Job description

Expressions of Interest: Senior Software Engineer - Frontend

This isn’t a live role - yet. We’re always looking to meet sharp humans who see the world a little differently and want to help us reimagine how people connect. If the role you’re looking for isn’t listed right now, this is your chance to raise your hand early. We’ll reach out when something opens up that matches your energy, your skills, and where we’re headed next.

What is Blinq?

Blinq is building the fastest, most intuitive way to share who you are and remember who you meet. What started as the world’s #1 digital business card is now the starting point for over 50 million new relationships a year - and growing at unicorn pace.

Our vision is to build the world’s intelligence layer for professional relationships - one that remembers for you, prompts when it matters, and keeps you in play. If that’s the kind of scale and ambition you want to be part of, you’re in the right place.

Why You’ll Love It Here

• Rapid growth: Doubling ARR every few months, expanding our product surface, and rapidly building our team across Sydney, San Francisco, Melbourne, and New York.
• Well-resourced: $45m+ raised from Blackbird, Touring Capital, Hubspot Ventures, and Square Peg - we’re continuously investing in the people and tools that fuel our mission.
• A rare moment to join: We’re hitting an inflection point - big enough to have momentum, small enough for you to shape the journey.
• Customers love it: 140k+ reviews and a 4.9/5 rating on the App Store - people around the world rely on Blinq to make that first interaction count.
• We work in person, on purpose: We believe creativity and energy are better face-to-face - so we spend 3 days a week in the office and the rest where you work best.

Engineering at Blinq

Our engineering team is the engine behind Blinq’s success. We’re building tools that make sharing who you are instant and human. Every line of code, every release, and every experiment is focused on driving meaningful impact. If you thrive on solving complex, high-impact problems with a tight-knit team, you’ll feel right at home here.

Role & Impact

As a Senior Frontend Engineer at Blinq, you’ll lead feature development across our customer-facing web experiences. You’ll work hands-on in React and Node.js to deliver fast, scalable, and intuitive UIs collaborating closely with design and backend teams to ensure our experiences feel seamless across surfaces.

What You’ll Do

• Build and maintain complex frontend features using React and TypeScript
• Collaborate with product, design, and backend (node.JS) engineers to ship polished features
• Drive UI performance, accessibility, and cross-device quality
• Contribute to component libraries and internal tooling to support scale
• Lead technical discussions, mentor mid-level engineers, and set quality standards

What You’ll Bring

• 5+ years of experience building modern web applications
• Deep proficiency in React, TypeScript, and frontend architecture
• Experience collaborating with backend engineers using Node.JS APIs
• Familiarity with CI/CD workflows and cloud platforms (we use GCP)
• Strong eye for UI/UX, with a commitment to usability and performance

What You Get

We hold a high bar and move with intent. You’ll get the clarity, trust, and ownership to meet it - and a team that pushes to do the best work of our lives. We back that with:

• Equity & ownership: We’re building something massive, and we want you to share in the upside. Genuinely.
• Competitive salary & growth path: As Blinq grows, your role and compensation grow with it - no glass ceilings here.
• Generous paid time off: At least 20 days fully disconnect each year, with a flexible policy beyond that.
• Parental leave that grows with you: 12 to 26 weeks full pay, based on tenure.
• Free food: Enjoy daily breakfast and lunch at some of our offices, plus an always-stocked snack bar.
