Job Description

Senior Front-End Engineer (Next.js / TypeScript)

Full-Time • On-Site • Los Angeles

Must be a US citizen or permanent resident

Truey is an early-stage startup (pre-seed, MVP nearly ready) building an AI-powered productivity tool for real-time team collaboration . We’re looking for an engineer who can craft fast, pixel-perfect web experiences and speak the language of multiplayer editing.

What You’ll Tackle

  • Own the Next.js web client end-to-end—architecture, performance, Core Web Vitals, accessibility, and pixel perfection.
  • Design & evolve our GraphQL layer (graphql-request + graphql-ws): 5 + years creating schemas, queries, and mutations with type-safe codegen.
  • Ship multiplayer features using CRDTs, OT, WebRTC data channels, or comparable real-time sync protocols (e.g., Yjs, Automerge, ShareDB)—presence cursors, live text, white-boarding, etc.
  • Maintain a reusable Tailwind component library.
  • Test & release : Jest, Playwright, GitHub Actions CI/CD, accessibility checks.
  • Profile & monitor : bundle splitting, Sentry, performance budgets.
  • Collaborate daily with design, product, and a Python/FastAPI backend team spread across four continents.

What Sets You Apart

  • 5 + years React + TypeScript with deep Next.js expertise (SSR, ISR, routing, edge/runtime).
  • Hands-on production experience with CRDTs, OT, WebRTC, Matrix, or similar collaboration protocols—you can explain OT vs. CRDT trade-offs and have integrated at least one library (Yjs, Automerge, ShareDB, etc.).
  • Proven GraphQL mastery (5 + years).
  • Expert eye for pixel-perfect UI and responsive layouts with Tailwind.
  • Clear, concise technical communication .
  • Nice to have: exposure to FastAPI, AWS serverless, or websocket back-ends.

Full-stack engineers with a front-end bias are welcome. If ~60 % of your time has been on the UI and you meet the real-time-collab bar, we want to talk.

Life at Truey

  • Competitive monthly salary (USD) .
  • High-ownership, on-site environment where every commit shapes the product.
  • Hardware & productivity budget from day one.
  • Transparent roadmap and engineering-led culture .

Join us at the ground floor and help define how teams collaborate in real time.
