An ode to our Senior Frontend Engineers clears throat*
To us, you are like Leonardo da Vinci. A scientist, an artist, an engineer, a theorist, sculptor and architect. Out of your creative mind sprang a desire to understand how things work behind the scenes.
It's a little like fractals in nature. There is a mysterious mathematical complexity behind them, but most people only see a pretty pattern. You, dear frontender, see the link between them. You are interested in the mathematics underneath the beauty, you want to understand why the mathematics produces something that is beautiful, and you have appreciation for the thing that is beautiful.
You tackle complex technical challenges and create elegant solutions for our end users. You work closely with our Designers and Product Managers to create the user experience – and you never just get handed a design without having key creative input. You constantly build reusable components for the entire system. You are excited by making a dropdown menu that solves for any kind of use cases we might want to create in the UI. You do all this not just by being a master of your craft, but by taking ownership and leading on large projects such as product launches. Mostly, we look up to you and learn from you, because you set the standard for the team, not just in code but in culture too.
In short, you blow our minds every single day

You care deeply about product and design
You are proactive and confident in your skills
You can work in a lean environment
You can organize work across teams

Linting and testing frameworks (we use Jest + RTL and Cypress)
Static types (we use TypeScript)
Data fetching and mutations (we use tRPC, SWR)
Tooling for frontend teams and shared component systems (we use Storybook)
Your colleagues say you Work in English with ease (it's our company language)
Never stop being curious and love learning about new languages/ frameworks/ working styles
Accidentally start sentences with npm because you're so used to typing it
Evangelise ES6, ECMAScript 2018, ES2022, or know better than we do what the newest standard is
Have experience solving complex technical challenges at scale
Ensure a high bar for quality and reliability on your team
Coach others on your team to help them develop as engineers
Advocate for a more thorough code review process than a quick scroll to the bottom of the page and a "LGTM!"
You don't just write code, you help to design the overall solution
Would be a person that they would actually like to have a coffee with (virtual or not)
Somehow find a way to debate the merits of server vs client side rendering in that aforementioned coffee chat
