Senior Front End Developer

Traffic during holiday peaks can reach ten times normal levels, and the platform is built for it. Our engineering, trust and safety, and customer support teams work across offices in Los Angeles and several other countries. Core hours are 10 to 3, and the rest of the day is flexible.

The position:

Part of this job is rebuilding an older AngularJS front end in React. Some of that work is unglamorous migration, and we won't pretend otherwise.

Day to day:

• Review frontend pull requests and keep coding conventions consistent
• Fix accessibility issues and test with VoiceOver and NVDA against WCAG 2.1 AA
• Build UI features in React and TypeScript from Figma designs
• Work with designers to adjust interactions when something doesn't hold up in the browser
• Pair with backend engineers on API contracts before work starts
• Integrate with REST and GraphQL APIs and handle loading, error and empty states properly
• Add analytics events and help product read the results

What you need:

• 5+ years building production web applications
• Deep working knowledge of React (hooks, context, rendering behaviour)
• Familiarity with accessibility standards and semantic markup
• A good eye for spacing, alignment and small visual details

Preferred:

• Next.js or Remix with server-side rendering
• Figma, including Dev Mode

Compensation: $2,800-$3,800 monthly

Why work with us:

• Paid in USD
• Monthly internet allowance
• Monthly payments via wire transfer or Wise

We may close this posting early once we have enough applications.

Duration: 3 months. Start: Flexible.
