About The Position

We're looking for full stack engineers who are passionate about web technology, developer experience, and building powerful tools to join our small and fast-moving team. This role focuses on delivering the next generation of advanced asset delivery systems — from memory-smart backend services to browser-optimized features like animations, colors, and variable states. We're creating infrastructure and tools that empower web developers across the company to build visually stunning, performant applications with minimal effort. Every engineer on our team contributes to shaping the product direction and technical foundation. More than any specific language or framework experience, we value curiosity, initiative, and a drive to explore what's next in the world of web tooling. If you enjoy solving hard problems, prototyping new ideas, and working closely with top-tier designers — this is a chance to make a big impact early.

  • Proficient in modern JavaScript and TypeScript, with a strong grasp of browser APIs, DOM behavior, and web standards
  • Solid understanding of CSS, HTML, and SVG, including experience implementing interactive or animated UI elements
  • Familiarity with CDN behavior, caching headers, and performance optimization techniques for asset delivery
  • Experience working with containerized development environments using Docker or similar tools
  • Working knowledge of build systems such as Webpack or Rollup, and conceptual understanding of how plugins extend tooling
  • Experience with at least one modern frontend framework (e.g., React, Svelte, Angular) and willingness to adapt to others as needed

Nice To Haves

  • Experience integrating or serving machine learning models in production environments
  • Familiarity with embedding databases, vector search, and designing inference APIs
  • Understanding of strategies for progressive enhancement and streaming model output to clients
  • Prior contributions to open-source design systems, component libraries, or build tools
  • Exposure to edge or serverless compute platforms (e.g., Cloudflare Workers, Vercel Edge, Lambda@Edge)
  • Strong understanding of web application architecture and experience contributing to production-grade frontend interfaces
  • Passion for developer experience, with a track record of building tools, previews, or workflows that simplify adoption
  • Appreciation for documentation quality, internal craftsmanship, and the long-term maintainability of web tooling
  • Production experience building backend services in Node.js, with knowledge of service architecture, routing, and data flow patterns

Responsibilities

  • Implement advanced frontend features using expert-level CSS, HTML, and SVG to support rich visual assets and motion design
  • Develop backend systems in Fastify and Node.js to deliver web assets at scale with performance-optimized strategies
  • Build and maintain internal plugins, middleware, and tooling to support asset delivery pipelines, build systems, and developer workflows
  • Collaborate closely with designers and platform teams to interpret specs and bring complex, animated assets to life across browsers
  • Author and maintain developer-facing documentation, CLIs, and preview tools to improve adoption and usability of asset features
  • Prototype, evaluate, and productionize cutting-edge frontend techniques including content-visibility, efficient script loading, and payload-aware delivery
  • Support internal developer teams by triaging issues, providing guidance, and ensuring high-quality integration of assets into their applications
  • Partner with deployment teams to communicate system requirements, validate feature behavior, and respond to production concerns
