The team's mission is to make Harvey's web presence evolve at the velocity of the product itself , reliable, observable, and fast enough that Marketing and GTM can ship without waiting on engineering.

## What You'll Do

- Own the architecture of Harvey's web platform end to end , the Next.js/Vercel application, the Sanity content layer, and the services and APIs behind them , with a focus on reliability, performance, and scalability.

- Design and build the data foundations and integration patterns that connect the website to Harvey's marketing, analytics, CRM, and GTM systems, supporting both real-time and batch workloads.

- Establish automation, CI/CD, preview/deploy tooling, and robust automated testing where little exists today, reducing operational toil and increasing team velocity.

- Set observability standards , structured logging, tracing, Core Web Vitals and performance budgets, alerting , so the team can catch and resolve issues before Marketing does.

- Lead how the team applies AI and ML to web workflows, from content operations to personalization to internal tooling, and act as the bridge between product engineering and web engineering.

- Partner with Security and Infrastructure to harden the platform without slowing developer experience.

- Provide technical leadership and mentorship to a small, front-end-focused team through code review, design review, and architectural guidance.

## What You Have

- 8+ years of Web Engineering experience with deep back-end and systems expertise, and a track record of owning technical architecture at a staff level of scope and ambiguity.

- Strong command of the modern web stack , React/Next.js, TypeScript, and server-side rendering , paired with genuine back-end depth (Node, Python, or comparable) rather than front-end specialization alone.

- Experience architecting and operating headless CMS and content platforms (Sanity, Contentful, or similar) at scale, including schema design and publishing workflows.

- Proven experience building and operating reliable production systems: CI/CD, infrastructure-as-code, observability tooling, and performance optimization against real user metrics.

- Fluency with data infrastructure fundamentals , SQL/NoSQL databases, caching, queuing, API and webhook integration patterns , in service of marketing and GTM systems.

- Experience integrating AI/ML capabilities into production web experiences or content workflows.

- Demonstrated ability to mentor less experienced engineers, influence across functions, and operate autonomously in a small team where you are the deepest technical voice.
