  3. 22 team members - we're a lean team that ships constantly
  4. San Francisco based - most of us are in office ~3 days a week

What we're looking for

We're looking for an experienced frontend focused engineer to join our team of 5.

We're looking for candidates from diverse backgrounds who are interested in:

  1. Developing the core foundation of a realtime collaborative web app using CRDTs and WebSockets
  2. Building complex AI workflows into the product
  3. Moving fast and shipping to production daily
  4. Thinking about frontend performance as a top priority
  5. Building sophisticated and performant drag and drop interfaces
  6. Debugging thorny and complex bugs without much to go on
  7. Reading and suggesting improvements to open source projects that are at the core of the Gamma web application
  8. Building out integrations and embedded apps

Requirements

Must Have

  1. 5+ years experience as a frontend software engineer
  2. A strong understanding of:
    1. How mutation observers and event propagation work
    2. Experience with the state management in React, preferably with Redux
    3. Strong grasp of computer science fundamentals (e.g. you're capable of writing vanilla JS instead of using lodash or jQuery)
    4. Experience working in large complex production scale frontend codebases
    5. Experience working with mature APIs (REST or GraphQL)

Nice to Have

  1. Experience with ProseMirror or other document editor frameworks
  2. Experience with large language models and AI prompting
  3. Experience programming with Typescript
  4. Experience with Prisma and Apollo GraphQL
  5. Contributions to open source projects (big or small)
  6. Experience with websockets and realtime data synchronization
  7. Experience with Node, NestJS, or Express
  8. Experience with NextJS

Our Stack

While this role is frontend focused, you'll inevitably be working across the entire product. Fortunately, we're building a full Typescript stack centered around some of the most modern and popular technologies:

clever-swartz-h92pv by zleach using @chakra-ui/react, @emotion/react, @emotion/styled, @fortawesome/fontawesome-svg-core, @fortawesome/free-solid-svg-icons, @fortawesome/react-fontawesome, @react-spring/web, chance, framer-motion

Why Gamma?

  1. Get in on the ground floor. You'll be joining early enough to set the course of our company and change how millions of people around the world express themselves.
  2. Generous compensation and benefits. We're well funded and offer medical, dental, and vision benefits.
  3. Experienced mentors and peers. We've all seen success and failure and care deeply about building a sustainable culture and business.
  4. Unlimited PTO. We're flexible and encourage everyone to take time off as needed.
  5. Family friendly. We offer 3 months parental leave and flexible hours.
  6. A beautiful office in sunny Potrero Hill. There's ample parking and great restaurants nearby.
