## About the Role

* 8+ years building user-facing software, with deep expertise in frontend architecture and performance
 * Have led the transformation of a large, long-lived React application with a focus on performance, product impact and dev experience and owned the outcome
 * Strong command of React and TypeScript, with production experience in GraphQL and a modern state management approach such as Redux or Zustand, including opinions on when each is the right tool
 * Real performance engineering skill: you can instrument an application, read both frontend and backend traces, determine precisely where time is going, and prove the improvement with numbers
 * Solid client-side caching fundamentals, including normalization, invalidation, and the failure modes that appear at scale
 * Hands-on experience with bundlers and build tooling, and clear views on code splitting and delivery tradeoffs
 * Enough backend depth to design systems at a high level. You can propose a new API architecture in service of a faster client and reason about its frontend implications
 * Track record of validating ideas, coordinating across engineering teams, and sequencing work that spans organizational boundaries
 * An operator mindset: you measure, you ship, you follow through, and you stay close to production, * Experience introducing automated enforcement such as lint rules, CI gates, or performance budgets that changed engineering behavior broadly
 * Background in data-dense or visualization-heavy applications where rendering cost and data volume are the core constraints
 * Familiarity with observability tooling such as Datadog RUM and APM, or comparable tracing and session-replay stacks
 * Working knowledge of Go or a similar backend language
 * Exposure to ML, MLOps, or AI agent workflows, or genuine curiosity about the researchers and engineers who use these tools
 * Experience with a highly configurable product, where the space of user and deployment settings can't be exhaustively tested
