. FIX owns our design system and component library, internationalization stack, code generation and scaffolding tooling, and the navigation and routing layer of the product. The team also owns key customer-facing experiences including our data tables and our rich text, drag-and-drop, and code editors.

As a Senior Engineer on FIX, you will build high-impact frontend infrastructure and product experiences used across Braze. You will lead important projects from design through rollout, raise the quality bar through technical judgment and code review, and help other engineers move faster by making the product easier to build, test, and maintain.

  • Mentor other engineers through code review, pairing, technical guidance, and clear communication

Recent and ongoing work on the team includes:

  • Developing the framework used to build our marketing message editors

  • Migrating the navigation and routing layer to a fully React-based system
  • Extending the design system with semantic tokens and supporting a product rebrand
  • Building type-safe scaffolding and API tooling for frontend development
  • Advancing accessibility, localization, and consistency across product experiences
