Member of Technical Staff – Frontend

Overview

About the role

You will be a key early hire joining our frontend engineering team. You will pair your natural design instincts with a strong foundation in Javascript/React/Angular to build an intuitive, user-friendly experience that engineers, data scientists, and business analysts leverage every day. Our customers rely on the Chronosphere platform to visualize and manage the complex metrics that underlie their business, and you will be creating the interface that is critical to their success.

You will

• Build rich and intuitive interfaces using Javascript and React.
• Use GraphQL and other strongly typed APIs to communicate with back-end services.
• Partner with product leaders and designers to design amazing customer experiences.

What you will achieve

In the first month, you will build a deep understanding of Chronosphere’s business and platform and begin contributing to the product. You will have time to learn about the space, our customer’s needs, and the underlying technology.

Within 90 days, you will have shipped customer facing features and contributed to designs that shape the direction of the product. You will be a key contributor to our user experience, often leading critical customer facing projects in partnership with design and product.

You have

• The ability to independently own projects from inception to delivery (i.e. plan and gather requirements, collaborate with Product)
• Pre-existing experience on how to build high scale systems and experience with building sophisticated application services
• A passion for growing and up-leveling your peers, and have pre-existing mentoring experience and a nuanced view around how to help junior engineers grow
• Strong Javascript / Typescript skills and familiarity with modern Javascript frameworks such as React and Vue.
• Experience working on complex frontend products targeting technical customers, with exposure to infrastructure systems and data visualization frameworks such as d3 or visjs. Our platform targets analytical customers working with complex datasets, and a background with similar types of products is important to understanding their needs.
• An excellent sense for good experience and visual design. You’ll be working closely with the product and design team, and will be key to shaping our user experience.
• A flexible, collaborative working style. We’re a small team working in a rapidly evolving space. We’re looking for people that will help build a positive, supportive environment.
