You will collaborate with teammates, share knowledge, and help improve how we build and maintain our frontend systems. You will advocate for tools and frameworks based on their proven ability to solve our specific challenges, clearly articulating trade-offs rather than following industry trends.</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">By delivering consistently and frequently, as well as collaborating effectively with cross-functional partners, you will champion a product-minded approach that goes beyond task completion to ensure our product development is finely tuned to our customers' needs.<br></span><br></li>\n</ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold\">What skills, experience, and qualifications do you need to succeed in this role?</span></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: bold\">Essential </span></p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Experience with the React framework and proficiency in TypeScript.</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Familiar with version control systems like GitHub.</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Familiar with translating Figma based design prototypes, with openness to closer, more iterative collaboration with designers.</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Familiar with CSS-in-JS libraries such as Styled Components.</span></li>\n<li><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">An advocate and implementer of industry best practices in frontend engineering including automated testing, using frameworks such as Jest and React Testing Library.<br></span><br></li>\n</ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold\">What will help you thrive in the Frontend Team</span></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p>Our product is technically demanding - built for domain experts who rely on it to do serious work. The frontend reflects that: a mature codebase, established patterns, and engineers who care about craft.</p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p>You will thrive here if you take ownership of your work end-to-end, find your own path to getting things done, and bring genuine curiosity to the problems in front of you.
