Full Job Description
About the Role
As a UI Engineer at Wispr, you'll own the craft layer of our product. This includes the surfaces, interactions, and details that turn a capable tool into one people love. You'll work directly with product and design to prototype, build, and ship polished interfaces across our voice platform and native actions framework. This is a role for someone who treats visual and interaction quality as a first-class engineering concern.
What are we looking for?
Exceptional UI/UX taste; You have strong opinions about what makes an interface feel right, and the ability to defend them.
Deep empathy for users; You think about how people actually use software, not just how they're supposed to.
Fluency in TypeScript, React, and CSS; Expressive, maintainable frontend code with real attention to detail.
Previous founding or startup experience.
Attention to detail and eagerness to learn.
Aptitude and clarity of thought.
Creativity, excellence in engineering, and code velocity.
Required Knowledge/Skills, Education, and Experience
A portfolio or body of work that demonstrates visual craft; specifically, side projects, open source, or shipped products with a clear point of view (send your best).
Incredible attention to detail on design, animations, and interaction fidelity.
Care towards code quality and UX - you notice when something feels off, and you fix it.
Experience with animation systems (Framer Motion, CSS transitions) and an eye for timing and feel.
Strong programming practices and high-throughput of code across the stack.
