What this job asks for AI summary
A platform engineering role focused on building and maintaining the shared infrastructure that product and frontend teams rely on — including component libraries, Kong API Gateway services, a React Native mobile ecosystem, observability tooling, and an experimentation/analytics platform. The work also spans performance optimization and AI enablement tooling. It suits a seasoned TypeScript/React engineer comfortable operating across a broad platform stack rather than within a single product area.

Why we read it this way (8)
No explicit total years of experience are stated in the posting; seniority is inferred from the 'Senior' title and the breadth of platform ownership described.
The degree requirement (Bachelor's in CS/CE) is paired with 'or equivalent experience', so it is treated as not a hard gate.
React Native appears in the 'What You'll Be Doing' responsibilities section rather than the 'What We Are Looking For' requirements section; treated as preferred accordingly.
Statsig and Amplitude are listed in the requirements section with 'e.g.' framing, indicating named examples of a broader category; they are retained as required skills because the requirement for experience with experimentation/analytics platforms is firm, and these are the specific tools named.
Netlify and Vercel are listed together as interchangeable composable-platform deployment targets; Vercel is captured as an alternative to Netlify.
Chakra UI and Storybook appear only under the 'Bonus if You Have' section and are marked preferred.
The role is restricted to candidates residing in one of 16 specific U.S. states where IPSY has a business presence, though no metro is specified; per caller instruction, treated as fully remote with no metro inferred.
Caller marked this a fully-remote role — scored against the national candidate pool.
