TypeScript Frontend Engineer

Want to build the future faster than most people think reasonable? We need engineers to help us transform how people interact with the web.

Silktide is a fast-growing, profitable, self-funded SaaS platform with 4.8 customer love and a 4.9 team score. Now we're redesigning every pixel of our product around modern AI - and we want you steering the UI.

What you'll build

• Lightning-fast dashboards that visualize insights in beautiful ways
• Component libraries (React / Storybook) that make accessibility the default, not an afterthought
• Browser extensions that helps customers understand and fix issues visually

How we work

• Core stack: React / TypeScript, tRPC, Zod
• AI tooling: Cursor, Windsurf, OpenAI & OSS LLMs, MCP
• Culture: ship often; own the outcome; debate ideas, not egos

You'll thrive here if you...

• Have 3 + years building production React apps (SPA or SSR)
• Sweat bundle size, Web Vitals and a11y as much as features
• Enjoy typed end-to-end APIs (tRPC, GraphQL or similar)
• Like small teams, fast decisions and deleting code as much as writing it
• Speak up when something's wrong and jump in to fix it
• Bonus points for design-systems experience, animation chops (Framer), or AI side-projects.

You won't love it here if you...

• Need a spec before touching the keyboard
• Avoid honest feedback - in every direction
• Prefer 10 planning to 1 shipping

Location & lifestyle

• Hybrid in downtown Austin - 3 days a week at our dog-friendly office in the historic Littlefield Building, 106 E 6th St (6th & Congress) with 24/7 parking
• Walk-out access to the city's best tacos, coffee, live music and Lady Bird Lake trails

What you'll get

• Top-spec MacBook Pro (M4 or better)
• Private Health / Dental / Vision + monthly wellness allowance
• 401(k) with company match
• 20 days PTO + US holidays (vacation grows with tenure)
• Flexible hours, casual dress, weekly team lunches, monthly outings

The fine print

• Must be eligible to work in the United States without sponsorship now or in the future.
