Job Description

We are on a mission to reinvent how designers work in the AI era. Backed by top investors from OpenAI, Google, Stripe, Notion and Dropbox, we're building the next-generation AI design tool for product teams.

We're hiring a Frontend Architect - WebAssembly & Bundling to own a browser-native execution environment that delivers instant dev experiencesrunning dependencies, tooling, and applications entirely inside the browser with strong isolation and performance.

This is a runtime and systems engineering role, not a typical frontend or OS position. You'll set technical direction and ship production-grade platform infrastructure under real browser constraints.

What You'll Do:

  • Architect a browser runtime (Node-like execution, task orchestration, streaming I/O).
  • Build a high-performance virtual filesystem (in-memory + persistence, caching, module resolution).
  • Integrate and optimize JS/TS tooling pipelines.
  • Drive performance (cold start, incremental updates, memory).
  • Design secure sandboxing for untrusted code.
  • Lead architecture decisions and mentor engineers.

Must-Have Requirements:

  • 812+ years building systems software; 3+ years owning runtime or platform architecture.
  • Strong WebAssembly/WASM experience (ABI boundaries, memory models, host interfaces).
  • Deep browser platform knowledge (Workers, messaging, storage, isolation).
  • Runtime engineering expertise (event loops, scheduling, concurrency, streaming I/O).
  • Performance engineering discipline with measurable results.
  • Security experience running untrusted code in the browser.
  • Proven ability to architect and build production systems.

Benefits:

  • Base Salary: Above market; we've raised a considerable amount of capital and offer competitive cash compensation.
  • Equity: Meaningful stock options.
  • Health Insurance: Best-in-class coverage for the employee and their entire family.
  • Location: San Francisco HQ or Bengaluru Office.
