  • Establish reusable patterns for APIs, frontend architecture, data, and cloud services through working code and code review.
  • Improve component architecture, state management, performance, testing, and API integration across a large web application.
  • Apply generative AI where it solves a real product or operational problem, accounting for evaluation, cost, latency, safety, and fallback behavior.
  • Mentor engineers and guide technical decisions across teams while continuing to write a substantial share of the code.
Required Experience
  • Deep C#/.NET expertise and strong, recent, hands-on React and TypeScript experience.
  • Production code shipped personally in both backend and frontend systems within the past 6-12 months.
  • Typically 8-12 years of software engineering experience, including approximately two or more years leading the technical direction of a product area.
  • Experience designing and building distributed systems on AWS, including APIs, event-driven services, messaging, data stores, caching, CI/CD, and observability.
  • Demonstrated technical influence across multiple teams through architecture, shared standards, code review, and mentoring.
  • Advanced experience with React/TypeScript component design, state management, API integration, performance, testing, and large single-page applications.
  • Hands-on experience shipping a production AI or ML integration, such as an LLM API, RAG workflow, vector search, model inference, or AI agent.
Strongly Preferred
  • Experience with multi-tenant SaaS platforms or CMS and administrative products.
  • Familiarity with media, streaming, OTT, or publishing.
  • Measurable results from introducing AI into product or engineering workflows, with an understanding of evaluation and failure modes.
  • Experience improving a large existing React application incrementally.
  • A track record of expanding technical influence beyond one team while remaining hands-on.
  • Exposure to native mobile or connected TV applications.
  • Experience with CloudFormation or Terraform and close collaboration with DevOps teams.
The Offer:
  • 200-230K Base Salary
  • Bonus incentives 50/50 individual and company
