UI Engineer

Job Title: UI Engineer

You'll build Gamma's visual experience: pixel-perfect layouts, smooth animations, and responsive interactions that make the product feel magical. As a Frontend Engineer focused on UI and design systems, you'll partner closely with designers to translate high-fidelity mocks into production-ready, accessible components and build reusable, well-documented component libraries that scale across the product.

Responsibilities:

• Own design system components from foundational elements to complex editor UI primitives, with accessibility built in
• Build pixel-perfect layouts, smooth animations, and responsive interactions across the product
• Implement polished micro-interactions and transitions that make Gamma feel crafted and intentional
• Optimize rendering, bundle size, and interaction responsiveness to maintain 60fps animations
• Solve complex browser challenges including cross-browser compatibility, edge cases, and rendering quirks
• Partner with designers to translate high-fidelity mocks into production-ready components

Requirements:

• 3–5+ years of frontend engineering with deep React expertise and mastery of CSS including flexbox, grid, animations, transforms, and browser quirks
• Sharp eye for detail and craft, with the ability to spot 1px misalignments, janky animations, and inconsistent spacing
• Experience building complex, interactive UIs such as editors, design tools, or animation-heavy applications
• Performance optimization skills across React rendering, CSS performance, and animation frame rates, with experience building reusable, accessible, well-documented component libraries
• Thoughtful approach to user experience including loading states, error handling, and responsive behavior

Compensation Range: The base salary for this full-time position, which spans multiple internal levels depending on qualifications, ranges between $180K - $310K plus benefits & equity.
