Front-End Engineer

San Francisco, CA

We’re transforming e-commerce by making it easy for brands to plug in with top-quality manufacturers around the world.

Shopify made it easy for brands to sell products, but getting those products made is painful. Join us as we build the world’s first AI product sourcing agent and usher in a new era of e-commerce — helping brands tap into the global manufacturing ecosystem and easily launch new products.

We’re a team of builders, operators, and investors from Stripe, Google, Amazon, Palantir, and Anduril. We’re well funded and have already built our core technology.

What we’re looking for

We’re looking for a front-end engineer to help shape the user experience of our web app, from implementing future-thinking, visually stunning UIs to collaborating on core product features.

Responsibilities

• UI Development: Implement rich, responsive UIs using React, TypeScript, and Tailwind UI, focused on exceptional user experiences.
• Product Collaboration: Work closely with design and product teams to translate business requirements to product features.
• Iterative Problem-Solving: Partner with teammates across engineering, operations, and customer success to tackle technical and business challenges, refining features and systems as needed.

Requirements

• Technologies: Proficiency in handling frontend state with React or related frameworks; solid grasp of web architecture. Exposure to LLM application development and its integration into frontend systems.
• Mindset: Proactive, detail- and design-obsessed. Fired up about spearheading next-generation UI/UX and creating “magical” user experiences. Ready to make feature and design suggestions, tackle challenges, and thrive in a hands-on, early-stage startup environment.
