Job Description

Our consumer profile is a central part of a user's world and acts as a key entry point to their interests and contributions on our platform.
The Profiles team is focused on making profiles an open, safe and expressive part for all users, further encouraging growth in user contributions.
This is a high impact role where you will be involved in related technical and product strategy, operations, architecture and execution for a high traffic and large website.

What You'll Do:
Work cross-functionally with product, design, and other engineering counterparts to execute on product and business strategy and build novel products and features that our users will love.
Contribute to the full development cycle: technical design, development, test, experimentation, analysis, and launch. You'll be reviewing code and design docs, giving feedback on product specs and mocks.
Participate with a team of thoughtful, fast-moving, and motivated engineers. Contribute to standards that improve developer workflows, recommend best practices, and help mentor junior engineers on the team to grow their technical expertise.
Move fast while balancing quality. We can't afford extensive processes, and we also can't afford show-stopping bugs. We need someone who can balance speed with quality while quickly building brand-new products.

Qualifications for this role:
Minimum 5+ years of post-internship, full-time, hands-on, professional software development experience developing software in one or more front end focused programming languages; Javascript, Typescript, ES6.
Experience with one or more front-end web frameworks such as LIT, Polymer, React, Vue, or Angular with experience with CSS.
Experienced with GraphQL, REST, HTTP, Thrift basics, and the ability to design and implement maintainable APIs is a plus.
Experienced with distributed caching layers, and distributed large scale data storage systems.
Strong organizational skills, the ability to prioritize tasks and to deliver projects on schedule.
BS degree in Computer Science, a similar technical field of study or equivalent practical experience.
Entrepreneurial spirit. You are self-directed, innovative, and biased towards action in fast-paced environments. You love to build new things and thrive in ambiguity and even failure.
Excellent communication skills. You partner effectively with teams in a fully remote environment and discuss complex topics with technical and non-technical audiences.
