Senior Software Engineer

What you'll be doing

• You will deliver medium to large projects and features to our 2 Next.js applications. You will also write a full suite of automated tests with every new feature and bug fix to ensure production stability (unit, integration, e2e).
• You will be in charge of evaluating and articulating end-to-end designs for strengths and weaknesses (e.g., complexity, quality, scalability, security, performance, etc) as well as identifying tech debt and making recommendations on how to tackle it.
• You will work with and help mentor other engineers, help in designing solutions to problems, and communicate with leadership about the needs of the team.
• Lastly, you will uphold application performance, security, and standard methodologies within the team by providing constructive criticism during code reviews.

What would make you a strong fit for this role?

• We are looking for someone with at least 6 years of experience building frontend applications in production environments. You should be able to write clean, documented, and well-tested code.
• You have experience with Typescript.
• Ideally, you have worked with React or Next.js for the last 4 years. You should be very comfortable with React, you should know the standard methodologies and patterns, hooks, and suspense.
• You should also have experience with testing. At Side, we use Jest for unit tests and Cypress for End-to-end tests. You should have experience writing meaningful tests with both frameworks.
• On top of being a great frontend engineer, you have experience mentoring junior engineers who need help and guidance.
• It would be a plus if you have experience with GraphQL, security best practices, or accessibility but it is not required.
