• Develop reusable UI components, design systems, shared libraries, and internal service frameworks.
• Build and integrate APIs (REST, GraphQL, event-driven and microservices architectures).

Performance, Quality & Reliability

• Ensure applications meet the highest standards of performance, security, accessibility, and reliability.
• Lead automated testing across unit, integration, contract, and end-to-end layers.
• Implement observability in both front-end and back-end systems, including logging, metrics, tracing, and alerting.
• Champion reliability engineering practices and performance optimization.

Automation & Platform Engineering

• Contribute to and evolve CI/CD pipelines, build tooling, infrastructure automation, and quality gates.
• Drive engineering standardization across STOs, including coding guidelines, architectural patterns, and platform abstractions.
• Lead initiatives that reduce friction, improve developer experience, and accelerate delivery cycles.

Technical Leadership & Innovation

• Partner with designers, architects, product managers, and engineers to ensure the technical direction aligns with long-term platform goals.
• Partner directly with designers and your team’s Product Manager to evaluate the technical feasibility of new capabilities and provide effort estimations.
• Foster a high-ownership engineering culture through active mentorship and by setting the bar for code quality and testing layers.
• Lead explorations of new technologies, including agentic AI enablement, data-driven UX, programmable networks, and developer tooling.
• Contribute to reference implementations, architectural blueprints, and engineering guardrails.
• Identify technical risks early in the product lifecycle and propose pragmatic solutions to mitigate them.

Requirements Must Have

• Strong proficiency with JavaScript & TypeScript and back-end languages (.NET must, Node.js or Python preferred).
• Expertise in modern front-end frameworks (React, Vue, or Angular).
• Knowledge of component-based architecture, state-management patterns (Redux, Zustand, Vuex, etc.).
• Experience building and consuming REST, GraphQL, streaming/event-driven APIs, and microservices.
• Familiarity with modern build tools (Vite, Webpack, Babel) and CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab, Azure DevOps, etc.).
• Experience with CSS frameworks (Tailwind, Bulma, MUI, Chakra).
• Strong understanding of automated testing (Jest, Cypress, Playwright).
• Solid grounding in accessibility (WCAG), security best practices, observability, and performance tuning.
• Experience with cloud environments (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
• Experience working with Salesforce.
• Experience leading technical decision-making and mentoring experienced engineers.

Nice to Have

• Exposure to agentic AI, data-driven UI architectures, or AI-powered developer tools (Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot).
• Experience with design systems, component libraries, or Storybook.
• Familiarity with programmable networks, observability tooling, or network automation concepts.
• Understanding of advanced security practices (CSP, threat modeling, RBAC patterns, dependency scanning).
• Experience in distributed systems or event-driven architectures.

Mindset

• You treat the product as your own and prioritize long-term stability over short-term "hacks".
• Code-first and automation-first approach to solving problems.
• You are eager to work across the full stack and stay curious about the evolving tech landscape.

Benefits What We Offer

• A dynamic, international work environment with growth opportunities
• Exposure to cutting-edge technologies and large-scale global networks
• Learning and development support to build your career in product management
• Competitive compensation and local benefits
