Technical Lead - Native Mobile Checkout
Denver Metropolitan Area United States
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJamis Charles is a seasoned technical lead with 14 years of experience driving front-end and observability initiatives at PayPal, now leading a cross-platform native mobile checkout team. He blends deep JavaScript/Node.js expertise (React, Redux, Next, Webpack) with hands-on systems work—designing client-side instrumentation (Atomic Events), reducing latency, and implementing health checks that enabled PagerDuty alerts. Jamis excels at aligning multiple teams and stakeholders, growing small projects into multi-engineer efforts, and shipping parallelized integrations under aggressive timelines. His background spans performance optimization, RUM, monitoring stacks (SignalFx, Splunk, AppDynamics), and pragmatic tooling like a Chrome extension to debug SDKs in production. He’s as comfortable architecting observability and product-focused telemetry as he is debugging complex client/merchant interactions in the wild.
