The Role

We are seeking exceptional Senior Fullstack Engineers with deep expertise in client‑side development to build our next‑generation merchant experience platform. This role primarily focuses on client‑side SDK development, multi‑tenant architecture, enterprise integration frameworks and high‑performance frontend systems. You will also contribute strategically to backend systems, including data modeling, infrastructure planning, and scalable deployment architecture. This role is ideally based in Seattle, the Bay Area, or Austin, with flexibility for exceptional candidates.

What you’ll own

Client‑Side Platform & SDK Development – Design and implement reusable, distributed JavaScript/CSS SDK frameworks that enable seamless merchant integration across diverse retail environments. Build scalable multi‑tenant frontend architecture that supports enterprise‑grade customization and performance.

Frontend Engineering – Develop high‑performance, scalable, and accessible web applications using React, Next.js, and Tailwind CSS. Implement modern rendering strategies (SSR, SSG, ISR) to ensure optimal SEO and performance.

API & Backend Integration – Partner with backend engineers to integrate frontend logic with RESTful APIs and GraphQL services. Ensure secure, resilient communication between client‑side SDKs and backend systems.

Performance & Scalability Optimization – Drive performance improvements through code splitting, lazy loading, image optimization, caching strategies, and runtime efficiency tuning.

Code Quality & Standards – Write clean, maintainable, and reusable code. Enforce best practices for accessibility, SEO, modular architecture, and automated testing.

Backend & Infrastructure Support – Contribute to data modeling, database schema design, infrastructure planning, and cloud deployment (AWS/GCP). Support CI/CD processes and production monitoring.
