- Build responsive, accessible, usable interfaces and diagnose performance, reliability, browser compatibility, API, and desktop integration issues.
- Own automated quality through unit, component, integration, API, and end-to-end testing, including CI/CD quality gates.
- Lead technical design and code reviews, establish engineering practices, explain trade-offs, and mentor engineers.
- Own features from design through implementation, testing, delivery, and support while addressing maintainability, scalability, security, and reliability risks.
- Collaborate with back-end, UX, quality, product, application science, and distributed teams.
Requirements
- Strong production experience with modern Angular and TypeScript, including components, directives, services, dependency injection, routing, route guards, Reactive Forms, and HttpClient.
- Strong RxJS and reactive programming skills, including Observables, operators, error handling, Angular lifecycle, change detection, lazy loading, modularization, and performance optimization.
