About The Role

Note we are only accepting candidates from US or Canada at this time

We are looking for a Senior Front-end Engineer to join our early team.

You deeply care about your craft and the aesthetics. You have worked on things that others might see as a waste of time but these things were technically challenging and the beauty was enough reward. You are maybe a bit obsessive but you understand how to take a product vision and develop it into a usable first version using proven design patterns and elegant solutions.

You love hanging out with designers and PMs in Figma and Excalidraw. You come up with growth hack ideas and fix broken things without asking for permission.

Join us to shape the products our customers experience and our company and engineering culture!

• Know keyboard shortcuts in Figma and Excalidraw
• Ability to communicate your ideas to engineers, leadership, and users
• Flexible and comfortable with ambiguity of working in a rapidly changing environment

Bonus

• Experience with backend: used ORMs, deployed to Railway, understand caching and scaling
• Have shipped a React Native app to production
• Self-taught design skills
• Built side projects, played with Stable Diffusion, or already used Bun

What you’ll be working on
