About the role

We’re hiring a mid-level Web Engineer to build the web experiences collectors use to discover products, manage their collections, shop drops, and open Instapacks. You’ll work closely with the CTO and product, design, and engineering teams to take features from idea to production. This is a hands-on product engineering role for someone comfortable building modern web applications who can own a feature, make thoughtful technical decisions, and deliver a polished experience. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • You have around 3–5 years of web engineering experience and have shipped meaningful features in production
  • You’re comfortable building with React and TypeScript and have strong fundamentals in JavaScript, HTML, and CSS
  • You can take a feature from a product brief or design through implementation and release without needing every step spelled out
  • You’ve worked with GraphQL or REST APIs and understand data fetching, caching, and client-side state management
  • You know how to build responsive, accessible interfaces and care about the details that make a web experience feel good
  • You can reason through component design, rendering behavior, and performance tradeoffs without overcomplicating the solution
