Founding Frontend Engineer

About the Role

We're an early-stage AI-powered talent acquisition startup on a mission to replace the traditional job application process with smart, direct introductions between candidates and hiring teams. Our platform acts as a personalized AI talent agent — understanding candidate preferences through natural conversation and connecting them directly with the right opportunities at startups.

We're hiring our first full-time Founding Frontend Engineer to help shape and build the consumer-facing product from the ground up. This is a high-ownership, high-impact role at the heart of our product and engineering team.

What You'll Do

• Own and drive the frontend architecture and development of our core consumer product end-to-end.

• Collaborate closely with design and product to translate Figma designs into polished, performant UI experiences.

• Leverage AI coding tools to move fast and maintain high code quality.

• Help establish frontend best practices, tooling, and processes as an early founding team member.

• Contribute meaningfully to product decisions — your voice shapes what we build and how.

• Work in a fast-paced, iterative environment where your work directly impacts thousands of users.

What We're Looking For

Required:

• 3–5 years of frontend development experience, with a strong focus on consumer/B2C products.

• At least 2 years of experience at a B2C company — you understand what great consumer UX feels like.

• Proficiency with Figma and comfortable working directly from design files.

• Hands-on experience with AI coding tools (e.g., Copilot, Cursor, or similar).

• Authorized to work in the United States — visa sponsorship is not available.

Nice to Have:

• Experience working in early-stage startups or as part of a founding team.

• Willingness to be present in San Francisco, Los Angeles, or New York City as needed.

Compensation & Benefits

• Salary: €55,000 – €65,000 annually

• Founding team equity and early-stage upside

• Direct impact on product direction and company culture

Location

This is a hybrid role based primarily in San Francisco, CA. Occasional presence in Los Angeles or New York City may be required. Candidates must be authorized to work in the United States — no visa sponsorship is available.
