AI in this role

When someone runs a search, digs through logs to chase down an outage, or explores a dashboard to
understand their data, the screen in front of them is OpenSearch Dashboards. It is the open-source
analytics and visualization interface for OpenSearch, used by developers around the world, and it is
also the foundation of OpenSearch UI, the managed experience that tens of thousands of AWS customers
use every day. The quality of that interface is often the difference between a fast answer and a
frustrating one.

We are looking for a senior frontend engineer to lead how OpenSearch Dashboards is built. You will
own the architecture of a large, long-lived open-source web application, shape how its pieces fit
together as it grows, and set the standard for what good looks like: fast, accessible, reliable, and
genuinely pleasant to use at real-world data scale. A growing part of the work is weaving AI into the
product itself, so people can ask questions in plain language and get to insight faster, and you will
help decide how we do that well.

What makes this role different: you are shaping a product that is both a thriving open-source project
and the interface a huge, varied set of AWS customers depend on. It is a platform other teams build
on top of, and the work you do is visible to and shared with a global community of developers. You
will set frontend direction across the product, make the architecture calls that are hard to reverse,
and raise the bar for every engineer who builds UI here.

Key job responsibilities
Own the frontend architecture of OpenSearch Dashboards: how it is structured, how its parts
compose, and how it stays fast and maintainable as it keeps growing.

- Lead design and delivery of major user-facing capabilities end to end, from the interaction design
through performance, accessibility, and production quality.

- Set and raise the standard for frontend quality: performance at real data scale, accessibility,
testing, and a consistent, high-quality experience across the product.

- Help shape how AI shows up in the product, so customers can get to answers faster, and make the
calls on where it genuinely helps.

- Make the deep technical tradeoffs (how to structure shared UI, how to keep large views responsive)
and bring the team and partner teams along with the decision.

- Mentor other engineers, lead design reviews, and lift the overall craft of the frontend team.

Basic qualifications

- 4+ years of non-internship professional front end, web or mobile software development using JavaScript, HTML and CSS experience
- 5+ years of front-end developer creating prototypes or wire-frames for enterprise web applications or workflows experience
- Experience developing with MVC/MVM frameworks (e.g. React.JS, AngularJS, Vue)

Preferred qualifications

- Knowledge of web services technologies such as SOAP, HTTP, WSDL, XSD, and REST
- Experience in a broad range of software design approaches and common UX patterns.
