Senior Frontend Engineer - Brand

Department: Engineering

Location: Remote (UTC-5) to UTC+2, Africa, South America, Europe, USA

Compensation: $95K – $200K • Offers Equity

Employment Type: FullTime

The Pitch

Slate’s brand system is the foundation of every piece of content our customers create. The Brand feature — logos, fonts, colours, templates — ensures every post looks on-brand, without the back-and-forth. We need a Senior Frontend Engineer to own this area, extend it, and make it the most powerful brand management experience in social media tools.

What You’ll Actually Do

Own the Brand feature area

• Build and evolve the brand management experience: brand kits, font management, colour palettes, logo handling, and brand-aware templates

• Design and build the UI systems that enforce brand consistency across Slate’s editor

• Work closely with the design team to ship experiences that feel polished and intuitive

Integrate brand into the editor

• Build the connective tissue between brand assets and the editor so applying brand feels effortless

• Collaborate with the editor team on shared primitives and APIs

• Ensure brand features work reliably across canvas sizes, aspect ratios, and export formats

Raise the quality bar

• Write well-tested, maintainable code in a codebase that’s actively growing

• Contribute to frontend architecture decisions across the team

• Mentor junior engineers through code reviews and design discussions

You’d Be a Great Fit If

You have the experience:

• 5+ years of frontend engineering experience, with a track record of shipping product

• Strong React and TypeScript skills

• Experience building design tooling, creative software, or brand management features is a strong plus

You’ve done work like this before:

• Built complex, stateful UI features that handle rich data (fonts, colours, assets)

• Worked closely with designers to implement pixel-perfect, interaction-rich UIs

• Contributed to or maintained a shared component library or design system

You work the way we work:

• You take ownership of features end-to-end, from design to production

• You care about craft — both in the UI you ship and the code you write

• You use AI tools to move faster and take responsibility for the output
