Frontend Engineer
Bobyard · San Francisco
About this role
**Frontend Engineer** **About Bobyard** Bobyard builds AI systems that automate takeoffs for contractors, saving them dozens of hours per project in an industry still running on spreadsheets and guesswork. Contractors use our product all day—so the interface must be fast, precise, and obvious. We’re Series A, backed by 8VC, Primary, and Pear, and growing fast. **About the role** You’ll work on our hardest UI problem: rendering large construction drawings and dense estimate tables without friction. Think canvas rendering, pan/zoom performance, and tables with hundreds of rows that still feel instant. You don’t need prior experience with canvas or data-dense interfaces—you need strong React/TypeScript fundamentals, real product taste, and the ability to learn quickly and go deep on a problem most junior roles never touch. **What you’ll do** - Build and ship core product UI in **React** and **TypeScript** - Turn rough product direction and designs into polished, production-ready interfaces - Work on **frontend performance** (fast loads, smooth interactions, responsive rendering of large drawings and data-dense tables) - Contribute to a reusable **component library** the team ships on - Work directly with product and design to shape features (not just implement them) - Prototype quickly, gather feedback, and iterate toward the right UX - Diagnose and fix frontend bugs, rendering issues, and state management problems **What we’re looking for** - Strong **React** and modern **CSS** skills - Real design sense (spacing, hierarchy, motion) - Comfortable working from rough product direction - Fluent in **TypeScript**, component architecture, and frontend state management - High ownership mindset - Fast learner who can navigate unfamiliar systems and tools quickly - Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science (or related) or equivalent practical experience **Nice to have** - Experience with data-dense or canvas-heavy interfaces (tables, editors, drawing tools) - Personal projects or open-source work involving performance-sensitive UI - Exposure to construction, real estate, or other “boring industry, real problem” domains **What we offer** - **$130,000–$160,000** base salary (based on experience) - **0.02%–0.04% equity** (4-year vest) - Full-time, **in-person** role in the **SF Bay Area** - A genuinely hard, high-ownership problem from day one **Comp Philosophy** We offer competitive, top-of-market compensation and tailor individual packages based on role, experience, and contributions, alongside performance-based rewards.
