  • Implement high-quality UI components that scale across our media and e-commerce platforms
  • Partner with product managers and designers to translate business and user requirements into intuitive interfaces
  • Own key areas of the frontend codebase, driving improvements in code organization, performance, and maintainability
  • Lead technical discovery and scoping for frontend features, ensuring alignment with backend and mobile teams
  • Optimize site speed, accessibility, and SEO using best practices in SSR, lazy loading, and Core Web Vitals
  • Contribute to shared frontend libraries, tooling, and design system components to support team consistency
  • Conduct technical reviews, pair programming, and mentorship to grow frontend capabilities across the organization
  • Monitor production issues affecting the UI layer and participate in the on-call rotation for frontend concerns

Who You Are

  • 5+ years of professional experience building frontend applications at scale with expert-level proficiency in React, TypeScript, and component-based architecture
  • Strong experience with SSR frameworks (Next.js, Remix) and ability to write accessible, performant, SEO-friendly code with a mobile-first approach
  • Deep understanding of mobile UX principles, browser performance optimization, Core Web Vitals, and cross-device compatibility
  • Demonstrated eye for aesthetics with a proven track record of building interactive, highly engaging user experiences that captivate audiences
  • Experience creating rich animated and parallax storytelling experiences using creative coding libraries (p5.js, Three.js, D3.js, WebGL, Canvas APIs)
  • Ability to rapidly deliver working prototypes with minimal oversight while navigating ambiguity and translating creative briefs into technical solutions
  • Strong collaboration skills with designers, creatives, and strategists, balancing technical constraints with creative vision
  • Preferred :
  • Experience with headless commerce platforms, particularly Hydrogen and Shopify's stack
  • Familiarity with AI / ML APIs (OpenAI, Hugging Face) and workflow automation tools (n8n, Zapier)
  • Expertise in frontend observability, performance profiling, and monitoring tools
  • Background in media, publishing, or e-commerce organizations with experience mentoring engineers and establishing frontend best practices at scale
