Frontend Engineer


Location: On-site, NYC

Salary: $160k – $220k + early equity

Industry: Cloud Infrastructure, Software Development


What You’ll Drive

Join a high-velocity, YC-backed team redefining cloud infrastructure by building the fastest, most efficient CI cloud for 600+ top startups. Backed by $13.5M from Google Ventures and led by engineers who built systems at Cockroach Labs and Faire, we orchestrate millions of VMs monthly for companies demanding speed and efficiency.


As a Frontend Engineer, you’ll have a massive impact—crafting polished, high-performance UIs that power the future of CI, shipping features used directly by leading product teams, and diving deep into both frontend and backend code to shape the customer experience end-to-end.


What You’ll Focus On

  • Build, scale, and optimize modern React/TypeScript UIs in close partnership with design

  • Identify and resolve browser performance and rendering bottlenecks for high-speed, customer-facing dashboards

  • Architect complex components and collaborate on full stack solutions—50–90% frontend with backend work in Laravel

  • Work and iterate alongside founders to rapidly ship features and improve our core product

  • Contribute to code quality, performance tuning, and setting UI/UX standards in a fast-moving environment


Who You Are

  • 2–5 years’ experience as a solid full stack engineer with a strong frontend lean; comfortable across backend tasks

  • Built and shipped polished, high-performance UIs at top startups, quant shops/funds, or FAANG—ideally on customer-facing products

  • Deep proficiency in React/TypeScript (bonus: strong Laravel skills)

  • Product-minded, with a sense for customer needs, usability, and UI detail

  • Not afraid to go deep on performance, from browser rendering to complex architecture

  • Enjoy hands-on collaboration, feedback-heavy environments, and a 5-day on-site NYC culture

  • Bonus: Top CS degree or prior experience as a founder or founding engineer


Tech Stack

React, TypeScript, Laravel


Why You’ll Thrive Here

  • Hyper-growth team: 6x revenue in 4 months, with 600+ customers (Ashby, Pylon, Slope, Finch, and more)

  • Immediate ownership: Build shipping product with outsized impact for early high-growth clients

  • Elite founders: Ex-Cockroach Labs, Faire, Y Combinator W24, Series A from Google Ventures ($13.5M raised)

  • Ambitious mission: Helping unbundle CI workloads from hyperscalers—huge addressable market

  • Start-up pace, big vision: Fast build cycles, direct access to founding engineers, and a collaborative team of just 4

  • Benefits: Medical/dental/vision, unlimited PTO, paid parental leave (12 weeks), early stock options, and quarterly team offsites
