Collaborate closely with backend engineers, Product, UX, Security, and Technical Writing to ship iterative, well-scoped improvements that meaningfully enhance knowledge management workflows.
Mentor and coach frontend engineers on the team, improving code quality, testing practices, and technical decision-making through thoughtful pairing, reviews, and documentation.
Improve frontend test coverage and reliability using automated testing, monitoring, and debugging practices that prevent regressions and reduce incidents in production.

Experience designing, reviewing, and shipping iterative, user-facing features in close collaboration with Product, UX, Security, and backend engineering partners
Demonstrated ability to mentor other engineers, give and receive constructive feedback in code review, and help teams break down complex problems into shippable iterations
Comfortable working in a fully remote, asynchronous environment with clear written communication, thorough documentation, and an ownership mindset
