Description

• Backstage is seeking a remote Senior Frontend Engineer to join our passionate web team. • Our frontend web team consists of six engineers, and includes mid and senior level engineers, a tech lead, and an engineering manager. • This team is a part of Backstage’s larger product and engineering department, which numbers approximately thirty high-performance engineers, designers, product managers, analysts, and quality assurance resources. • We value curiosity, trust, and impact, and we foster a culture of constant learning and improvement where teammates work together to accomplish user-focused initiatives. • Our process is a modified Kanban process with the goal of delivering incremental value to the customer. • Products are workshopped and then broken into milestones, with estimates driven by engineers, not managers. • We uphold autonomy and trust our engineers to pick the best tools suited for their tasks, while working collaboratively towards mutual goals. • In line with our goal to continue delivering value to the customer, we release multiple times a day, every day, and adhere to a robust QA and code review process before any code is released. • As a Senior Frontend Engineer, you will be working with cutting edge technology and new product development in a stable and rapidly growing company. • This is an individual contributor role, and you will be empowered to make your own decisions about implementations and given autonomy to complete your work at your own pace.
