You'll face some of the toughest but most rewarding challenges of your career. They're worth it. Channeling your inner grit will accelerate your growth, help us win as a team, and create unforgettable moments for our customers. As a Senior Frontend Engineer on our Gamification team, you'll take a crucial role in building engaging, high-quality user experiences that drive interaction and long-term user motivation. You'll work closely with product, design, and engineering partners to craft intuitive and scalable interfaces. As a senior engineer, you'll contribute to technical strategy, set high standards for frontend development, and help grow the team's capabilities through mentorship and collaboration.

Key Responsibilities

Contribute to the development of complex, user-facing features using React and modern web technologies.
Collaborate with product managers, designers, and backend engineers to build engaging and intuitive gamification systems.
Architect scalable frontend systems with a strong emphasis on performance, accessibility, and maintainability.
Implement reusable components and design patterns that support rapid iteration and long-term scalability.
Continuously improve the frontend codebase by identifying areas for optimization, refactoring, and modernization.
Write and maintain high-quality unit, integration, and end-to-end tests to ensure reliability and maintainability.
Provide technical mentorship to teammates and contribute to code reviews, documentation, and team knowledge sharing.
Stay informed on emerging frontend technologies and advocate for the adoption of tools and techniques that improve developer experience and product quality.

Requirements

4+ years of experience in Frontend Engineering, with deep expertise in React and modern JavaScript/TypeScript.
Solid understanding of performance optimization, responsive design, accessibility, and cross-browser compatibility.
Experience working closely with design tools such as Figma or Adobe XD.
Familiarity with REST APIs and how to effectively integrate them into frontend applications.
Comfortable working in cloud-based environments with tools like AWS and Docker (basic familiarity is sufficient).
Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to make thoughtful tradeoffs in UI/UX design and implementation.
Experience collaborating in agile teams and mentoring other engineers through code reviews and technical guidance.
Experience working on gamification features or consumer-facing products with high user engagement - an advantage.
