Founding Software Engineer

Why we need you

Our service is only as good as the surface it lives on. Customers expect a polished, effortlessly‑fast UI that feels at home in both our cloud and their air‑gapped data center. We need a front‑end architect who can turn complex engineering data into an intuitive product experience and package it so it runs anywhere.

What you'll do

• Own the front‑end architecture: evolve our Next.js app (RSC, Vite, Turbopack) into a modular, plug‑in‑ready codebase that scales with the business.
• Build a reusable design‑system & component library (Storybook + Tailwind) shared across marketing, docs, and the core product.
• Craft interactive dashboards and data‑viz that help VPs, EMs, and ICs answer "What's happening in my codebase?" at a glance.
• Package the UI for self‑hosted installs—static asset pipelines, CDN fallback, config‑as‑code themes.
• Champion accessibility, visual polish, and consistent UX patterns; mentor teammates in front‑end best practices.
• Dogfood our engineering manager agent and be highly opinionated about its design

You might be a great fit if you

• Have 4+ years building production React/Next.js applications that ship to paying customers.
• Have led or significantly contributed to a design‑system or component‑library initiative.
• Understand how to bundle, cache, and serve large apps without being a "perf only" specialist.
• Are comfortable writing TypeScript end‑to‑end and enjoy collaborating closely with designers and backend engineers.
• Have opinions on data‑viz libs (Recharts, d3, visx) and know when to roll your own.
• Bonus points: You've built at a fast growing startup and dealt with growing pains first hand.
• Bonus points: experience packaging front‑end apps for on‑prem / air‑gapped deployments, or shipping browser‑based developer tools.
• Extreme bonus points: You're already day dreaming about whatyou can accomplish with an unlimited AI tooling budget
