• Lead frontend initiatives across multiple teams, aligning direction and ensuring consistency.
• Evaluate and introduce new technologies and practices that strengthen our frontend development.

• Document technical decisions and make sure the “why” is clear to everyone.
• Contribute to improving our CI/CD processes and deployment workflows.

• 7+ years of experience in frontend or fullstack development, ideally within a SaaS product company.
• Strong coding skills in JavaScript and TypeScript, with hands-on experience in modern frameworks (we currently use Preact).

• Familiarity with cloud environments (especially AWS).
• Skilled at fostering cross-functional collaboration and positively influencing outcomes without formal authority.
• Familiar with and curious about how AI can enhance both our products and processes
