Job Description
Toast is looking for a Developer to join our small but mighty all-women team. This is a hands-on role for someone who loves clean code, thrives in a fast-moving startup environment, and gets energy from building things that actually matter. You will own the frontend experience of our recruitment platform, work directly alongside the founding engineer as a true technical partner, and help shape the product from the inside out. Our stack is modern, our roadmap is ambitious, and we are moving fast. If you are self-directed, detail-obsessed, and ready to roll up your sleeves, we want to hear from you.
Responsibilities
- Build, maintain, and iterate on the Toast portal frontend across candidate, client, and internal-facing surfaces
- Own the CMS integration layer for content-driven pages and new features using Sanity
- Implement and maintain payment and subscription UI flows through Stripe, handling both frontend and backend integration with care and precision
- Build and refine AI-powered chat interfaces and interactive product features
- Develop and maintain job board listing, search, and application experiences
- Build internal tools and dashboards for the operations team
- Ensure responsive design, accessibility, and cross-browser consistency across the application
- Write and maintain frontend tests and participate in code review following established Git and CI/CD workflows
- Monitor and optimize frontend performance and page load times on an ongoing basis
- Integrate with third-party APIs and services as the platform scales and new tools are introduced
- Collaborate with the founding engineer on technical decisions and architecture, contributing to sprint planning and feature scoping as a genuine thought partner
- Share in troubleshooting and debugging production issues, including on-call responsibility
Requirements
- Strong proficiency in React and Next.js, including performance optimization and ideally some architectural experience
- TypeScript fluency, as the frontend codebase is almost exclusively TypeScript
- Solid understanding of Stripe, including both frontend and backend integration patterns
- Experience with Tailwind CSS
- Familiarity with CMS platforms, with Sanity experience being a strong asset
- Demonstrated ability to own responsive design end to end, not just implement it when asked
- Full-stack capability with a front-end lean, comfortable contributing across the stack while primarily owning the frontend
- Familiarity with AWS is a nice-to-have, as the platform is moving in that direction
- A figure-it-out mentality: detail-oriented, self-directed, and able to work through ambiguous problems without hand-holding
- Someone who takes ownership seriously and treats their work as a craft, not a task list
Benefits
- Comprehensive health benefits
- Unlimited vacation, we trust you to take the time you need
- A remote-first work environment, with occasional in-person events
- This is an outcomes-based role. You will have flexibility in how you structure your time, but consistent availability during core business hours is expected
- A close-knit, all-women team that supports and champions each other
- Real ownership over your work from day one, at a company building something genuinely new in the recruitment technology space
