We’re looking for an experienced software engineer who embraces the breadth of responsibilities that come with a senior full-stack role. You’ll collect and prioritize feedback directly from customers, figure out the best way to solve their problems, and drive the work to get it done.

We’d never say something like “deep cross-functional impact” out loud, but our CEO does routinely ship code and our UI engineer is currently editing this job posting, so draw your own conclusions there. We highly value the ability to step up and solve the problem at hand with an entrepreneurial spirit, a designer's eye for detail, and the rigor of an engineer whose cell number is saved in PagerDuty.

In practical terms, we want you to help with:

  • Building and collaborating on the launch of Frigade's AI-powered user assistance.
  • Leveling up the network/data layer that feeds our React SDK.
  • Building out and refining the functionality of our web app.
  • Meaningfully contributing to Frigade’s vision and strategy.
  • Working directly with our growing list of enterprise and mid-market customers to triage bugs, interpret feedback, and ship improvements.

Why work with us?

  • We're well funded by top investors and quickly growing.
  • We're a small team with experience at companies like LinkedIn, Discord, Microsoft, Strava, and more.
  • Our product impacts millions of end-users at some of the coolest companies across different verticals.
  • We take pride in our work and in sweating the details. We also like to laugh, play games, and generally not take ourselves too seriously.
  • We invest in our team culture and we enjoy working in-person 3-4 days a week in a nicely designed SF office space.
  • There are regularly opportunities to work on areas of particular passion/interest outside your normal job function.
  • You will build expertise in product growth, a highly relevant and in-demand domain for future roles/companies.

Need to have:

  • Proficiency with TypeScript, React, and Node.js
  • Strong grasp of modern web development practices
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills
  • Team player who values shared success and collective growth

Nice to have:

  • Handiness with the tools in our stack (Next.js, AWS, Docker, Postgres) or their equivalents
  • Passion for developer tools and ecosystems
  • Experience building with LLMs and custom RAG pipelines
  • Previous tours of duty at startups

Perks and benefits:

  • Competitive salary and equity options
  • Premium health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Free lunch and snacks
  • Free access to office gym

Look, there are currently three of us total full-time, so let’s be real here:

  • We don’t have a PTO policy, we just talk to each other about the time off that we need.
  • We spend money on Apple Cinema Displays and great headphones and software licenses because these things help us do our best work.
  • Whoever notices that we’re low on snacks or Liquid Death orders more on their Brex card — just don’t forget that Green Guillotine runs out way faster than Dead Billionaire.
  • We make sure that we take time out to grab dinner/drinks and celebrate our wins. Startups are hard, we try to be diligent about recharging our sanity reserves.
