WHAT YOU'LL DO

Braze’s product is the control center for thousands of the world’s most sophisticated marketing teams. The Frontend Infrastructure & Experience (FIX) team builds the platform foundations that every product engineer relies on and owns key parts of the end-user experience.

  • Communicate clearly, collaborate well across teams, and help raise the technical bar for those around you
  • Bonus experience
    • Experience building design systems or component libraries
    • Experience with frontend testing frameworks such as Cypress or Jest
    • Experience with code generation, linting, codemods, or other developer tooling
    • Experience with internationalization, localization, or accessibility
