Salary:
$170,000 - $180,000 + Equity
Company Description
We are a fast-growing, venture-backed startup focused on redefining the way users interact with modern web applications. Backed by top-tier investors and a seasoned founding team, we’re on a mission to build elegant, scalable, and highly secure products that empower users and businesses alike. You'll be joining a small but mighty engineering team working on next-gen technology that solves real-world problems in a high-growth, product-led environment.
What You Will Do
Design and implement user-centric features from frontend to backend, ensuring quality and performance throughout the stack. Collaborate cross-functionally with product, design, and fellow engineers to architect intuitive and scalable solutions. Own projects end-to-end — from concept and design to implementation, testing, and deployment. Contribute to a modern, well-maintained codebase using tools like React, TypeScript, Node.js, and Next.js. Drive quality and security best practices across the engineering lifecycle to maintain a high standard of reliability and safety. Work in a hybrid environment in NYC, with significant in-office collaboration alongside your team.
Ideal Candidate Background
3-6 years of professional experience in software engineering, preferably in fast-paced, early-stage startups. Recent experience working with React and full-stack JavaScript/TypeScript frameworks. Strong track record of building user-facing web products, especially in startup environments (Seed to Series B). Demonstrated ability to think like a builder or founder — you enjoy ownership and see products through from idea to execution. Experience contributing meaningfully to small engineering teams or startup founding teams.
Preferred
Degree in Computer Science or a related field, especially from a top program or relevant technical bootcamp. Previous experience at high-growth startups with complex product needs. Familiarity with modern technologies like React Query/Tanstack, tRPC, and responsive HTML/CSS. Deep understanding of secure development practices and building systems that prioritize privacy and data safety.
