Use .find() on a JSON file to get a a string with a specific keyterm

I’m trying to use array.find() to get the first JSON string that contains amogus. I’ve tried to read the JSON file using fs then using JSON.parse() to make it readable. However, I can’t seem to get it to do what I want it to do.

JSON file:

{stuff: ["hosds29083", "amogus1208", "amogus1213"]

desired output: amogus1208

Thanks.
