PagerDuty empowers teams of all kinds to do the critical work that moves business forward through the PagerDuty Operations Cloud.
PagerDuty is seeking a Senior Front-End Engineer - Platform to join our diverse, customer-focused team in Lisbon! As Senior Front-End Engineer , you will be working on the team leading PagerDuty in creating and implementing a new design system and component library. The App Experience team works closely with other product development teams internally who will leverage the design system and component library to build new products. We're also working closely with customers and partners to better understand their needs as it comes to platform flexibility and customizability; our larger, more sophisticated customers, in particular, are asking for a high level of customizability in terms of how they manage real-time work (such as alerts, incidents, post-mortems, security events, etc). The ideal candidate will have a deep understanding of design systems, the ability to lead a small team in terms of documentation and best practices, superior communication skills, and strong front-end (React) development skills.

Design and architect the set of flexible platform building blocks that will become the PagerDuty Platform.
Work closely with teams, building on top of our design system and component library to understand their needs, gather their feedback, and communicate with them on a regular basis.
From day one, you'll be architecting, coding, testing, and shipping frontend components and libraries that ensure we deliver secure, highly reliable, and scalable solutions to our customers.
Since we own and operate what we build, you'll collaborate closely with engineers across teams.
Curate the frontend design system and component library in a complex distributed system.
Develop and use frontend architecture patterns that scale across the engineering organization and provide better user and developer experiences.
Write unit and integration tests.
Own and shepherd projects that our team takes on.

Have a deep understanding of modern styling techniques on the web including CSS-in-JS frameworks and CSS modules.
Knowledge about core parts of frontend engineering (state management, performance, accessibility, styling, infrastructure).
You will be participating in your team's on-call rotation, triaging and addressing production issues as they arise.
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
Experience with open-source UI component libraries like Chakra, MUI, or similar.
Empathy - you can clearly communicate your thoughts and opinions to others and facilitate these technical discussions to a successful outcome.
Commitment to ensuring our team works sustainably and inclusively.
