Framework Ownership: Set the technical vision for our internal application framework stack – both server-side and client-side –, defining conventions, project archetypes, and lifecycle management for libraries and tooling.
Front-End Architecture: Define and evolve our front-end stack (React, Next.js, or successor frameworks), establishing patterns for server-side rendering, client-side rendering, and hybrid approaches that balance performance, SEO and developer experience.
Platform Engineering: Design, build, and maintain core platform components mainly in javascript and TypeScript, enabling product teams to ship quality code quickly and safely.
Architecture & Standards: Champion best practices, standards, and review and approve RFCs that impact how we deploy code company-wide. For example: Observability, security, and performance best practices.
Mentorship & Leadership: Serve as technical referent for a multi-disciplinary platform team; coach engineers, run architecture reviews, and foster a culture of continuous improvement.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work with Security, and Infrastructure teams to align roadmaps, manage technical debt, and ensure platform capabilities meet business needs.
Continuous Improvement: Track industry trends, evaluate new technologies and pilot innovations that keep our platform ahead of scale and compliance demands.
