Why We’re Hiring This Role:
We’re hiring a senior frontend engineer in San Francisco to raise the quality of the experiences customers use to build and operate voice AI agents.
This role will shape frontend experiences across call health and LLM observability, reporting, and analytics - a broad product surface with significant room for ownership.
You’ll shape data-heavy dashboards and call logs used by thousands of monthly active users, making complex, real-time workflows fast, accessible, and trustworthy.
What You’ll Do:
30 Days: Ramp up on Vapi’s frontend stack and Agent Loop/Observe. Build context with engineering, product, and design, learn how dashboards and call logs connect to backend services, and ship a meaningful improvement.
60 Days: Take end-to-end ownership of a core workflow in call health/LLM observability or reporting and analytics. Deliver production React, TypeScript, and Tailwind work with strong API integration, testing, and measurable improvements to performance, accessibility, or usability.
90 Days: Become the primary frontend owner for your area. Establish reusable patterns in the design system and Storybook, improve how data-intensive and real-time interfaces scale, and help the team use agentic coding without compromising craft.
Who You Are:
5+ years of professional software engineering experience with deep frontend expertise and a record of shipping customer-facing products.
Strong command of React, TypeScript, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, browser APIs, and integrating frontend applications with backend services and APIs.
Strong web performance and accessibility fundamentals, including tools such as Chrome DevTools and Lighthouse.
A test-driven approach spanning component, visual, and end-to-end testing, plus experience with Storybook and design systems.
Excellent product and UX judgment and strong collaboration with product and design in fast-moving environments.
Production experience with agentic coding tools and Tailwind CSS. Data-intensive dashboards, complex tables, pagination across millions of rows, or real-time interfaces are a plus.
How We Work:
Build something worthy of love
Craft matters. We aim to build products and experiences customers genuinely love, not just tolerate.
Commit and follow through
We finish what we start and build trust by being people others can count on.
Why not today?
We value urgency and momentum. The fastest path to customer value usually wins.
Seek raw input
We go directly to customers, data, and teammates instead of relying on summaries or assumptions.
It’s our problem
We operate as one team. We share credit, own mistakes together, and support each other when things get hard.
Be direct and kind
We give feedback clearly, respectfully, and without delay.
