Job description

Join Vetcove and help modernize the future of veterinary software and the pet parent healthcare experience. Our suite of platforms features a market-leading procurement marketplace, an ultra-modern home delivery ecommerce experience, and a next-generation practice management system. More than 25,000 hospitals across all 50 states rely on Vetcove daily, supporting tens of thousands of veterinarians who care for tens of millions of pets each year.

We are modernizing the 50 billion dollar plus animal health industry by giving veterinary organizations the tools to focus more on patient care. Backed by Y Combinator and top venture investors in Silicon Valley, New York and Miami, Vetcove is a fast-growing, mission-driven company. We are searching for talented and passionate people who want to help shape the future of veterinary care.

About the Position

As a Staff Design Engineer at Vetcove, you’ll sit at the intersection of design and engineering. We believe the best user experiences, especially for our furry friends and the veterinarians that care for them, arise from engineers being intimately involved in the design process from the very first wireframe through pixel perfection. You’ll work closely with the design team to brainstorm and iterate on feature enhancements and new user experiences, ensuring a high quality implementation. You’ll be responsible for the highest level of polish across Vetcove’s desktop and mobile applications.

What we are looking for:

We believe there are a couple traits that will make you perfect for this role:

• You have an extraordinary attention to detail. Every pixel matters to you.

• You love React, and love building new React components. You have several years experience working with React and using the latest React features.

• You are a CSS guru. You love the challenge of building complex interactions purely through CSS.

• You truly love design and are passionate about exploring the latest design and interaction trends.

• A passion for pets is always a big plus, but certainly not required!

What you’ll do:

• Collaborate closely with product designers in designing new features

• Bring Figma designs to life by implementing modular, reusable React components

• Implement interactions using highly flexible and performant CSS code

• Experiment with animations and micro-interactions that are best prototyped through code

• Work closely with the front end engineering team to bridge front end logic with design

You should have:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.

• At least 3 years of experience in software development, including experience in building a professionally successful production application using React.

• A set of front end components and or designs you’ve implemented that you can share!
