THE ROLE

We’re seeking a passionate and experienced Senior Development Engineer to drive the design and development of cutting-edge user interfaces that power our next-generation applications. You’ll play a key role in shaping the user experience, driving technical excellence, and mentoring a team of talented engineers.
You will be responsible for helping lead our engineering efforts through planning, design and architecture, execution, and support. As a technical leader on the team, you will be able to help mentor less-experienced engineers, build strong relationships with technical leaders on other teams, and facilitate a strong team culture, while applying best practices throughout the Software Development Life Cycle.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Develop competency across our complete web technologies stack (client framework, and backend services)
• Weigh architectural trade-offs and apply synchronous and asynchronous design patterns
• Produce high quality software that is unit-tested, code-reviewed, regression-tested, and checked in regularly for continuous integration/continuous deployment, all while mentoring younger developers in best practices to ensure stability.
• Become a technology/development leader contributing to initiatives across the organization.
• Dissect requirements, architect solutions, and estimate work for new business requirements.
• Quickly debug and resolve issues identified in production, with an eye towards long-term stability of our complex environment.
• Initiate, plan, and execute large-scale, cross functional, and org-wide critical programs.
• Display ownership and leverage your technical leadership to ensure we adhere to engineering best practices, and evangelize opportunities to improve engineering productivity and craftsmanship
• Architect and implement scalable, responsive, and accessible UI components using modern frameworks (e.g., React, Next.js).
• Delve into backend systems (Java) and customize their functionality in a stable and performant manner.
• Collaborate with product managers, designers, and backend engineers to deliver seamless user experiences.
• Drive UI and backend performance optimization and ensure cross-browser compatibility.
• Lead code reviews, establish and enforce best practices, and contribute to a culture of continuous improvement.
• Stay current with emerging technologies and trends and evaluate their potential for adoption.
• Mentor junior developers and contribute to team growth and development.
