## About the role

You’ll own the full-stack development of the Better Auth Infrastructure dashboard, the control plane our customers use to manage their auth deployments. Support teams use it to resolve user issues, operations teams use it to monitor activity, and developers use it to configure, extend, and trust their setup.

## What they're looking for

- Experience level — 5+ years full-stack engineering experience with React and TypeScript, you’re comfortable with Next.js App Router and know how to reason about server vs. client rendering boundaries
- Ownership — you can take an ambiguous product area, define the right direction, and drive it to a high-quality result
- Product instinct — you think about what the user is trying to accomplish, not just what you were asked to build
- Design sensibility — you can create clean, functional, high-signal UI without a designer handing you every pixel
- Full-stack comfort — you’re comfortable moving across the stack, from API routes and database queries to production debugging and performance work
- Attention to detail — loading states, empty states, error handling, permissions, responsiveness, and polish matter to you
