About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Own and evolve the technical direction of the consumer platform, setting long-term architectural vision while making pragmatic, day-to-day technical decisions
Make high-leverage architectural decisions across a modern TypeScript ecosystem, balancing speed, scalability, product quality, and long-term maintainability
Serve as the technical “north star” for the pod through design reviews, code reviews, and deep technical guidance
Stay deeply hands-on in the codebase, contributing to complex features, debugging production issues, and driving system design work end-to-end
Partner closely with Product, Design, and Engineering leadership to shape roadmaps, challenge assumptions, and translate ambiguous problems into clear technical direction
Raise the bar for engineering quality across performance, reliability, testing strategy, observability, and developer experience
Actively mentor engineers by modeling strong engineering judgment
Define and operationalize AI-assisted engineering workflows that meaningfully increase team velocity (not just individual productivity), using tools like Cursor, Codex, Claude, and others
Participate in hiring and interviewing, helping to maintain a high technical bar of the organization
Collaborate across engineering teams to influence shared systems, infrastructure, and cross-cutting platform decisions

Requirements

What you’ll need

8+ years of software engineering experience with deep expertise in modern full-stack web development
Proven track record of owning or significantly influencing architecture for consumer-facing web products at scale
Strong mastery of TypeScript, React, Node.js, and Next.js, with a bias toward building maintainable systems over short-term hacks
Experience building and scaling modern full-stack applications using GraphQL, Apollo, and AWS, with strong expertise in both relational and NoSQL databases including Postgres and DynamoDB.
Demonstrated ability to operate as a technical leader
Exceptional engineering judgment — able to make clear decisions in ambiguous spaces with incomplete information
Strong, hands-on coding ability with a willingness to stay close to the implementation
Experience scaling systems with real constraints around performance, reliability, and product velocity tradeoffs
Excellent communication skills with the ability to influence across engineering, product, and design
Deep, practical fluency with AI-assisted development — not experimentation, but real workflow integration that improves how teams ship software
A bias toward systems thinking, simplicity, and long-term maintainability over local optimization
