Mid Level Front End Engineer

Summary

Cedar is a company focused on making home ownership accessible to more Americans. They are seeking a mid-level front-end engineer to build consumer-facing web applications and enhance their AI tooling, providing ownership and growth opportunities from the start.

Responsibilities

• Build and own the consumer-facing web app in React, TypeScript, and Next.js
• Lean on our AI tooling to ship quickly, and help make it better as you go
• Be fanatical about testing your assumptions and judging your work by outcomes. AI speeds you up, but it doesn’t think for you, so the verification is on you
• Take dense financial logic and turn it into screens people can understand and trust
• Work shoulder to shoulder with design and product, from rough idea to shipped, accessible UI
• Own features from build to release, then watch how people use them and make them better
• Keep the bar high in code review, write tests that matter, and chase bugs to their root cause
• First couple of weeks: get set up, ship a small change to production, and learn how we work
• First month: own a feature end to end, from design handoff through release
• By 90 days: you’re the go-to person for a meaningful slice of the consumer app

Skills

• A few years (roughly 3+) building production web apps with React and TypeScript
• You're solid on HTML and CSS, and you make things work on a phone, not just a laptop
• You've worked with APIs, REST or GraphQL, and testing is just part of how you build
• You're excited about our AI tooling and want to push it further
• You work well independently and enjoy the back-and-forth between product, design, and engineering
• Bonus: a good eye for design and comfort working in Figma
• Bonus: you've worked on accessibility (WCAG) before
