What is Production Engineer (UI) at Facebook?

Looks like it is a frontend focused role. I am currently a frontend developer but the word “production engineer” scares me. Do you think it will be relevant for a front-end developer? I have 4 yoe.

But then what is that UI about? SRE is not supposed to handle UI. It’s confusing.

Maybe you'd be building internal UI tools for production engineering. Could be one of the most chill dev jobs at FB. I've read that FB internal tools roles are less demanding, and building internal UI's without having to do any SRE work sounds as chill as can be. Maybe someone in FB can chime in and correct me if necessary
