UI SENIOR ENGINEER

Project Area: Legal Management Solutions

As a Lead UI Engineer, you will build high-quality software delivering feature sets that delight customers while driving the UI architecture and backend orchestration layer towards our aspirational goal of everything being ‘well-crafted’. You will work with product, design, and the other engineers on your team to drive clarity into the UI design and development process.

• Be part of an autonomous, cross-functional team designing, building and operating strategic, user-focused feature sets.
• Work on a modern ‘micro-frontend’ architecture designed to facilitate the development of high-quality software across multiple high-velocity, independent teams.
• Build a highly responsive Document Viewer that supports multiple native file types (PDF, Excel, Video, etc.) while providing easy-to-use facilities to augment the data with complex, domain-specific work product.
• Create an intuitive facility for users to build complex search queries that remain responsive while spanning terabytes of data.
• Help lesser experienced team members decompose problems into subparts (i.e., divide and conquer) and understand how the parts synthesize into a solution.
• Maintain a well-groomed backlog.
• Coordinate with Product Management to ensure dependencies can be satisfied across teams and functionality.
• Using technical or business context, mentor engineers by turning ambiguity into clarity.

• 7+ years of front-end development experience.
• Advanced JavaScript/ES6 knowledge, 5+ years of SPA development using modern UI frameworks and advanced CSS techniques.
• Enjoy the challenges of architecting a ‘micro-frontend’ architecture that does not compromise UX and end-user performance SLAs.
• Experience designing and implementing a layered application architecture that can be easily changed to accommodate evolving business requirements.
• Experience designing and communicating external and internal architectural perspectives of well-encapsulated systems.

• You have experience in startup environments delivering high-quality solutions.
• You have experience using Feature or Release Toggles as a code branching strategy.
• You have experience identifying, selecting and extending 3rd party components (commercial or open-source) that provide operational leverage.
• You have experience with Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment environments with an emphasis on a well-maintained testing pyramid.

• Cloud Provider – AWS: EC2, Lambda, Aurora, Redshift, DynamoDB, ECS, SQS, SNS, Kinesis, S3, CloudFront, CloudFormation, SageMaker, KMS, CodePipeline, etc.

• Event Bus: Kafka and Schema Registry
• 3rd Party Vendors: Redis, Auth0 for Cloud Identity Federation (SSO, SAML, etc)
• AI: MinHash, FastText, Word2Vec, Convolution Neural Nets, Algorithmia (Lambda with GPUs) for training, PyTorch, Recurrent Neural Networks, Latent Dirichlet Allocation for Topic Modeling, etc.
• Deployment: Terraform, Docker (via ECS), Consul for App Config, Service Discovery, Shared Secrets
• Visibility: ELK Stack for logging, Datadog, New Relic, Sentry.io
• Programming Languages: Python, JavaScript, C#/.NET, Java
• Transport Mechanisms: Protobuf, Avro, HTTP Rest/JSON
• CI/CD: Jenkins, CodePipeline, GitHub, Artifactory
