Founding Frontend Engineers typically work in early-stage startups, taking on broader responsibilities and shaping the product's frontend from the ground up. In contrast, Frontend Engineers in established companies focus on specific projects within structured teams.

We are hiring a Founding Frontend Engineer to be the tip of the spear for turning Worktrace AI’s ambitious product vision into reality. In this role, you will be a key part of the founding team—ideating, prototyping, and ultimately shipping frontend experiences in cutting‑edge AI products. Along with building, you will identify key areas for engineering investment, build the technical foundation as we scale, and lead by example to build a healthy and strong engineering culture.
What you’ll do
