Job description
You wonât just âwork on UI.â Youâll help define how this whole thing works.
- Build and evolve a drag-and-drop app builder used across the company
- Collaborate and shape frontend architecture decisions (React / Next.js)
- Implement highly interactive, state-heavy UIs
- Create component systems that non-developers can configure and use
- Balance performance, usability, and flexibility in a complex environment
- Partner closely with product and design (who have opinions) and engineering (who have different opinions)
Requirements
- Is comfortable when things are a little messy
- Can figure things out without a playbook
- Has strong eye for design and knows when to pivot
- Can think like both a developer and a designer
- Doesnât panic when priorities shift or structure evolves, Youâll need to be strong here, weâre building something non-trivial.
- React / Next.js (deep experience, not surface-level)
- Advanced state management (handling complex, nested, high-volume UI state)
- TypeScript (strict mode)-youâre comfortable modeling complex systems
- Component architecture-youâve built systems, not just screens
- Styling systems (we use a mix of MUI + Tailwind⌠yes, really, so experience in both is preferred)
- Performance tuning (keeping things smooth even when they shouldnât be)
Bonus points:
- Experience with low-code/no-code tools
- Thinking in JSON schemas / UI-as-data
- Building drag-and-drop interfaces

We need engineers who care about UX, not just functionality.

- Experience building highly interactive web apps
- Strong performance mindset
- Familiarity with modern frontend tooling
