To thrive in this role, you have

  • Deep knowledge and ability to navigate all aspects of front-end development, with 8+ years of active web and/or mobile development experience with React, React Native and Typescript

  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to articulate design decisions and rationale
  • Desire to drive engineering culture within your immediate team, as well as within the larger organization
