Job description

We’re a remote, product-focused startup building AI- and algorithm-driven systems, and we’re looking for a sharp Frontend Engineer who loves clean interfaces, complex data grids, and polished user experiences.

You’ll own the client-side application end-to-end: from building reusable components to implementing the logic for fast, interactive dashboards, working with a small distributed team across several countries.

What You’ll Do

• Build Core UI: Develop responsive web apps using React and Material UI (MUI).
• Master the Data Grid: A huge part of our product involves data tables. You will implement:
• Server-side pagination and sorting.
• Complex column filters (dropdowns, autocomplete, date ranges).
• User customization (letting users resize columns, reorder them, and save their layout)
• Create Reusable Components: Write clean code and libraries that we can use across different parts of the app.
• Improve the UX: Don't just follow instructions—suggest better ways to handle data (e.g., "Let's use a sticky header here" or "This needs a loading skeleton").
• Connect the Dots: Integrate with our Django backend via REST APIs, ensuring the UI handles data states (loading, error, empty) gracefully.

What We’re Looking For

• Strong proficiency in React and Material UI.
• Experience building rich data tables (not just simple lists). You know how to handle pagination, filters, and dynamic columns.
• Ability to write clean, reusable code that is easy to debug.
• Attention to detail: You care about alignment, spacing, and how the app feels to the user.

Bonus Points

• Comfortable coding with AI assistants (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.).
• Experience in startups, side projects, or hackathons where you’ve had to ship scrappy solutions fast.
• Familiarity shipping mobile apps with React Native.
