What you'll do

  • Set the technical direction for the micro-frontend architecture, module federation, and migration paths for the forms platform.
  • Own the end-to-end schema contracts for form experiences, including definition, validation, and backward-compatibility strategies.
  • Develop a renderer that converts schemas into accessible, performant UI without requiring code changes per field type.
  • Drive operational excellence by establishing SLOs, real-user performance monitoring, and structured client-side telemetry.
  • Lead the full software lifecycle including scoping, design, implementation, testing, documentation, and long-term maintenance.
  • Contribute to the design system by developing component APIs, design tokens, and theming for third-party embedding.
  • Ensure WCAG 2.2 AA conformance by integrating automated accessibility checks into the CI pipeline.
  • Provide technical leadership through design reviews, pairing, and written architecture guidance for other engineers.

What we're looking for

  • Significant experience designing and implementing maintainable, performant, and observable frontend architectures at scale.
  • Experience building or evolving production micro-frontend architectures with shared dependency strategies and cross-team contracts.
  • Deep expertise in schema-driven UI, including JSON Schema, dynamic form rendering, and declarative validation.
  • Proficiency in modern JavaScript/TypeScript and a major component framework (React preferred).
  • Strong knowledge of software engineering fundamentals, including CI/CD, testing strategies, instrumentation, and incident response.
  • Ability to ensure WCAG 2.2 AA conformance and design-system consistency as part of the definition of done.
  • Clear written communication skills for creating design docs, ADRs, and review comments.
  • Experience with widgets/SDKs embedded in third-party sites, large-scale monolith-to-modular migrations, edge rendering, or design-system stewardship (preferred).
