Relevant Technologies * Languages: TypeScript, JavaScript. * Frontend framework: React. * Component development: Storybook or comparable component-driven development tools. * UI development: Reusable components, design systems, dashboards, and portals. * Product domains: Financial workflows, payments, billing, claims, and operational applications. Candidates do not need experience with every technology listed. Prioritize strong React skills, practical frontend engineering fundamentals, product-facing experience, and evidence of ownership. TypeScript is preferred, but strong JavaScript experience may also be considered. Preferred Background * Experience building dashboards, portals, and complex user-facing applications. * Experience at an early-stage or growth-stage startup. * Experience with fintech, payments, billing, healthtech, claims, or healthcare software. * Experience handling sensitive financial, healthcare, or customer data. * Experience building and maintaining design systems or reusable component libraries. * Experience with Storybook or similar component-driven development tools. * Experience working directly with a CTO or small engineering leadership team. * Experience collaborating with product, operations, and other non-technical stakeholders. * A strong record of technical contributions and ownership. * For coding bootcamp graduates, substantial additional professional experience demonstrating equivalent engineering depth. Working Style and Culture * Product-minded: Understands how frontend decisions affect user experience and business outcomes. * Strong ownership: Takes responsibility for features from problem definition through delivery. * Adaptable: Comfortable improving existing systems while building new functionality. * Startup mindset: Can operate effectively without extensive processes or support infrastructure. * Collaborative: Communicates clearly with engineers, product teammates, operations, and other non-technical stakeholders. * User-focused: Can turn complex financial and operational workflows into straightforward interfaces. * Quality-oriented: Cares about maintainable components, consistent design patterns, and reliable frontend behavior. * Bias toward execution: Can identify problems, propose solutions, and ship improvements. * AI-native mindset: Open to using AI-assisted tools to improve engineering productivity and workflows. ## Description * Build and evolve the design system: Help establish and improve reusable UI components, frontend patterns, and the design system as the product grows. * Develop product-facing interfaces: Build intuitive dashboards, portals, and user-facing applications that support senior living operators and their financial workflows. * Improve frontend architecture: Strengthen existing frontend systems and establish patterns that make the application easier to maintain and extend. * Own features end-to-end: Take ownership of frontend projects from problem definition and design collaboration through implementation, testing, and delivery. * Shape product direction: Collaborate with the CTO, product stakeholders, and cross-functional teammates to identify problems and develop effective user experiences. * Improve frontend tooling: Propose and implement improvements to the frontend development workflow, component libraries, and supporting tools. * Build accessible, user-friendly experiences: Translate complex operational and financial workflows into clear, reliable interfaces. * Collaborate across functions: Work effectively with product, operations, and other non-technical stakeholders to understand user needs and deliver practical solutions. * Operate with startup ownership: Help define engineering practices, make technical decisions, and contribute beyond narrowly scoped frontend tasks. * Use AI-native workflows: Work in an environment that embraces AI-assisted development and encourages engineers to improve how they build and ship software., * Make a meaningful impact: Build software that supports senior living operators and helps families navigate important financial and care transitions. * Work on a proven platform: Contribute to a business processing more than $1 billion in annual payments across operators in 45+ states. * Shape the product early: Help establish the frontend architecture, design system, and engineering practices. * Work closely with the CTO: Contribute directly to product decisions and technical direction. * Own meaningful features: Take projects from initial ideas through implementation and delivery. * Build modern frontend systems: Improve React-based applications, reusable components, and user-facing workflows. * Join a well-funded company: Work at a Series A company backed by experienced investors and startup leaders.
