Senior/Lead Frontend Developer (Chrome Extensions Specialist) (IRC284554)

Job Description

- 5+ years of relevant commercial experience as frontend engineer.

- Deep expertise in the Chrome Extension API (permissions, declarativeNetRequest, messaging, storage). 

- Experience bypassing anti-scraping measures or handling highly obfuscated DOM structures. Familiarity with Shadow DOM and its impact on style isolation and scraping.

- Proven experience migrating or building under Manifest V3 architecture.

- Mastery of React for building extension-specific UIs (Sidepanels, Action Popups).

- Strong knowledge of Content Security Policy (CSP) and cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) in an extension context.

- Experience with TypeScript to ensure type safety across different extension environments.

- Expert-level understanding of DOM manipulation and scraping of asynchronous, "heavy" web apps. Knowledge of browser performance profiling to ensure the extension doesn't slow down the user's browser. Understanding of how to secure sensitive data within local extension storage.

- Proven experience contributing to mature Chrome extension projects maintained by multiple R&D teams, with complex shared codebases.

- Experience developing or maintaining automation and performance testing tools to monitor extension impact at scale, detect regressions, and ensure minimal disruption to end users.

Job Responsibilities

Our Chrome/Edge extension is a core part of the clinician's daily workflow. It lives alongside Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems, capturing data and providing real-time AI suggestions. We need a high-level specialist to lead the development of this extension, ensuring it remains robust against external site changes and maintains strict medical-grade security. Part of your responsibilities will include, but not limited to:

- Lead the architecture and development of our browser extensions using Manifest V3.

- Build sophisticated content scripts that reliably scrape and interact with dynamic EHR platforms.

- Manage complex background logic using Service Workers for session lifecycle management.

- Ensure the extension’s React-based UI (popups and overlays) is high-performance and non-intrusive.

- Implement secure, cross-context messaging between content scripts, service workers, and the main web app.

- Develop robust "DOM observers" to handle updates on third-party sites without breaking functionality.

- Collaborate effectively with multiple R&D teams on large, mature extension projects, contributing to a shared, scalable codebase.

- Design, implement, and maintain automation frameworks to continuously monitor extension performance, detect regressions, and measure the impact on browsers and external systems.

- Establish best practices for performance, security, and maintainability in large-scale, multi-team extension projects.

Department/Project Description

We are redefining the standard of care in mental health. Our platform empowers clinicians by automating administrative burdens—such as note-taking and compliance auditing—using cutting-edge AI and real-time audio analysis. By bridging the gap between clinical sessions and actionable data, we allow providers to focus on what matters most: the patient.
