💬 Why this role now?
Our product team is ~10 Engineers, 3 QAs, 1 PM, 2 designers, Engineering Manager and our founders. We are building the best product in our category and are shipping great functionality but we want to go even faster 🚀

We are concurrently hiring another designer, and another PM so we can build two pods of work (core and growth/new).

We raised a Series A last year after years of bootstrapped and sustainable growth, so are in a financially strong position. We have never conducted layoffs and believe in thoughtful hiring.

We are looking for a Frontend Engineer who excels in a fast pace remote environment, is enthusiastic about building excellent software, and enjoys tackling a diverse range of problems.
