Job Description

This is a on-site job in NY

The Role

We’re looking for a Frontend Engineer to lead the design and development of interfaces that feel magical — fast, intuitive, and AI-native. This is a high-impact role working closely with Metal’s founders, GTM team, and fellow engineers to push the boundaries of what’s possible with large language models and real-time investor workflows.

You’ll work across the stack (primarily in React (Next.js) and Tailwind CSS) to build powerful, elegant user experiences. You'll also have the opportunity to integrate directly with our GenAI infrastructure — including a Vespa-powered vector database, agents platform, and more — helping define new UI paradigms that make our intelligence platform feel like an extension of our users' minds.

What You'll Do

• Own core parts of the frontend stack and user interface
• Collaborate with design and product to rapidly prototype new AI-native workflows
• Implement clean, maintainable components with Next.js, Tailwind, and React
• Contribute to system-wide architecture decisions as we scale
• Work across the stack (FE, API, etc) to deliver seamless experiences
• Drive performance, accessibility, and usability improvements
• Shape the company’s engineering culture and standards as an early team member

What We’re Looking For
