Here are some projects you might help ship in your first month:
Simplify the planning workflow, making it more intuitive while keeping power-user depth.
Rework and improve the performance and capabilities of our powerful task lists.
Ship AI-assisted automations and workflows for tasks and projects.

Your qualification
You bring strong frontend experience (5+ years) building complex web apps. Angular experience is a plus, but we value engineers who learn fast and bring product thinking from any modern framework.
You are experienced building delightful user-facing features.
You have a good understanding of modern frontend architecture, including state management, API integration, testing, and performance optimization.
You have good experience with modern AI-assisted software development.
You are comfortable working cross-functionally and contributing to product and technical discussions.
You have strong English communication skills (C1 level written and spoken).
What Makes You Successful In This Role
You take ownership of your projects and drive them to completion. Think small PRs, frequent shipping, continuous iteration. This is what delivers customer value.
You challenge product decisions with technical insight and always aim for the best solution. Engineers co-own discovery: youâll join problem framing, not just solution building.
You communicate clearly and collaborate effectively across teams, which is particularly important in our hybrid setup.
You have a strong eye for design consistency and a deep sense of user empathy. You spot friction in workflows, spot typos and weird default texts and identify places where we can delight our users.
You care about maintainability, accessibility, and performance. Your code reviews focus on DX and UX, not just correctness.
You propose experiments and improvement ideas based on data and customer feedback beyond your direct ownership scope to improve the entire product, team and company.

Team culture: Building a team of smart, communicative, and fun experts is our top priority. If youâve checked us out, youâve probably noticed how seriously we take team culture.
Ownership: Startup life is a wild ride, but itâs full of excitement and opportunities for growth. The awork team is growing and learning together. Everyone has their own area of responsibility where they are encouraged to make decisions.
Additional details
Weâre a hybrid team, so weâre looking for someone comfortable with asynchronous communication and collaboration, but also excited to spend time with the team. We use tools like Slack, Zoom, Docs and of course, awork, to stay organized. We love coming together as a teamâwhether remote or in person. In our first chat, weâd be happy to tell you more about our team culture at awork.
