Requirements

7+ years of professional experience in frontend software development
Experience working on frontend infrastructure, platform, or developer experience teams. You've built shared libraries, design systems, component frameworks, or internal tooling that other engineers depend on.
Deep expertise in TypeScript and React. You've thought seriously about component API design, render performance, state management boundaries, and how to ship library code that other teams consume without friction.
Strong opinions on developer experience, loosely held. You care about making other engineers productive and can balance long-term platform health with near-term team needs.
Eye for design and attention to detail. You hold UI to a high visual and interaction quality bar.
You treat other engineering teams as customers. You also care about the end users downstream (the operators using what gets built on top of your platform).
Comfort operating across the stack when needed. You don't stop at the frontend boundary if the right solution involves a backend change.
