What you'll do

• Develop secure, well-tested, and performant TypeScript features that solve technical problems of moderate scope and complexity.
• Ship small features and improvements with minimal guidance, writing tests with every merge request and contributing to code reviews and design discussions.
• Extract and publish TypeScript packages from the GitLab Language Server, migrating consumers incrementally so no parallel implementation is left to drift.
• Design durable public APIs with clear interfaces, semantic versioning, changelogs, and deprecation paths for external consumers.
• Build isomorphic core packages that isolate platform-specific behavior in adapters at the edges.
• Build and improve SDK client surfaces, including Vue 3 components in Duo Chat on the web, in collaboration with product, design, and engineering teams.
• Strengthen credential handling across hosts, including bearer tokens, session cookies, and CSRF protection.
• Optimize bundle size, startup cost, and dependency weight for browser consumers, and support a Tier 2 on-call rotation for urgent engineering issues.
• Take part in on-call or operational support where your team’s ownership model requires it.

What you'll bring

• Strong proficiency with TypeScript across frontend and backend systems, including experience building and maintaining Node.js services.
• Experience with modern build and packaging tools, including monorepos, multi-module builds, ECMAScript modules (ESM), and dependency management.
• Experience with Vue 3 and the Composition API, or comparable component-based frontend experience and a willingness to learn Vue.
• Experience designing APIs that other people use, with the ability to explain what you'd do differently.
• Understanding of the differences between running code in Node.js and in the browser, and how to write code that works in both.
• A security-minded development approach, including careful credential handling and performance optimization.
• Ability to communicate clearly and concisely in writing about technical problems, propose iterative solutions, and work effectively in an agile environment.
• Self-motivation, strong organizational skills, and the judgment to ask for help when needed while thriving in a fully remote organization aligned with GitLab's values.
