Full Job Description
What You'll Do:
  • Own frontend across product and marketing surfaces: You will work across both our core product interface and customer-facing web pages, ensuring a cohesive, polished user experience across all touch points. This includes building features in the web app and also collaborating on our website to keep branding and user experience consistent and high-quality.
  • Build content infrastructure that unblocks the team: You'll develop our CMS (we use Sanity) to give content and marketing teams self-serve tooling, structured content models, and preview/staging workflows, so routine changes don't depend on engineering. You'll design content schemas and editing experiences that let non-engineers move quickly and confidently.
  • Champion growth: You'll partner with marketing, sales, and operations to implement analytics and enable experimentation, turning business goals into shipped, instrumented features so we always know what's actually working.
  • Make localization first-class: You'll support localization and internationalization - multilingual content, translation workflows, and the infrastructure behind them, so non-English experiences are genuinely first-class rather than afterthoughts.
  • Treat performance as a feature: You'll own Core Web Vitals, media and asset optimization, and the diagnosis of the subtle issues: layout shift, lazy-loading, video quality, render timing. You care about speed, and you measure it.
  • Hold a high bar for accessibility: You'll champion semantic markup, keyboard navigation, screen-reader support, and WCAG-minded component design, ensuring the site is usable by everyone who visits it.
What You'll Bring:
  • Marketing and growth fluency: You've worked on marketing or growth-facing web before, and you understand the business context - funnels, conversion, SEO, analytics, and A/B testing-not just the code. We care about this more than years of experience or exact seniority.
  • Strong frontend fundamentals: You're fluent in modern JavaScript and TypeScript and React (or a similar framework), with a real sense for UI/UX craft and an instinct for getting the small details right.
  • A genuine commitment to performance and accessibility: You care about both deeply and can point to specific, concrete things you've done to improve them in production.
  • Comfort with structured content: You've worked with a headless CMS and structured content models before. Sanity experience is a plus.
  • Strong cross-functional collaboration: You work well with non-engineers - designers, content writers, and marketers - and can translate their goals into technical work, and technical tradeoffs back into terms they can act on.
Even Better...
  • Localization and i18n experience: You've worked with internationalization systems and translation tooling before.
  • Analytics and experimentation depth: You're familiar with web analytics and experimentation platforms and know how to use them to drive decisions.
  • Third-party integration experience: You've integrated services like video hosting or error monitoring into a content workflow.
What we offer

We want our benefits to reflect our values and offer the following to full-time employees:
  • Flexible (unlimited) paid time off
  • Medical, dental, and vision benefits for you and your family
  • Life insurance and disability benefits
  • Retirement plan dependent on country of employment
