Frontend Engineer

No Longer Taking Applications

Job Description

We’re setting out to level the playing field for job seekers, building a truly consumer-first platform that equips people with the tools, technology, and resources they need to feel empowered to achieve career growth on their own terms. Our long-term goal: to help people make confident career decisions from the day they start working to the day they retire—and that starts with the job search.

We are looking for a fully remote frontend engineer to support all frontend efforts across the Teal platform. You will be working with our current front-end engineers who are fantastic and love their craft.

This is not a senior level position, however you will be working with at least three senior level frontend engineers, and there is room for advancement to senior, (and we are excited to help you get there!)

Responsibilities

  • Architect and implement best practices for the Teal frontend client
  • Help integrate our design system into more of the codebase
  • Collaborate with backend engineers, designers and business stakeholders
  • Develop and shape the company’s frontend coding standards and processes

Requirements

  • React, Redux, Typescript
  • Front-end testing, and you love it
  • Enjoy working in a startup environment where helping to build culture and processes is just as important as building code

Nice-to-Haves

  • Chrome Extension Experience
  • Working in an early stage company (series Seed & A startups) where process grows along with our team size.
  • Experience working in a 100% remote environment

Skills & Tools You Will Use And Learn

  • Typescript, React, vite, vitest, playwright

What Great Looks Like

At 1 month:

  • On Day 1 you’ve made your first pull request
  • In 1 Week you have a good idea of how to take the existing frontend client to where it needs to go in terms of high level architecture and low level pattern changes
  • You have moved the needle on the frontend client, structuring it in such a way that future functionality becomes easier, not harder to implement

At 3 months:

  • We are in flow, moving at speed because of the prior foundational work, adding new features, able to iterate and test and measure with confidence

At 6 months:

  • Your tools have been in people’s hands for months
  • You’ve personally seen that your work has affected the lives of thousands of people as they gain employment through the tools you’ve created

What We Offer

  • Salary Range: $130,000 - $150,000 depending on seniority & geography
  • Incentive Stock Options proportionate to salary
  • Fully remote work team & remote office stipend (coworking, laptop, etc.)
  • Career development stipend
  • Unlimited vacation and sick days
  • Up to 12 week paid parental leave, based on tenure.
  • 80 - 100% coverage of health insurance for full family, Commuter Benefits & 401K Benefits with company matching.
  • Guaranteed 1-month severance if things don’t work out. You are trusting us with your career, and we want you to know we take it seriously.
