Our mission is to modernize the developer environment, reduce friction in day-to-day workflows, and unlock sustainable long-term velocity for the entire Core org. We focus on the pre-deployment developer experience, with an emphasis on frontend-heavy improvements in the near term. Our work includes upgrading tooling and libraries, migrating off deprecated frameworks, strengthening support for our internal design system, speeding up testing and bundling, and addressing technical debt that slows down product delivery. Some initiatives we drive directly, while others involve building standards, frameworks, and example implementations that empower other feature teams to adopt best practices. By enabling engineers to work faster and with more confidence, the DX Pod creates leverage across the organization and ensures that Bubble's engineering culture can scale as our product and customer base grow. About The Role As a Senior Software Engineer on the Developer Experience Pod, you'll lead technical projects that improve how engineers build, test, and ship code at Bubble. You'll take ownership of complex initiatives, from shaping technical designs through execution, and ensure they deliver measurable improvements to developer velocity, performance, or satisfaction. You'll work closely with the pod's technical lead and engineering manager to prioritize initiatives, and collaborate with other teams to roll out changes that scale beyond the pod itself. This role is hands-on but also highly collaborative: you'll mentor teammates, set standards for high-quality code and maintainable architectures, and help establish best practices that raise the bar across Core engineering. As a Senior Software Engineer for CoreDX, you'll focus on: * Migrating off legacy frameworks and introducing modern frontend tooling * Upgrading shared libraries and improving support for our internal design system * Reducing test suite runtime and improving reliability of developer-facing tests * Optimizing the local development loop, including build, bundling, and hot reload times * Investigating and resolving sources of frontend performance regressions in the Editor * Defining standards and building frameworks that other Core teams can adopt to increase consistency and speed * Staying up to date with modern AI tools and incorporating them into the developer workflows ## Related Videos - [But, you're not Facebook](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/378-but-you-re-not-facebook) - [Developing the Backend with Stefan Lingler, CTO at Shpock](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100360-developing-the-backend-with-stefan-lingler-cto-at-shpock) - [Stop using Node.js like in 2020!
