Description

Remote Front-End Developer (Startup Environment)

Introduction: Build Bold Ideas into Digital Realities

Are you driven by the thrill of transforming bold concepts into seamless digital interfaces? Do you thrive in a startup culture where ideas move fast and your code directly shapes the user journey? We’re seeking a Remote Front-End Developer who’s eager to work in a nimble, collaborative environment and take ownership of their craft. With an annual salary of $75,000, this opportunity is ideal for someone who enjoys creating user-first, responsive web experiences that bring innovation to life.

In this role, you won’t be a small cog in a massive machine—you’ll be an essential contributor to a team redefining the way products are built and scaled in early-stage companies. This is your chance to be a cornerstone developer shaping MVPs, launching new features, and iterating fast based on honest user feedback.

Key Responsibilities: What You'll Be Doing

  • Design, develop, and maintain dynamic, responsive user interfaces using React, Vue, or other modern JavaScript frameworks.
  • Collaborate with product owners, designers, and back-end engineers to turn product requirements into intuitive experiences.
  • Translate UI/UX design wireframes into clean, maintainable code that reflects real-world use cases.
  • Optimize front-end performance, reduce page load times, and ensure cross-browser and cross-device consistency.
  • Participate in agile development sprints, providing estimates, code reviews, and feature testing.
  • Integrate APIs and work with RESTful services to connect front-end components to backend systems.
  • Champion accessibility, mobile responsiveness, and design systems in every project
  • Proactively identify UI/UX bottlenecks and propose improvements based on data and user behavior.

Startup Work Environment: Fast-Paced, Flexible, Foundational

Joining a startup means flexibility, agility, and the freedom to help shape how things get done. We value initiative and encourage experimentation. Every feature you build, every bug you squash, and every enhancement you push out matter in real time.

  • Location-independent role with the freedom to operate wherever you're most productive
  • Daily stand-ups and async collaboration through Slack, Zoom, and Notion
  • Flat hierarchy and open communication, where your voice is heard from day one
  • Cross-functional exposure: you’ll work closely not just with engineering, but with marketing, product, and customer success
  • A culture that values progress over perfection—we iterate rapidly and celebrate progress

Tools and Technologies You’ll Use

We’re constantly evolving our tech stack, and you’ll have input into what gets used. Currently, our front-end environment includes:

  • JavaScript/TypeScript (React or Vue preferred)
  • Tailwind CSS and Sass for styling
  • Vite/Webpack for bundling and development
  • Git and GitHub for version control
  • Figma for design handoffs
  • Storybook for UI component development
  • CI/CD pipelines via GitHub Actions

Your comfort with these tools—or eagerness to master them—will help you integrate quickly and thrive.

Qualifications: What We're Looking For

  • 2+ years of experience as a Front-End Developer, preferably in a startup or lean team environment
  • Strong knowledge of modern JavaScript and at least one front-end framework (e.g., React, Vue, or Angular)
  • A strong eye for design, spacing, alignment, and component reusability
  • Comfortable managing tasks autonomously in a remote-first setting while engaging with a distributed team
  • Clear communicator who can document decisions and explain technical trade-offs
  • Experience with version control platforms like Git
  • Comfortable with remote tools and async workflows
  • Bonus if you’ve contributed to open-source projects or built personal side projects that reflect your passion for development

Growth Opportunities: Shape More Than Just the Product

This isn’t just a job—it’s a career chapter where you’ll grow as we grow. As our platform and team scale, you’ll have opportunities to:

  • Lead front-end architecture decisions for new features
  • Mentor junior developers as the team expands
  • Contribute to product strategy with your insights from user experience and interface behavior
  • Get exposure to full-stack development or DevOps if you’re curious to stretch your skill set
  • Be part of a culture that values learning—take advantage of our professional development budget, frequent code walkthroughs, and learning hours.

We believe in investing in people, not just projects. Your success is our success.

Why You’ll Love Working Here

  • Impact: Every line of code you write goes live fast and affects real users
  • Flexibility: Work remotely with the hours that suit your most productive self
  • Autonomy: Own your features from ideation to release without micromanagement
  • Innovation: Collaborate with a passionate team committed to building something fresh, not replicating the status quo
  • Respect: You’ll work in a team where everyone’s contribution is valued equally

We’re not offering a job that keeps the lights on—we’re offering an opportunity to build something meaningful with others who care deeply about the work they do.
