What We’d Like

  • Experience with React, Typescript, and SCSS
  • Experience contributing to or maintaining an open source package

We believe that passion and drive are just as important as experience, and if you’re excited about the problem we’re solving, we’d encourage you to apply - even if you don't fit the exact profile. We want someone who is a creative problem-solver, has a strong work ethic, and is excited about the opportunity to help build a successful company from the ground up. If you are a driven individual who is eager to make a real impact, and maybe start your own company someday, we want to hear from you!
