Senior Frontend Engineer (Marketplace Web Rewrite)

We are hiring a Senior Frontend Engineer to become the technical anchor of our Marketplace web rewrite — rebuilding the highest-traffic journeys and defining frontend standards for the next 5+ years. This is a foundation year for the web experience. Approximately 75% of resortpass.com pages will be rebuilt.
