Job Description
Role Description
We’re hiring a Front-End Web Engineer to own our next-generation marketing and content infrastructure. You’ll lead the transition from WordPress to a modern composable stack, define how our marketing site is built, deployed, cached, and kept online, and serve as the bridge between our marketing, design, and infrastructure teams.
We’re building a fast, reliable, and scalable web platform that lets our marketing team ship independently while maintaining engineering quality. You’ll own that vision end-to-end.
Key Responsibilities:
- Build and maintain a component-driven marketing site using modern front-end frameworks and Islands Architecture principles.
- Lead the WordPress migration: content modeling, redirect strategy, author enablement, and SEO preservation.
- Own site performance end-to-end: Core Web Vitals, build optimization, edge caching, and hydration discipline.
- Partner with infrastructure to design caching rules and static failover strategies so the site stays up even when dependencies don’t.
- Translate Figma designs into reusable, governed components that non-engineers can safely compose and publish.
- Operate the headless CMS layer and visual editing tools, ensuring clean boundaries between content, presentation, and application logic.
- Own Google Tag Manager (including server-side containers) and Consent Management Platform implementation.
- Partner with analytics on site health reporting, conversion metrics, and SEO workflows.
Qualifications
- 3+ years shipping production web applications with a front-end focus.
- Strong command of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript/TypeScript. Not just framework usage, but what’s happening underneath.
- Real-world performance debugging: reading waterfalls, tracing render-blocking resources, diagnosing layout shifts in production.
- Proficiency in at least one modern component framework (React, Vue, Svelte, or similar) at a level where you could pick up a new one independently.
- Production experience with at least one headless CMS. The platform matters less than understanding content modeling and API-driven delivery.
- Hands-on technical SEO: structured data, crawl budget, redirect strategy.
- Strong cross-functional communication. You’ll operate across marketing, design, infrastructure, and leadership daily.
Requirements
- Experience with Astro, Islands Architecture, or partial hydration patterns.
- Experience with visual page builders (Builder.io, Webflow, or similar).
- Experience leading a CMS migration while preserving SEO equity.
- Familiarity with edge compute: Cloudflare Workers, CDN configuration.
- Google Tag Manager (server-side), consent management platforms, GA4, or Google Search Console.
- Component library or design system governance.
Benefits
- Salary Range: $100,000 - $160,000 DOE.
- This position offers a competitive salary between $100,000 and $160,000, depending upon experience and qualifications.
- Salary may vary by location based on factors, including the cost of living.
- We are committed to paying our employees fairly and providing opportunities for professional growth and development.
