Job Description
Senior Backend Engineer
Chromatic (we're hiring!)
• Build and maintain scalable, reliable backend systems to power the Chromatic product. • Own projects from conception to completion, breaking down features into discrete units of work and maintaining momentum toward delivery. • Work cross-functionally at Chromatic to ensure feature continuity between Chromatic and Storybook and ship work that delights developers. • Continuously improve existing systems by identifying opportunities for optimization, refactoring, and modernization. • Participate in the team's support rotation, which is primarily within business hours. • Stay ahead of emerging trends in frontend architecture and developer tooling, identifying opportunities to enhance the platform.
Job Requirements
- 5+ years of hands-on backend engineering experience building scalable, resilient APIs and systems with modern JS/TS, with a test-driven approach.
- Self-directed problem solver who can scope work, communicate progress, flag blockers early, and make sound technical and product trade-offs independently while staying aligned with stakeholders.
- Strong opinions, weakly held—someone who pushes back on ideas to drive better outcomes, handles critique without defensiveness, and demonstrates a growth mindset.
- Clear written and verbal communicator who provides straightforward, self-contained updates with necessary context in our distributed, asynchronous environment.
- Focused executor who stays accountable to commitments, resists distractions, and delivers consistent progress even when things don't go as planned.
- Genuinely invested in developer experience, whether you've shipped tools for developers or spent years deeply understanding frontend teams' pain points.
Benefits
- Health insurance
- Equity
- Paid time off
- Professional development
