About the Role

We're looking for a frontend engineer to own the interface through which users will interact with distributed systems. This isn't just another dashboard — it's an entire operating system. You'll have the opportunity to innovate at the level of foundational UI/UX paradigms that have shaped computing.

This role requires the kind of creative thinking that reimagines how users relate to complex infrastructure—transforming something traditionally scary and technical into something accessible and useful to everyone, not just highly technical specialists.

What You'll Do

  • Design and develop user interfaces for a distributed systems platform

  • Drive frontend architecture and implementation decisions

  • Own the user experience from conception through deployment

  • Collaborate with product and backend teams to translate system capabilities into intuitive interfaces

  • Establish patterns and best practices for frontend development

What We're Looking For

  • Strong frontend engineering fundamentals and design sensibility

  • Experience building complex, performant user interfaces

  • Passion for making technical concepts accessible to diverse users

  • Ability to think creatively about interaction design and user experience

  • Experience with distributed systems or infrastructure tooling (nice to have)
