The Opportunity:

We're seeking a Senior Frontend Engineer to work on the Availability Planning and Experiences team. The Availability Planning system is the engine that powers our OpenTable for Restaurants product. It is where a Restaurant goes to define their schedule and shifts, as well as the placement of their tables; and it has a complex array of settings to control how those tables are used by their diners. As we keep adding more controls, we are always thinking about how we can ensure these controls interact with each other in sensible ways, and how we can give Restaurants precise control and power without making it too complex for them to use. We also enable Restaurants to create their own Experiences, providing an increasing number of ways in which Restaurants can define interesting and unique events for their customers to attend.

Our codebase uses JavaScript and TypeScript with the React and Redux frameworks. We make extensive use of testing using the React Testing library, Jest, and Cypress.

Please apply if you:

• Have 5+ years of full-time professional experience working in a team environment.
• Possess strong communication skills, especially the ability to represent the technical trade-offs between different potential solutions.
• Can drive projects from technical planning to production.
• Write code that is readable and maintainable.
• Have proficiency in JavaScript, Node.js, and React (knowledge of TypeScript is a bonus).
• Carefully test work for bugs while ensuring consistency with requirements and design, and can build automated tests as well as understand how to use them properly.
• Have experience implementing designs and collaborating with designers using tools like Figma.
• Invest in the architecture of the code being written. Create abstractions; find opportunities to create generic and reusable code; and build an integration layer between the UI and backend systems, rather than putting everything directly in the UI layer.
• Show full ownership over the code written, and take the time to learn things being worked on that are not understood.
• Have worked on codebases that were several years old before starting to work on them. Comfortable providing feedback to others via a code review process, and receiving feedback others have provided via this process.
• Adopt emerging AI technologies like Copilot and ChatGPT to enhance workflow, while also taking ownership of the results produced by these technologies and carefully checking them for accuracy."

• Annual company weeks off
