Yext is looking for a talented software engineer to join our Iris team!
The Iris Team is a highly collaborative team at Yext. We design and maintain the UI infrastructure as well as build tools for engineers at the company to make sure their apps are reliable, resilient, performant, and scalable. One of the early responsibilities of this person will be to help us build out our new design system. We work heavily with rendering and serving frontend applications rather than building product features and would like someone with experience in that area as well.
We are looking for someone to work closely with us and peer engineers to offer users a robust experience through tooling, automation, and advocacy.
This is a distributed team, so being comfortable collaborating in a remote environment is important.
What You'll Do- Contribute to the development and maintenance of global user facing features such as navigation and notifications that are used across the company’s platform.
- Build internal packages and infrastructure to support product engineers in delivering their features at scale.
- Collaborate closely with other engineers at the company to identify pain points in the developer experience and implement reusable solutions.
- Help define and implement engineering best practices across shared codebases.
- Work with designers, product managers, and other stakeholders to ensure features meet high standards for accessibility, performance, and consistency.
- Participate in sprint planning, code reviews, and system design discussions to improve both team velocity and code quality.
- Write and maintain documentation to support adoption of global tools and features.
- 4+ years of professional experience with modern Frontend frameworks (e.g., React, Vue, or similar), backend languages (e.g. Python), backend frameworks (e.g. Django), and infrastructure tools (e.g. AWS and Terraform).
- Solid understanding of frontend architecture and how to build scalable and maintainable UI code.
- Experience building shared features or tools that serve multiple teams and products.
- Comfortable navigating ambiguity and breaking down complex problems into incremental solutions.
- Strong collaborator who communicates well with engineers, designers, and PMs.
- Familiarity with modern build tools and bundlers (Webpack, Vite, etc.) and testing frameworks.
- Experience with cloud services such as AWS
