Job description

At Gigs, we're building the operating system for mobile services—a platform that lets tech companies embed global connectivity into their products effortlessly.

Just as Stripe lets any business add a payment button in seconds, Gigs empowers platforms to weave in connectivity—bridging the traditional world of telecom with modern tech. From fintechs launching mobile services to HR platforms offering work phone plans, we automate provisioning and remove telecom complexity.

Our team of around 150 people across the US and Europe, backed by nearly $100 million in funding from Ribbit Capital, Google, and Y Combinator. As one of the fastest-growing tech companies, bringing together early-stage engineers, product builders, and business athletes from companies like Stripe, Airbnb, and Shopify. We’re tackling deep technical and regulatory challenges to make connectivity truly seamless.

If you’re driven by curiosity, creativity, and the chance to shape the future of telecom, we’d love to hear from you.

Things We Care About

We are building in a highly complex space and tackling a massive problem. We want people who lean in when things get hard.

• Speed. We move and we ship. We set bold deadlines and treat every week like it matters.
• Ownership. If you see something broken, fix it. We don't wait for permission.
• Customer Obsession. Our customers' product is our product.
• Ambiguity. We're building frontier technology in a complex domain. You'll need sound judgement and good instincts to make decisions without complete information.
• First principles. We don't ask how things have been done before. We ask why they were done that way at all.

The Role

• You will help build consumer-facing products to deliver the best experience for our customers and their users.
• You will bring new ideas to directly shape our app development and products beyond our established work.
• You will work with a modern tech stack using Next.js, React, TypeScript and Tailwind CSS.
• You will use your skills for Frontend and Backend technologies built on top of Next.js.
• You will take ownership of features from planning and implementing to shipping and optimizing.
• You will work closely with our UI/UX team to develop the best possible experiences for our users.
• You will help design maintainable and scalable software architectures.
• You will give feedback, ideas, and code reviews to your colleagues.
• You will collaborate with colleagues across the engineering organization through cross-functional working groups and our RFC process.

Salary range for Senior Engineer: $205,000 - $235,000

(The final offer depends on your background, skills, and how you perform through the process. We're open to considering mid, senior and staff-level candidates, which may result in an adjustment to the scope and compensation)

What We Are Looking For

• You have advanced experience building web apps using React. You are a TypeScript pro, know your way around Next.js, and can implement common and advanced React patterns. You’ve been doing this for 5+ years. Working with git is natural for you.
• You use AI as a core part of how you work, not an occasional shortcut. That means prompting agents with context and intent, reviewing what they produce critically, and knowing when to push back. You can explain the code an agent wrote, catch when it oversteps the ask, and form your own opinion on whether the output is actually good. You're curious about how the tooling is evolving and actively working to get better at it.
• You enjoy building best-in-class experiences. You know what makes apps excellent, you can give your input and are able to implement the best possible UX.
• You have built and maintained scalable apps. You love to build things for scale and have experience in designing app architectures and writing high-quality code.
• You enjoy building a product from scratch. This means high involvement in the design process and understanding what customers want and users need.
• You love learning technologies as you go. You always want to find the right tool for the job, and not only follow what you already know.
• You care about more than engineering quality. Whatever you do, needs to have a business impact. You can make trade-offs between speed and quality.
• You are an all-rounder: You're fluent with RESTful APIs, worked with Docker, GCP, GitHub Actions, Cypress, or Testing Library, and have some experience with Ruby on Rails.
• Nice to have: You've shipped and scaled AI features to production. Not just as demos, but as things real users depend on

Work At Gigs

At Gigs, we value in-person collaboration. We believe the best ideas, decisions, and relationships are built when teams spend meaningful time together, and our culture is designed around that belief. We support flexibility where it makes sense. Some focused work can be done remotely, and not every role or week looks the same. You should expect regular time in one of our hubs, as well as occasional travel for team workshops, customer meetings, and Gigs Republic, our bi-annual company off-site. Our offices are designed to feel like home-inspired workspaces, with plants, thoughtful tools, and small, tight-knit teams that make collaboration feel natural, energizing, and effective.

What We Offer

At Gigs, we believe in rewarding excellence. We offer competitive compensation and stock options because we see you as a true partner in our growth. We also provide stipends for your home office or work setup, a budget for learning and development to fuel your career, and of course, a free phone and international data plan
