We are looking for a Senior Full Stack Engineer to join our early team.

You deeply care about your craft and quality of code that you ship. You have worked on things that others might see as a waste of time but these things were technically challenging and the beauty was enough reward. You are maybe a bit obsessive but you understand how to take a product vision and develop it into a usable first version using proven design patterns and elegant solutions.

Join us to shape the products our customers experience and our company and engineering culture!

• 5+ years of experience as a full stack engineer
• Proficiency in React, NextJS, TypeScript, and backend technologies (e.g., Node.js, Express, PostgreSQL)
• Working knowledge of frontend concepts related to aesthetics, design, and usability
• Experience with ORMs, deploying to cloud platforms (e.g., Railway), and understanding caching and scaling
• Ability to communicate your ideas to engineers, leadership, and users
• Flexible and comfortable with ambiguity of working in a rapidly changing environment
• Highly collaborative and you proactively seek out feedback to incorporate into your work

Bonus:

• Worked as a CTO at any previous companies you may have founded or joined so that you’ve been exposed to the full scope of problems that a startup experiences.
• Built side projects, played with Stable Diffusion, or already used Bun

Our projects and priorities will change as we explore and iterate. Here are some of the examples of things you'll be working on:

• Onboarding flow for our Web product surface (Consumer + Business)
• Checkout flow on web using Stripe's React SDK
• New AI features in our Gallery
• The next version of our Enterprise dashboard for larger companies like Microsoft, Dell and Hubspot
• Building and maintaining backend services, APIs, and databases

• Everyone works remotely, but we get together at least 2 times a year
• We believe that smaller teams are better: faster decisions, fewer meetings, more fun
• We value deep, focused work. Our engineers are on maker's schedule
• Our core app is built with TypeScript, React, NextJS, tRPC & Prisma, styled with Tailwind
• On ML side, we work with the cutting edge image generation AI tech and have a novel pipeline for fine tuning and inference.
• We ship fast — our build pipeline takes less than 3 minutes, and we are not afraid to push code on Fridays
• We constantly talk to our users, and it's easy to get feedback on the new features we ship
• We invest in things that make us more productive
