We are looking for a passionate and skilled Principal Software Engineer who thrives in a hands-on technical role with a focus on owning the quality of the code and systems they develop. The ideal candidate will be responsible for driving the end-to-end delivery of features and systems, ensuring high standards of quality, performance, and maintainability throughout the development lifecycle. If you are committed to shipping reliable and scalable solutions, and enjoy solving complex problems, this is the role for you. 

Responsibilities: 

End-to-End Development: Own the design, development, testing, deployment, and support of features and services from concept to delivery. 

Quality Ownership: Ensure high code quality, performance, and maintainability by following best practices and conducting thorough code reviews, automated testing, and performance monitoring. 

Collaboration: Work closely with cross-functional teams, including product managers, designers, and fellow engineers, to define and deliver features that meet both business and technical objectives. 

Continuous Improvement: Proactively identify areas for improvement within the codebase, infrastructure, and development process. Drive solutions that increase team efficiency and code quality. 

System Reliability: Monitor the health and performance of services and ensure timely resolution of issues and bugs. 

Technical Innovation: Stay current with new technologies and trends to ensure the systems you build are modern, scalable, and aligned with industry best practices. 

Required Qualifications: 

Frontend Expertise: Strong experience in building, designing, and front-end applications using React with functional components. A required candidate will have experience in using UI libraries (e.g. ShadcnUI, Radix, MUI) and meta-frameworks (e.g. NextJS, Remix)  

TypeScript Expertise: Experience with TypeScript, including advanced types and type-checking techniques and strong understanding of using the language with React. 

Asynchronous Programming: Familiarity with promises, async/await, and event-driven architecture. 

Testing and Debugging: Knowledge of testing frameworks (e.g., Jest, Vitest, React Testing Library) and debugging tools. 

Code Quality and Standards: Understanding of code linting & formatting, and adherence to best practices (e.g. writing clean, maintainable, and well-documented code, following best practices such as TDD, unit testing, and code reviews). 

Version Control: Experience with Git and collaborative development workflows (e.g. GitHub, GitLab). 

Security Best Practices: Awareness of security standards, such as OAuth, JWT, and data encryption. 

Performance Optimization: Experience in pragmatically optimizing code for performance, scalability, and efficiency. 

Effective Communication: Capable of clearly communicating technical concepts to team members and stakeholders. 

Strong Problem-Solving Skills: Ability to troubleshoot issues and optimize backend performance. 

Agile Methodologies: Familiarity with Agile development practices, including Scrum and Kanban. 

CI/CD Pipelines: Knowledge of continuous integration and deployment tools (e.g. GitHub Actions, Jenkins, CircleCI). 

Desired Qualifications: 

Ownership Mindset: Passion for taking full ownership of features and ensuring their quality from concept through to production. 

Performance and Optimization: Experience with profiling applications, identifying bottlenecks, and optimizing performance for scale. 

Collaboration Skills: Comfortable working in a collaborative, Agile environment, with an emphasis on communication and team success. 

While this is a frontend-focused role, a candidate may be required to assist in backend Node environment-related tasks from time-to-time. This requires, but is not limited to knowledge in: 

  • API Development: Skilled in designing and building RESTful and/or GraphQL APIs. 
  • Database Management: Experience with relational databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL) and/or NoSQL databases (e.g., MongoDB, Redis).  
  • Cloud platforms (e.g. AWS, Google Cloud, Azure) and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes)
