Description The JavaScriptCore team in WebKit is responsible for the JavaScriptCore engine, and our mission is to make JavaScript and WebAssembly execution both fast and secure. JavaScriptCore engineers work on all aspects of the engine: the compilation pipeline, the language runtime, the garbage collector, and the API for native apps. The compilation pipeline consists of the parser, the bytecode frontend, profile-guided type profiling, and multiple optimizing compiler backend that turn JS and Wasm programs into efficient ARM and x86 machine code. In this role, you will work across all areas of the engine, improving the performance, security, and stability of the engine, as well as compatibility with other browsers. You will also help guide the evolution of the JavaScript and WebAssembly languages via public standards. You will drive new innovations, add new optimizations, tune performance, implement language features, in addition to diagnosing and fixing existing problems.
