Job description

About Us

We have the easiest way to build a website that your fans will love! We help creators centralize their online brand presences, connect with their audiences and partners in a streamlined way, and better understand how to build and improve their businesses. We're excited to tackle the rapidly growing, $200 billion creator economy. There's a huge opportunity to help creators build the businesses of tomorrow, and we're positioned to build the defining solution.

How the Team Works

AI is a core part of how the engineering team operates: not a productivity hack, but a fundamental shift in how the team scopes, builds, and ships. The team uses AI coding assistants in production workflows, LLMs for planning and spec-writing, and agentic tools to reduce manual toil. Every engineer is expected to work this way and to raise the bar over time. If you're still getting started with AI tooling, this probably isn't the right fit yet. If you have opinions on where it breaks down and you've already changed how you work because of it, the team wants to talk.

About the Role

We're hiring a Senior Full-stack Engineer to lead and own large parts of the product from ideation to implementation. The role is balanced across frontend (React/TypeScript) and backend (Python/Flask). You will build and iterate on AI-powered creator tools, working alongside AI PMs and ML engineers, and be expected to have a point of view on what AI can and can't do in product. You will build products that get millions of page views per day and scale them toward billions, lead frontend development with delightful UI/UX, and create systems that hold up as the platform grows.

What You'll Own

Build and iterate on AI-powered creator tools alongside AI PMs and ML engineers

Build products that get millions of page views per day and scale them toward billions

Lead frontend development with delightful UI/UX

Reach for AI tools as your default starting point: scoping, planning, spec-writing, code generation, debugging, and code review

Requirements Must-Have

5+ years of full-stack engineering experience

AI-native work style as a hard requirement. AI tools are your default starting point. You can speak concretely about how they've changed your output or pace in the last 6 months.

Real production usage of AI coding assistants (Cursor, Copilot, Claude Code, or comparable). Opinions on where they help and where they don't.

Comfort using LLMs beyond code generation: planning, spec-writing, debugging, code review

Proficient in TypeScript to power frontend React applications

Strong Python skills for backend development

Familiarity with SQL and Postgres

Customer-centric mindset with strong empathy for creators

Comfort thriving in ambiguity and scoping solutions with teammates

Based in or willing to relocate to SF or NY. Hybrid, Tuesdays to Thursdays in the office.

Nice-to-Have

Firebase experience

Flask experience

Prior experience at small, fast-paced startups

Experience with high-scale products (millions of page views per day or comparable)
