We’re looking for our founding Frontend Engineer who thrives at the intersection of engineering and product thinking. You’ll own features end-to-end, design, build, launch, and iterate, while obsessing over the customer experience and measurable outcomes. Your work will directly shape how thousands of customers interact with our AI-powered customer service platform.

What You’ll Do:

  • Own feature development, from backend services to AI-powered user experiences.
  • Turn customer feedback into product improvements through rapid iteration and experimentation.
  • Collaborate closely with Product, Customer Success, and GTM teams to align engineering decisions with business outcomes.

What You’ll Bring:

  • 4-6 years of full-stack/frontend engineering experience with expertise in React, Next.js, and TypeScript.
  • Strong experience with Tailwind CSS, delivering refined, polished, and visually sharp UIs.
  • Strong familiarity with AI, LLMs, or AI-assisted systems or a willingness to learn fast.
  • Outcome-driven mindset: you measure success in impact, not just shipped features.
  • Comfortable collaborating across engineering, product, and customer-facing teams.
  • Low ego, high energy, resilient in a fast-paced environment.
  • A strong portfolio showcasing high-quality front-end development work.
  • Bonus: prior startup, hacker, or founder experience.
  • Eagerness to work in person with us in NYC full time.

Benefits:

  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance
