About AtomFlo
AtomFlo is building an AI-native Work Operating System that brings Projects, Chat, Documents, CRM, Communication, Marketing, Automation, and other business workflows together in one unified platform.
Our goal is to eliminate fragmented business tools and give modern teams one intelligent platform to run their entire business.
We are currently building our founding engineering team and are looking for a Backend Engineer who wants to take ownership, work closely with the CTO and product team, and help build AtomFlo from the ground up.
About the Role
As a Frontend Engineer, you will be responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining the user-facing web application for AtomFlo.
This is not a traditional maintenance role. You will be involved in building new product features, creating reusable frontend architecture, integrating APIs, solving complex UI problems, and improving application performance and usability.
You should be comfortable working independently, understanding product requirements, making practical technical decisions, and collaborating with the CTO and Product team to deliver production-quality features.
What You'll Work On
Depending on the product roadmap, you may contribute to:
- AtomFlo Projects and Boards
- Chat and collaboration interfaces
- Workspace and dashboard experiences
- Authentication and onboarding
- CRM and business interfaces
- Documents and productivity experiences
- Notifications and activity feeds
- AI-powered product experiences
- Responsive web application experiences
- Reusable UI components and design systems
- API integrations
- Frontend performance and reliability
Key Responsibilities
- Design and develop scalable, maintainable frontend features using React and TypeScript.
- Translate Figma designs, PRDs, and product requirements into high-quality user experiences.
- Build reusable components and establish consistent frontend patterns.
- Integrate REST APIs and manage loading, error, and empty states effectively.
- Work closely with Backend Engineers to define and consume API contracts.
- Implement authentication, permissions, and role-aware user experiences.
- Manage frontend state and application data efficiently.
- Optimise application performance, responsiveness, and usability.
- Write maintainable and testable frontend code.
- Debug complex frontend issues and identify root causes.
- Participate in architecture and technical discussions with the CTO and engineering team.
- Conduct and participate in code reviews.
- Maintain frontend documentation and technical standards.
- Identify technical debt and proactively recommend improvements.
- Collaborate closely with Product, Design, Backend, AI, and other engineering team members.
- Contribute to establishing scalable frontend architecture as AtomFlo grows.
