tl;dr: We are an early-stage startup looking for a passionate, experienced front-end engineer to join us in building Ampersand from the ground up. At Ampersand, we're creating tools that give Customer Success teams research superpowers. Details about us, the role, and interview process below.

Salary: CAD$120,000 - CAD$150,000 Equity: 0.2% - 2.0% Location: Fully remote, anywhere in Canada (slight preference for EST)

👨🏿‍💻🧑🏻‍💻 What we do

Glowstick is a mighty, but friendly, text/audio/video analysis platform that lets non-technical Customer Success teams get meaningful qualitative insights from their customer conversations (starting with Zoom calls), so they can uncover mutual value (and the revenue that follows).

We call this "research superpowers", because our approach uses AI/ML to unlock people's ability to scale themselves, and the autonomy to choose when or whether to.

Join us on our quest to product-market fit, as we ship the very first versions of Glowstick!

đź’Ľ The role

Joining this early means you'll have the opportunity to have a massive impact on our product, culture, and direction. You’ll take on complexity and ambiguity, and make hard decisions that will define the shape of a product that hasn’t been built before. You’ll mainly be working with Anwar, our co-founder and CTO, but because we are a small and co-creative team you’ll collaborate with everyone.

What we need from you

Simply put, we’re looking for someone to own the Ampersand front-end.

This means you must have enough work experience with React/NextJS that you’ll feel comfortable taking our (at times vague) problem description, helping come up with the solution, telling us what needs doing — and then doing it. While we have prototyped an initial approach, this will be 0 to 1 kind of work. You’ll be architecting it from scratch.

We’ve approximated this requirement as “having 3-5 years of professional experience building and shipping products with React/NextJS”.

This also means you likely have those same “3-5 years of professional experience designing, implementing and consuming APIs (e.g., Node, Django, GraphQL, Headless CMSs, etc.)” because otherwise, your front-end is just a static webpage, and that won’t do.

Honestly, from a skills perspective, that’s it.

What would be extra from you
