Founding Senior Engineer (Typescript, Node)

The web is a very exciting place today, but building great user experiences (especially for online commerce) is still slow, complicated, and often expensive. Marketing, design, and engineering teams all have to collaborate together to create content, but leaky abstractions and 10+ year old tech on platforms like Shopify create huge headaches for teams.

At its core, Replo is building the world's first NPM app store + visual editor built around React

They've raised over $2.6M from YCombinator, Infinity Ventures, MAGIC Fund, as well as the founders of NextJS/Vercel. Noah was previously principal engineer at Plangrid, Yuxin ran the Commerce team at Uber.
