## About the Role

+ You have experience building complex web applications with TypeScript and modern UI frameworks, including React or similar technologies.
 + You understand state management, GraphQL and Apollo, component-scoped styling, and reusable component-library design.
 + You have built tools or platforms for internal users and care about creating intuitive, reliable operator experiences.
 + You are comfortable working across frontend and backend systems, including reading or modifying Java services and working with API contracts such as gRPC, Protobuf, or REST.
 + You can work with Scala/Python when pipelines or APIs need attention and navigate cloud infrastructure and data tools such as GCP, GKE, BigQuery, or GCS.
 + You make thoughtful decisions about technical debt and can clearly communicate the tradeoffs between maintaining, improving, and migrating systems.
 + You have experience working across shared codebases and understand the collaboration needed when teams depend on common components and services.
 + You may also bring experience with data pipelines, LLM applications such as RAG or vector search, or server-side rendering.

## Description

+ Own frontend features end-to-end, from component design and implementation in React and TypeScript through server-side creative rendering.
 + Work across the stack when needed, including debugging Java and Apollo services, evolving gRPC, Protobuf, and REST API contracts, tracing data through BigQuery, and improving pipeline output.
 + Support multi-market and localization workflows, helping creatives render reliably across locales and enabling smooth new-market launches.
 + Partner with product and design to shape features and improvements based on operator needs.
 + Improve the developer experience through stronger testing infrastructure, build performance, component documentation, and integration tooling.
 + Contribute to architectural decisions and technical direction as the platform evolves.
