Requirements
~1 min read8+ years of professional software engineering experience with deep front-end expertise and meaningful full-stack range
Expert-level TypeScript and modern JavaScript (ES2020+), including async patterns and type-safe API design
Deep production experience with Next.js and React — App Router, server components, data-fetching and rendering strategy, and performance tuning at scale
Full-stack chops: comfort building server-side code with Node.js, designing APIs, working with relational or document databases, and deploying to cloud platforms
Hands-on experience with at least one headless or traditional CMS — Sanity, Gatsby preferred
Fluency with AI-first development tools such as Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor, and a pragmatic sense of when to use them
Experience writing automated tests with Playwright (or similar tools such as Cypress) and owning CI quality end-to-end
Comfortable translating Figma designs into production-grade UI, with mastery of HTML, CSS (including Tailwind or CSS-in-JS), accessibility fundamentals (WCAG, ARIA), and responsive design
Experience designing and integrating REST and GraphQL APIs, including debugging with browser DevTools and network inspection
Familiarity with Git, pull-request-based workflows, and CI/CD systems such as GitHub Actions, Vercel, or Netlify
A demonstrated history of working alone and remotely with little guidance — exceptionally self-motivated, self-managing time, deliverables, and communication across async, distributed teams
Proactively send clear, concise written updates to project managers and engineering leads on a regular cadence — without being chased; over-communicate by default
Join the ceremonies that matter for your engagements (planning, reviews, retrospectives) while protecting deep, independent work time — stand-up participation may be async
