📋 Description

• Design, build, and ship high-quality features across the stack, with a focus on creating reusable, maintainable UI components and polished frontends that scale with the platform • Contribute to backend systems to deliver cohesive, end-to-end product experiences • Define and enforce clean API boundaries between frontend and backend systems • Collaborate with teammates to build a platform that supports: • Orchestrating complex deployment workflows • Progressive rollouts across clusters and regions • Automated rollback of failed deployments • Observability into deployment health and performance • Translate complex infrastructure technologies and concepts (e.g., Kubernetes, Argo Rollouts, deployment policies) into intuitive, user-friendly interfaces • Engage directly with engineers across Reddit—conducting user interviews, gathering feedback, and deeply understanding developer workflows—to shape an opinionated “paved path” for releases • Raise the bar for full-stack engineering across the team through code reviews, mentorship, and knowledge sharing • Participate in the team’s on-call rotation and contribute to the reliability of our platform • Continuously grow your technical and non-technical skills

🎯 Requirements

• 5+ years of experience building full-stack applications, with strong frontend expertise • Deep proficiency in modern frontend development; experience with component-based frameworks (e.g., React, Lit) is valuable, but strong fundamentals matter most • Solid backend experience and understanding of API design, service boundaries, and system architecture • Experience with CI/CD, build systems (e.g., Buildkite, GitHub Actions, Drone) and progressive delivery tools (e.g., Argo Workflows/Rollouts/CD, Kayenta) • Familiarity with Temporal, Kubernetes, and cloud platforms (AWS, GCP) • Excellent communication skills that you employ to drive alignment, to navigate tradeoffs, to influence decisions and priorities, and to empower others • A high degree of empathy, curiosity, and humility, with a passion for improving both developer experience and Reddit’s reliability • A strong sense of ownership. You take initiative, lead projects end-to-end, and go beyond your immediate scope to ensure successful outcomes and drive impact across the platform • A self-directed, action-oriented approach. You are comfortable operating in ambiguity, learning quickly, and driving work forward even when the path is not fully defined
