Position Description
We're looking for a Senior JavaScript Engineer to join the Walmart International Front End engineering team at Walmart Labs. Want to change how the Canada shops online? Then keep reading!
About You
You are a passionate front end engineer who loves to code. You love to take ideas and build great products with JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. You know JavaScript is imperfect, but you embrace its functional side and genuinely enjoy coding with it. You might like to talk about obscure computer science topics, but really, you just want to write simple code and ship new products and features to customers (or improve existing ones).
You have an eye for design and user experience. You care about more than just the code. You care about the customer experience and help our customers make better decisions while shopping.
You love learning new things. You love researching new tech and driving forward with the implementation details. Your focus is on frontend JavaScript code, but you can dig in wherever needed. Node.js, GraphQL, NextJS, Nx, build tools, shell scripts, you name it. If you don't already know it, you're ready to learn it.
You understand performance, A/B tests, web vitals, front end optimization and can write code to bring them to life too.
You love helping others. You love sharing knowledge with the rest of your team, building shared tooling for other engineers, giving back to the open-source community, and directly helping customers.
Things You Might Do
Walmart International is a diverse and fast-growing business unit, so you'll likely get experience on many different projects across the organization. That said, here are some things you'll probably do:
Build reusable React components with modular CSS, manage data on the client with Redux, use react query, and GraphQL.
Measure and resolve performance bottlenecks, using tools like Chrome DevTools, Lighthouse, WebPagetest, or custom tooling.
Refactor or improve existing code. We constantly find ways to improve all of our JavaScript/ typescript code and you are all aboard.
Work closely with our product, design, and UX teams to create amazing and intuitive experiences that make it effortless to connect different apps together.
Help put tools, processes, and documentation in place to improve our code quality.
Demonstrate technical expertise in solving challenging programming and design problems
Review code written by other team members or other teams.
Ship to hundreds of thousands of users every day while having lots of autonomy in terms of code and feature ownership.
Help out with our Node-based developer platform.
Share what you know and learn either one-on-one or with lightning talks to the group.
Work boldly with a sense of urgency; embrace mistakes, learn from them, and drive the team toward success
Minimum Qualifications
4+ years experience object oriented design and software development
4+ years experience building responsive, single page web applications using modern front-end JavaScript technologies like React, Angular etc.
