## About the Role

This role is ideal for an exceptionally self-motivated engineer with deep production experience in TypeScript and Next.js, the ability to extend into APIs, data layers, and infrastructure when the work calls for it, and AI-first tools like Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor already woven into their daily workflow., + 8+ 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

## Description

* Own the design, build, and delivery of user-facing features and full-stack slices of AI-first web and SaaS products using Next.js, React, TypeScript, and Node.js
 * Take engagements from ambiguous requirements to shipped product with minimal guidance - scoping, sequencing, and driving the work yourself
*
Translate Figma designs into pixel-accurate, responsive, accessible interfaces that hold up across browsers and devices
*
Integrate headless CMS platforms - Sanity or other headless CMS - wiring up schemas, structured content, and preview environments
*
Design, build, and consume REST and GraphQL APIs, including authentication, caching, data modeling, and error-handling patterns, extending into server-side code and databases where needed
*
Leverage AI-first development tooling (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor) to accelerate delivery while maintaining code quality and review discipline

 * Own quality end-to-end - write component and end-to-end tests with Playwright, maintain CI quality gates, and prevent regressions without relying on downstream QA
*
Set technical direction on your engagements - make and document architectural decisions, weigh trade-offs, and raise the bar in code reviews
*
Drive front-end performance, accessibility, and SEO improvements using Lighthouse, axe, and Core Web Vitals tooling
*
Maintain documentation for components, integrations, and handoffs in Jira, Confluence, and project repositories that is clear enough for others to pick up without you in the room
*
Surface technical risks, trade-offs, and status proactively - on your workstreams, you are the primary signal, + 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
+
Collaborate with designers and product during requirements and design reviews to flag feasibility and UX concerns early

 + Write thorough pull request descriptions, commit messages, and inline documentation - your written record substitutes for hallway context
 + Accurately track and report billable hours against tasks and tickets in Jira
 + Raise scope changes, blockers, or conflicting requirements immediately so timelines, priorities, and contract hours can be adjusted
 + Communicate technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders and client contacts without jargon or hand-waving
