At Gaia:

We exist so that anyone who wants to have a family can try. Our goal is to create 5,000 families by 2025. We are ambitious, brave and hyper-focused when it comes to the means to do this.

The role:

We are looking for our first frontend engineer to work predominantly on our consumer-facing web application. In collaboration with our product, design, ops and other teams you will work on features that reduce the financial stress and burden of fertility treatments.

Our platform predominantly uses TypeScript and the JavaScript ecosystem, with a React SPA and a GraphQL endpoint running on mostly managed AWS services.

What you will be doing:

• Collaborate with designers, product managers, analysts, and other engineers to build new and improve existing features
• Be the most senior individual contributor in our frontend discipline
• Scoping and leading technical projects, laying the groundwork for our products to iteratively evolve and scale
• Aligning our technical decisions with Gaia’s broad initiatives
• Developing and executing against both short- and long-term roadmaps. Making effective tradeoffs that consider business priorities, user experience, and a sustainable technical foundation
• There to uplift the team by improving our internal tools

You’ll be great for this role if you:

• Have a strong technical background, including 5+ years of industry experience building high-quality UI
• Are comfortable working under fluid conditions, seamlessly balancing tactical and strategic considerations
• You enjoy working as part of a small, cross-functional team in close partnership with other disciplines. We don’t work in silos
• You prefer simple solutions and designs over complex ones
• You like to take ownership of complex problems. Our product spans across healthcare, insurance and finance. You will need to find creative solutions and get others on board with them
• You like to understand and solve problems holistically, not only from a technology point of view

Throughout the interview process, we are looking for:

• You can take on big, loosely defined projects, break them down, and deliver them in a predictable way
• You are comfortable working in a constantly changing environment, regularly questioning and challenging what has been done previously
• You are able to understand problems deeply and holistically
• You can communicate complex topics in a concise manner
• You show the potential to mentor other engineers as the team builds
