Senior Frontend Developer

About the job:

Notch is looking for Really Good Developers that want to create Really Good software.

We are creating an AI agent management platform for customer support.

Our platform processes 100Ks of messages every day to give our customers inhumanely fast and accurate responses.

Our AI management system enables very granular control to the companies that use our product, allowing our system to handle complex decisions with the best accuracy in the market.

We're at the forefront of AI agent development. Our product needs a team that can implement the best architectures, designs, UX and creative ideas.

We're looking for people who live and breathe user experience. If you love obsessing over minute details, if you know how hard it is to create something intuitive and simple, if you have such a strong grasp of the foundations of web technology and React that Tanner Linsley comes to you for advice, if you've ever fought to lower a bundle chunk size to 5kb, if you dream of the browser Dev Tools when you sleep, if you have a strong opinion of LCP vs CLS - this job is for you!

You will lead core decisions and implementation efforts in the team - from choosing our techstack through growing it to easily support scale, to hiring, teaching and supporting engineers with less experience or know-how.

You will be one of the first members of a small, commando-like, R&D team.

What will you do:

Lead the design, architecture, and development of our frontend systems using React, TypeScript, and modern tools.
Create accessible, responsive, and intuitive components that elevate the user experience.
Choose and grow our tech stack to support scale, ensuring fast and reliable performance.
Mentor and guide less experienced engineers, fostering a collaborative and growth-oriented team.
Optimize performance, lower bundle sizes, and ensure seamless user interactions.
Out Tech stack: React (hooks), TypeScript, styled-components, TanStack Query, Vite.

Our webapp techstack:

Multiplayer web app architecture
Local-first methodology

Requirements:

you have 3+ years of modern frontend-focused experience (React or other SPA framework, SASS/LESS/css-in-js, HTML5)
you have 1+ years of Typescript experience
you get annoyed at bad user experiences
you believe a small, dedicated team is 10x better than a big team
