ResortPass | Senior Software Engineer, Frontend | New York, NY | Full-time, In-Office | $160K-$180K + equity | resortpass.com

We're rewriting resortpass.com — starting with our highest-traffic surfaces (SRP/DLP) — and need a Senior Frontend Engineer to be the technical anchor. ~75% of pages get touched this year: international expansion (Mexico & Caribbean now, Europe next), in-housing search from Algolia, a new Hotel SaaS tool, and Spa as a major new vertical.

Senior role, Staff-leaning scope, clear path to Tech Lead. 2/3 of traffic is web, so performance is business-critical (Core Web Vitals, SEO, caching), and this codebase is also our launchpad for AI features (concierge chatbot, AI spa booker).

Stack: Next.js 16 (App Router), React 19, TypeScript, Tailwind, shadcn/ui. Backend: Rails, Node/AWS, Postgres, MongoDB. Playwright + Datadog.

You'll own: technical design (RFCs) for major rewrites, reusable App Router patterns, code quality/mentorship for a junior-leaning team, and API contracts with backend.

Need: 6+ yrs production web apps, deep React/Next.js expertise, proven track record leading high-traffic rewrites with measurable results. Strong full-stack engineers open to leveling up on React also welcome.

Visa: not standard, possible exception for exceptional candidates. JD + Apply: https://uctalent.io/referral/Huynh_Nhu_Bao_Nhan221138/v8QmsN...

There is a massive competitive advantage right now in building 'boring' infrastructure manually instead of rushing to wrap an AI API.

While the trend is to build a conversational interface for everything, I've found that real businesses are still bleeding time on core sales friction. For example, moving away from static PDFs to interactive live sales quotations requires rock-solid, hand-coded database architecture to handle real-time pricing, currency locking, and instant approvals. You simply can't prompt an LLM to reliably handle that level of strict state management.

Taking the time to write the core logic yourself makes the system predictable. Businesses don't pay for the AI novelty; they pay for seamless operational execution
