## About the Role

* 4+ years of professional software engineering experience in a product-centered team.
 * Demonstrates senior-level ownership: independently navigates ambiguity and proactively moves work forward without waiting for direction.
 * Experience building frontend React applications, ideally in eCommerce, marketplaces, or high-traffic consumer web. Hands-on with one or more of: product discovery and search/browse experiences, cart and checkout flows, or performance optimization for conversion-critical pages. You understand the constraints that make eCommerce frontend distinct: SEO best practices for organic discovery at scale, and building embedded or white-label experiences that perform seamlessly across many partner sites and brands.
 * Systems-level problem solver: comfortable navigating ambiguous, high-complexity challenges across distributed systems and infrastructure.
 * Strong Computer Science fundamentals: data structures, algorithms, and code design principles.
 * Proficiency in Javascript/Typescript and React, with a demonstrated ability to pick up new languages and adapt to a rapidly evolving stack. Experience with Ruby on Rails is preferred but not required, and server-side JavaScript experience is a plus.
 * Base level familiarity with relational databases.
 * Strong technical communication: expresses ideas clearly through well-crafted code, written documentation, and team communication with both technical and non-technical audiences
 * Collaborative by nature: as eager to mentor and share knowledge as to learn from others, with a genuine passion for craft and how great software gets built
