An overview of this role
As a frontend engineer on the Plan: Product Planning team you’ll work primarily on the work-items views. Read more in our epics: lists, agile boards, table view, saved views. We’re currently a team of 5 backend, 3 frontend, and 1 fullstack engineer, a product manager, an engineering manager, and a designer. We work in smaller sub-teams of 2-5 engineers focusing on a single project for 1-3 months. Every month one engineer is assigned to the quality rotation working on performance, monitoring, security vulnerabilities, and maintenance issues. We meet once a week; project teams can have their own calls, but we mostly work asynchronously. We mostly work with Vue.js and Apollo Client moving GitLab into the SPA-like experience.
What You’ll Do
- Collaborate closely with Product and Design counterparts to finalize the requirements and break down projects into smaller iterations, then plan and execute the work with other engineers.
- Work with engineers across Plan Stage, including Senior, Staff and Principal frontend engineers, and Vue core members.
- Iterate and ship value to customers quickly. Create Proof of Concepts for more complex work. Ensure quality by writing extensive tests and rolling out changes behind feature flags.
- Craft code that meets standards for style, maintainability, and best practices for a high-scale web environment.
- Support other frontend engineers and advocate for quality during code reviews.
- Participate in the Quality Rotation.
- Nurture our open-source community by selecting and preparing issues for contributors, helping to organize hackathons, and reviewing contributions.
- Suggest and execute process improvements in monthly retrospectives.
What You’ll Bring
- Professional experience with Vue.js (2.x), Apollo Client, and VueApollo
- Professional experience with building fullstack web apps with GraphQL
- Experience with writing automated tests with Jest
- A solid understanding of semantic HTML, CSS and core JavaScript concepts
- A solid understanding of core web and browser concepts
