The team is passionate about giving people the power to own and shape the way they engage with others online.
The client is a plug-and-play online community builder. Think “Shopify for online communities”. The company is building a world where people have the power to own & shape the way they engage with others online.
The platform allows creators, coaches, & online experts to build a thriving community business — with discussions, courses, payments, events, documents, workflows, matchmaking, directories & more — all on their own website.
Why this job is special…
- The successful candidate will be one of the first engineers to join the company—but will be joining a product & codebase that works. The company has hundreds of customers processing thousands of dollars every month. This role offers all the leverage and autonomy of being an early engineer without the burden of building everything from scratch.
- The team consists of individuals who know their craft. Everyone is exceptionally skilled and brings deep experience from their previous roles.
- Typescript is taken seriously. If a candidate is passionate about pragmatically applying type systems & functional patterns, this is the place for them.
- AI agents are here & the company is ready to use them as a force-multiplier. Significant time has been spent building incredibly expressive & flexible application building blocks. AI will allow the team to double down on these through MCP and agentic configuration, providing the magic of tools like Replit & Lovable without the brittleness.

- Working closely with the team to scope & prioritize new features
- Writing modular, maintainable, thoughtful code
