The Pitch

Slate is where brand social teams create together. Our collaboration features — co-editing, commenting, approvals, and shared workspaces — are what make Slate a team tool, not just an editor. We need a Full Stack Engineer to own and extend the collaboration experience so teams can move faster without stepping on each other's work.

What You'll Actually DoOwn the Collaboration feature area
  • Build and evolve real-time collaboration features: co-editing, presence indicators, commenting, and approval workflows

  • Design and build the UI systems that make multi-user workflows feel seamless and intuitive

  • Work closely with the design team to ship experiences that handle the complexity of teamwork without feeling complex

Build across the stack
  • Build the APIs and services that power collaboration — real-time sync, permissions, notifications

  • Build the connective tissue between collaboration features and the editor, asset library, and publishing workflows

  • Collaborate with the editor team on shared primitives and APIs

  • Ensure collaboration features work reliably across different team sizes, permissions, and content types

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 IfYou have the experience:
  • 5+ years of engineering experience, with a track record of shipping product across the stack

  • Strong TypeScript skills on both frontend and backend (Node.js)

  • Angular experience is a plus but not required

  • Experience building collaboration features, real-time systems, or multi-user workflows is a strong plus

You've done work like this before:
  • Built complex, stateful UI features that handle concurrent users and real-time updates

  • Worked on commenting systems, approval workflows, or shared workspace features

  • Dealt with the UI challenges of presence, conflict resolution, and async communication

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

Tech Stack

TypeScript, Angular, RxJS, NgRx, Node.js, CSS, Canvas API

The Details
  • Location: Remote, anywhere from EST (UTC-5) to UTC+2

  • Reporting to: Maciej Kucharek, Head of Engineering

  • Our thoughts on AI: We believe that AI assisted software engineering is the future of our industry. We also believe humans will have a fundamental role in responsibly scaling the use of AI to move exponentially faster while keeping the quality bar high.

Compensation:
  • $80–185k USD base (flexible based on experience and location)

  • Equity options

  • Unlimited PTO (we actually take it)

  • $200/month wellness stipend

  • Health insurance stipend

  • Home office budget
