About the role

Senior technical leader responsible for the architecture, data foundations, and systems integration behind the company’s web presence, with a focus on Next.js, Sanity, integration with marketing/analytics/GTM, and automation/testing practices.

Responsibilities

  • 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.

Qualifications

  • 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.
