The Role
We are looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer who specializes in frontend performance tuning and optimization. You will join the Viewer team, which is responsible for delivering high-traffic experiences across search, video, site navigation, and other core areas of our platform.
This role requires deeper performance expertise than a typical frontend engineering position. You will investigate how browsers execute and render our applications, profile production bottlenecks, analyze memory usage, and identify the code paths causing delays or instability. As the role evolves, you may have opportunities to apply your expertise to other high-impact frontend experiences and help shape how we approach performance across Engineering.
What You’ll Do
- Diagnosing, triaging, and leading to resolution issues involving unnecessary renders, long tasks, memory leaks, forced reflows, layout shifts, expensive painting, and excessive JavaScript execution.
- Define and improve measurable performance targets using real-user monitoring, Lighthouse, synthetic testing, Chrome DevTools traces, and product-level business metrics.
- Establish performance budgets, dashboards, and alerts
- Raise the performance capabilities of the broader organization through technical talks, workshops, documentation, mentoring, code reviews, and reusable tooling.
