Frontend Engineer
Coinflow, Chicago
The role
We're hiring a Front End Engineer – not a designer who occasionally codes, and not an engineer who occasionally opens Figma. This person is equally comfortable defining the interaction model for a new feature and shipping the React that powers it. You'll be the first dedicated front end engineering hire at Coinflow, which means you're not inheriting a design system — you're building it.
You'll work directly with the CTO and founding engineers, moving from rough product idea to shipped, polished UI without a handoff in between.
What you will do
- Build and own our design system on top of shadcn/ui and Tailwind — components, tokens, patterns, and documentation that the rest of engineering can build on without asking you first.
- Design and ship full features end-to-end: wireframe or go straight to high-fidelity, build the actual production component, wire it to real data, and iterate based on how it feels in practice.
