The build and CI system for a large frontend monorepo with millions of lines of code and hundreds of active developers.
Core infrastructure required to develop and serve our frontends, including feature flags, internationalisation, and commit previews.
A GraphQL API for declarative data loading, spanning many underlying services.

Core Responsibilities
Design tools and infrastructure that make it easy for developers to build performant applications.
Identify the most pressing issues affecting our frontend developers and advocate for potential solutions.

What We Value
Passion for helping other developers build better applications.
Empathy for the impact your changes will have on the workflows and productivity of developers and end users.
Demonstrated ability to design solutions that balance complexity and ongoing maintenance cost against value to the developer and end user.
Eagerness to delve into the source code of open-source libraries (such Webpack or Chromium) to truly understand how they work or to debug an issue.
Staying up-to-date with recent industry practices and advancements in open-source technology.
In-depth knowledge of web technologies and/or build systems is preferred, but not required.

2+ years of software engineering experience.
Strong coding skills, with demonstrated proficiency in JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, C++, Python, or another similar programming language.
