• Foster collaboration across engineering teams to create reusable, scalable solutions, contributing to architecture blueprints that benefit the entire organization.
• Lead projects by defining timelines, managing scope, overseeing development, and ensuring quality
• Contribute to a culture of continuous improvement by actively participating in sprint ceremonies and process refinement
• Participate in a community of practice (guild) around how our frontend ecosystem is architected, developed, tested, deployed, and released. Foster the community’s creativity, innovation, and learning.

• Deep knowledge and ability to navigate all aspects of front-end development, with 6+ years of active web and/or mobile development experience with React, React Native and Typescript
• Demonstrated ability to be a team player as well as a top-level individual contributor in a cross-functional environment, collaborating with engineers, designers and product managers
• Work across the stack (React Native, Native iOS/Android, Graph
  
  QL API, CI/Build systems)
• Familiarity with modern front-end build pipelines and tooling and web front end technologies and frameworks
• Strong communication skills, with the ability to articulate design decisions and rationale
• Desire to drive engineering culture within your immediate team, as well as within the larger organization
• Strong leadership skills and the ability to work with cross-functional partners to define requirements, manage scope, and execute on software projects
