  • At least 5 years of experience with semantic HTML5, CSS preprocessors (LESS and Sass), and modern UI frameworks.
  • At least 5 years of experience with JavaScript/TypeScript frameworks (React, Angular, or Vue), consuming RESTful and GraphQL APIs, and modern build/test tooling (Vite/Webpack, Jest/Vitest, Playwright/Cypress).
  • At least 5 years of experience with responsive design and multi-platform/multi-browser compatibility across current evergreen browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge).
  • Hands-on experience building components on Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) or an equivalent enterprise content management system/digital experience platform.
  • Hands-on experience using generative AI coding assistants (e.g., GitHub Copilot or Cursor) to accelerate development, with sound judgment about when to trust versus verify AI-generated code.
  • Proven experience working independently as the senior or lead developer on a project and coaching and guiding other engineers.
  • Experience conducting code reviews and enforcing software development lifecycle standards on complex projects.
  • A minimum of a high school diploma or GED is required.

Responsibilities

  • Own front-end technical design and quality for a product/domain, translating creative and user experience direction into scalable, accessible HTML5/CSS/JavaScript (TypeScript) implementations across desktop and mobile.
  • Set the technical patterns and code-review standards the squad follows for cross-browser and cross-platform compatibility, performance, and accessibility.
  • Work independently as the senior or lead front-end developer, coaching and guiding engineers within the area of expertise.
  • Communicate frequently and directly with clients on project plans and scope.
  • Hold overall accountability for delivery of front-end solution design and deliverables.
  • Conduct code reviews to ensure quality, standards compliance, reusability, and maintainability.
  • Provide technical support for escalated incidents and outages to minimize client impact.
  • Rapidly prototype new concepts through self-initiated proofs of concept, including using generative AI coding tools such as GitHub Copilot and Claude Code in the day-to-day development workflow.
  • Build and maintain highly accessible, high-performing components on Adobe Experience Manager (AEM), partnering with design teams to translate specifications into production front-end code.
  • Explore generative AI-powered product features, such as generative image tooling for background removal, resizing, reframing, and cropping, alongside core front-end work.
  • Make sound technical decisions when there is no clear answer and defend them to clients and teammates.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience working at an advertising, design, or consulting agency or web startup.
  • Experience building generative AI-powered product features on Adobe's stack (e.g., Firefly-style generative image APIs) or a comparable generative AI product integration.
  • Experience creating project estimates, defining scope requirements, and structuring projects.
  • Strong communication and organizational skills and the ability to work in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment, both internally and with clients.
