Front End Engineer

Tailscale, Remote (United States) +1

The role

We’re seeking a skilled and diligent full-time Frontend Engineer to join our growing team. You will work as part of our team to:

Own the technical direction and architecture of Tailscale’s next-generation web console
Build frontend infrastructure and platform capabilities that enable multiple Tailscale products to ship within a unified console experience
Bring a special focus to identity-adjacent frontend systems, including authentication, session management, secure cross-origin integrations, and product surfaces that span multiple services

Because we’re a fully remote company building a highly technical product, we’re looking for someone who can move fluidly between product engineering and platform engineering. This role sits at an important intersection of user experience, browser security, developer tooling, and internal platform design. The ability to think strategically, make pragmatic architecture decisions, collaborate across engineering, design, growth, and infrastructure, and help other teams build with confidence is essential.

Remote first company—most of our teams work fully remotely.

We support intentional in-person connection through team travel and distributed collaboration.
Support for your personal and professional development. Grow your career thoughtfully with $1500 USD annually for professional development, or take advantage of mentorship, coaching, and internal promotion opportunities.
Paid time off and a healthy work-life integration. Our flexible, paid time off program supports you for any situation life throws your way, whether moving homes or travelling the world!
A build-your-own home office setup. You choose your own company-owned laptop (Mac or PC), receive a monthly home internet reimbursement, and $500 USD to customize your workstation to make it your own.
Paid parental leave program. We care about your life outside of work and encourage new parents to take advantage of parental leave top-ups (20 weeks for birthing parents, 16 weeks for non-birthing parents).
