Description

You would join the Search Funnel team, which owns the core buyer journey.

This is a full stack role with real ownership of high-traffic systems, key parts of the user experience, and business outcomes.

It suits an engineer who already uses GenAI to lift their own productivity and wants to shape a large organization.

Engineering changes quickly and everyone keeps learning, so you do not need to know everything.

Curiosity and a steady drive to learn and grow matter most, and you would help the team become AI-first.

Stack: frontend with React, TypeScript and Zustand; backend with Node.js, Java and REST APIs; infrastructure on AWS (EC2, S3, SQS and more) with CI/CD through GitHub Actions; observability with Datadog; plus an internal experimentation platform, analytics tooling and feature flag systems.

Responsibilities

  • Lead feature development across a team of strong fullstack engineers using React, TypeScript, Node.js, Java and Next.js.
  • Make key technical decisions, set code design standards and keep the system healthy over the long term with the team.
  • Build and maintain a modular monolith that is clean, scalable and durable.
  • Take an AI-first approach at every stage of you-build-it-you-run-it, from design and coding to testing, deployment and operations.
  • Work hands-on in real product codebases, such as TypeScript, Node or Next.js, or Java with Spring, using GenAI tools to move faster, raise quality and simplify current systems.
  • Improve frontend speed, with a focus on Core Web Vitals and user experience.
  • Design cloud backend services that are efficient, observable and ready for production.
  • Run A/B experiments, measure performance and make data-informed decisions.
  • Mentor engineers across the team and build a high-performance engineering culture.

Requirements

  • 10+ years of engineering experience.
  • Led teams of 5+ people in recent years.
  • Deep knowledge of JavaScript/TypeScript, React and Node.js.
  • Experience applying sound code design principles.
  • Built and run high-traffic applications in a product-focused setting.
  • Demonstrated excellence in using GenAI coding tools, preferably Codex, to clearly speed up and improve your own work.
  • Have integrated LLM APIs such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure OpenAI, Vertex AI or similar into production applications.
  • Strong grasp of frontend performance, SEO and Core Web Vitals.
  • Comfortable with experimentation, feature flags and data-driven iteration.
  • Clear communicator and natural mentor who can guide technical decisions and grow people.
  • Solid Java backend skills and knowledge of distributed systems. Scala is a plus.
  • Experience with marketplace platforms or high-visibility consumer products.
  • Familiar with frontend architecture at scale, including routing, state and modular UI design.
  • Have contributed to frontend or backend tooling, testing approaches or performance profiling.

Conditions

The company has people from over 50 nationalities and welcomes all backgrounds, working to make everyone feel included.

Benefits

  • Tools, training and support to work in a way that suits you, learn new skills and reach your potential.
  • A culture that values growth.
