About this role
This frontend engineering role sits within SmartNews's Web Technology Team, which owns web products including in-app article reading, mobile web services, AI-powered content experiences, and the corporate site. The team standardizes web development practices to deliver high-quality services at speed.
The engineer designs, builds, and operates web services used by millions of people, while proposing what should be built rather than only implementing specifications. The work includes AI-assisted development and creating tools for business teams. Technologies and practices named in the posting include types, tests, static analysis, CI, and automated review, used to detect performance, security, maintainability, and implementation risks.
Applicants should be able to evaluate whether AI-generated implementations and architectures are fundamentally sound, identify risks that AI may miss, and build systems that surface errors automatically. The posting also requires a product mindset, ownership from concept through production operation, and the ability to move cross-team projects forward through communication.
