• Build and own the Replika web app and our web growth surfaces — marketing site, conversion flows, account and dashboard surfaces, and the supporting tools around them. • Architect frontend systems that scale. State management, real-time updates, performance budgets, the works. • Ship live, conversational features on the web. Companions that feel responsive, not laggy. Sub-second is the bar. • Work directly with product, design, and backend engineering. No PMs translating tickets at you. You’re in the room. • Wire up analytics and experimentation across web surfaces. We test, we learn, we iterate. Decisions come from data, not vibes. • Set the bar for code quality, performance, and craft. New hires will model what you ship.

• Lead the Frontend Guild • Make the guild a space engineers genuinely want to participate in — one that surfaces real problems, shares knowledge, and produces outputs (standards, patterns, tooling choices, ADRs) that teams actually use. • Treat the guild as your most powerful lever — when it’s working well, it multiplies your impact far beyond what you could achieve alone. • Set technical direction and maintain quality • Own the frontend technical direction for your vertical. • Define guardrails and standards that give teams speed and confidence, not ones that slow them down. • Stay close to architectural and technical decisions across teams. • Make sure technical debt and risks are visible and actively managed. • Drive initiatives that make consistent, measurable progress. • Define what “healthy” looks like for frontend systems — instrumentation standards, alerting principles, SLO patterns — so reliability is a first-class concern, not an afterthought. • Work with Engineering Managers and the Head of Engineering to ensure technical work is prioritised alongside product work. • Build relationships and grow the people around you • Take the time to understand each team — how they work, what they’re dealing with, and where their strengths lie. • Know which teams can operate autonomously within the guardrails and which need more active coaching, and invest your time accordingly. • Actively mentor engineers in your vertical, helping them grow their technical scope and develop the habit of thinking beyond their immediate team. • Foster a culture of curiosity, craft and continuous improvement — not just in the guild, but in the day-to-day rhythm of the teams you work with. • Bridge engineering and the wider organisation • Communicate technical trade-offs, risks and decisions clearly to non-technical partners — in terms of impact, not implementation detail. • Work with Engineering Managers to keep technical health and delivery in balance. • You’re not downstream of product direction — you help shape it.
