## About the Role

You'll work on the hardest UI problem we have: rendering large construction drawings and dense estimate tables without friction. Think canvas rendering, pan/zoom performance, and tables with hundreds of rows that still feel instant. You don't need prior experience with canvas or data-dense interfaces - you need strong React/TypeScript fundamentals, real product taste, and to be a fast learner ready to go deep on a problem most junior roles never touch. You don't need to check every box below - if the hard problem excites you, apply., * Strong React and modern CSS skills - you can build complex layouts and interactions without reaching for a library every time

 * Real design sense - you notice when spacing, hierarchy, or motion is off, and you fix it without being asked
 * Comfortable working from rough product direction - can fill the gap between a mock and a shippable feature
 * Fluent in TypeScript, component architecture, and frontend state management
 * High ownership mindset - you don't wait to be told what to fix
 * Fast learner who can navigate unfamiliar systems and tools quickly
 * Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience

Nice to have

 * Experience with data-dense or canvas-heavy interfaces (tables, editors, drawing tools)
 * Personal projects or open-source work involving performance-sensitive UI
 * Exposure to construction, real estate, or other "boring industry, real problem" domains

## Description

* Build and ship core product UI in React and TypeScript
 * Turn rough product direction and designs into polished, production-ready interfaces
 * Work on frontend performance - fast loads, smooth interactions, responsive rendering of large drawings and data-dense tables
 * Contribute to a reusable component library the team ships on
 * Work directly with product and design to shape features, not just implement them
 * Prototype quickly, gather feedback, and iterate toward the right UX
 * Diagnose and fix frontend bugs, rendering issues, and state management problems
