Front End Software Engineer, Media Player

Responsibilities

• Work cross-functionally with product, design, and other engineering counterparts to execute on product and business strategy and build novel products and features that our users will love.
• Contribute to the full development cycle: technical design, development, test, experimentation, analysis, and launch.
• Design and implement end-to-end fullstack solutions, optimizing web UI components for our media player (React, TypeScript) and the backend APIs (Go, Python) that power them.
• Move fast while balancing quality. We can’t afford extensive processes, and we also can’t afford show-stopping bugs.
• You’ll be reviewing code and design docs, giving feedback on product specs and mocks.
• Collaborate with client engineers and platform engineers to improve performance of media across Reddit to serve better content globally.
• Contribute to standards that improve developer workflows, recommend best practices, and help mentor junior engineers on the team to grow their technical expertise.
