Job Description

• Build and maintain scalable, reliable frontend systems to power the Chromatic product. • Own projects from conception to completion, breaking down features into discrete units of work and maintaining momentum toward delivery. • Work cross-functionally at Chromatic to ensure feature continuity between Chromatic and Storybook and ship work that delights developers. • Continuously improve existing systems by identifying opportunities for optimization, refactoring, and modernization. • Participate in the team's support rotation, which is primarily within business hours. • Stay ahead of emerging trends in frontend architecture and developer tooling, identifying opportunities to enhance the platform.

Job Requirements

5+ years of hands-on frontend engineering experience building web applications with React, Next.js, and TypeScript, with a test-driven and accessibility-first mindset.
Self-directed problem solver who can scope work, communicate progress, flag blockers early, and make sound technical and product trade-offs independently while staying aligned with stakeholders.
Strong opinions, weakly held—someone who pushes back on ideas to drive better outcomes, handles critique without defensiveness, and demonstrates a growth mindset.
Clear written and verbal communicator who provides straightforward, self-contained updates with necessary context in our distributed, asynchronous environment.
Focused executor who stays accountable to commitments, resists distractions, and delivers consistent progress even when things don't go as planned.
Genuinely invested in developer experience, whether you've shipped tools for developers or spent years deeply understanding frontend teams' pain points.
