## Job description

## Overview

Join our rapidly growing AI startup as a Frontend Engineer and own the dashboard that product and growth teams at top consumer apps use every day: visual builders with deeply nested state, drag-and-drop, real-time previews, and analytics. This is the kind of high-craft UI work that is genuinely hard to find elsewhere, on a product whose output ships straight into apps used by millions.

Plotline is backed by Elevation Capital and supports customers like Dream11, Upstox, and Zepto.

## Why This Role Matters

Own the dashboard that powers in-app experiences for 100M+ end users.

Work directly with the engineering team and founders on a small, tight-knit team where ownership is high.

Build UI systems and patterns that scale with our high-growth trajectory.

We're seeking a rare combination of UI craft, strong engineering fundamentals, hands-on execution, and the drive to own surfaces end to end.

## About This Role

Key challenges you'll solve:

Complex Interfaces: Building visual builders with deeply nested state, drag-and-drop, and real-time previews that stay fast and predictable.

Cross-Platform Fidelity: Shipping UI that renders pixel-accurately both natively and in webviews inside mobile apps, where HTML/CSS precision matters.

This is an opportunity to have outsized impact on the product surface every customer touches while building deep expertise in hard UI engineering at a scaling startup.

## Outcomes Expected

Own and scale our dashboard and its visual builders, campaign tools, and analytics views, with the state management and performance to keep them fast.

Ship high-craft, cross-platform UI that renders reliably both natively and in mobile webviews.

## Responsibilities

**Dashboard & Product UI**

Visual Builders: Build and own complex builder interfaces with deeply nested state, drag-and-drop, and real-time previews.

Campaign & Analytics Tools: Ship the campaign tooling and analytics views that product and growth teams use every day.

State & Performance: Manage large, deeply nested client state with a constant eye on performance and responsiveness.

**Quality & Cross-Platform**

Cross-Platform Fidelity: Ensure output renders pixel-accurately both natively and in mobile webviews, where HTML/CSS precision matters.

Craft & Detail: Hold a high bar for UI quality, accessibility, and interaction detail.

Full-Stack Depth: Go deeper into Node.js and GraphQL when the feature calls for it.

## Requirements

**Professional Experience**

2 to 4 years of frontend engineering experience, with a track record of shipping production web apps.

Deep experience with React and TypeScript, ideally on complex, stateful interfaces.

Strong HTML/CSS fundamentals and an eye for cross-browser and cross-platform fidelity.

**Technical Proficiency**

Core Stack: Proficiency with React, Redux, TypeScript, and Next.js.

APIs: Comfort working with GraphQL, and Node.js when you go deeper into the backend.

UI Engineering: Experience with complex state management, drag-and-drop, or builder-style interfaces is a strong plus.

## Core Competencies

**Product Sense**

User Empathy: Builds for product and growth teams, sweating the workflows they live in every day.

Quality Standards: Values craft and detail, and can explain and defend UI tradeoffs.

**Technical Execution**

Self-Sufficiency: Ships complete features end to end, from UI to the API layer.

Performance Instinct: Keeps complex, stateful UIs fast and responsive.

**Startup Agility**

Ownership: Takes high ownership on a small, tight-knit team.

Growth Mindset: Continuously raises the bar based on user feedback and product needs.

Ready to own the dashboard behind experiences for 100M+ users? If you love hard, high-craft UI work, we'd love to hear from you.
