About the Role
We’re hiring a Senior Software Engineer – Product (UX) to join our User Experience team in a frontend-leaning full-stack role.
This role is ideal for someone who loves working deeply in the frontend — building polished, high-quality user experiences — and who’s also comfortable making product changes that extend to our core backend, while contributing to broader architectural decisions in a large, long-lived product codebase.
From your first week, you’ll be contributing to technical and product discussions, working closely with product leadership to turn ideas into high-quality, user-focused features. Over time, you’ll take ownership of major user-facing areas, help define frontend best practices, mentor other engineers, and influence the long-term direction of our product.
While this isn’t a pure full-stack role, you’ll have exposure to backend systems and work closely across teams to deliver thoughtful, scalable solutions.
