Frontend Tech Lead - Acre

We are looking for a frontend focused Tech Lead that wants to help both make the home buyer process better and build a great frontend engineering team. Your role will be to work closely with other front-end developers and the broader engineering organisation to deliver a smooth and seamless user experience for Acre.

Additionally, as a Tech Lead, you'll be responsible for helping promote and ensure software engineering best practices and a culture of quality across the Frontend Development team and codebase.

- Proficient with issue management, code versioning, continuous integration and deployment tools.
