About Vee

Vee is an AI-first startup building intelligent agents to help nonprofits unlock more impact, faster. Our remote-first team is passionate, ambitious, and highly autonomous. We believe in shipping, ownership, and making a difference for organizations doing vital work.

Role Overview

We’re seeking a highly experienced Frontend Clan Lead to take full ownership of Vee’s frontend. This is a senior IC (Individual Contributor) role for someone who wants to set direction, build from scratch, and be hands-on with everything from system design to code delivery. You’ll architect, implement, and own all user-facing technology, setting the standards and guiding the future of our frontend stack.

What You’ll Do

• Full E2E Ownership: Architect, build, and own the entire frontend, from UI components and design systems, through integration with backend and AI services, to deployment and monitoring.

• Lead the Frontend: Act as the go-to authority on all things FE, driving standards for code quality, performance, accessibility, testing, and developer experience.

• DevOps Mindset: Take responsibility for the full software lifecycle. Set up and manage CI/CD pipelines, monitoring, error tracking, performance analytics, and continuous delivery using modern tools.

• AI-Integrated Development: Drive the adoption of AI both in our product (agentic UIs, copilots, assistants) and in your workflow (codegen, design, test automation).

• Testing & Quality: Lead the implementation of automated E2E testing (Playwright, etc.), storybook-driven development, and robust quality assurance processes.

• GraphQL API Integration: Work closely with our GraphQL APIs to deliver seamless, performant, and maintainable data flows throughout the frontend.

• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Collaborate with design, backend, and product teams (in Figma, Slack, Notion) to deliver features end-to-end, from idea to shipped product.

• Modern FE Stack: Use and evangelize modern FE tools like Next.js, React, Tailwind CSS, Figma, Storybook, and more.

• Backend Collaboration: Contribute to backend code when necessary (Node.js/NestJS/TypeScript/Postgres, GraphQL), unblocking features and ensuring tight integration across the stack.

• Mentorship & Leadership: Coach peers, review code, foster knowledge-sharing, and champion a remote-first, collaborative culture.

• Startup Mindset: Thrive in a distributed, async, and dynamic environment. Bring clarity to ambiguity and enjoy rapid iteration.

What We’re Looking For

• 7+ years of hands-on experience as a Frontend Engineer, ideally including startup or high-growth environments.

• Deep expertise with React and Next.js, and a passion for building maintainable, scalable applications.

• GraphQL Experience: Strong experience working with GraphQL (client and server-side), including schema design, efficient queries, and advanced tooling (Apollo, urql, Relay, etc).

• Agentic/AI Experience: Experience with new agentic UI frameworks (CopilotKit, AutoGen UI, LangChain UI, or similar) is a strong plus.

• Proven Ownership: Demonstrated experience owning complex frontend architectures and product surfaces end-to-end, including devops and production monitoring.

• Modern Tooling: Proficiency in Tailwind CSS, Storybook, Figma, bit.cloud, and contemporary DX tooling.

• Testing Automation: Strong track record with Playwright (or similar) for automated E2E and integration testing.

• Backend Collaboration: Familiarity with Node.js, TypeScript, API design, and comfortable jumping into backend code when needed.

• DevOps Skills: Experience with CI/CD, monitoring, and frontend operations in production.

• Remote Work Experience: Strong written communication skills and experience working in distributed, async teams.

• Product and Design Sensibility: Able to turn requirements and design prototypes into elegant, robust, and user-friendly experiences.

Nice to Have

• Experience building agentic or AI-powered interfaces.
• Open source contributions or involvement in the FE/AI community.
• Experience working on products serving nonprofits, SaaS, or mission-driven orgs.
• Experience working with Python backend services.

Why Vee?

• Own the full FE stack and help set the standard for the next generation of agentic, AI-powered UIs.
• Ship meaningful product that helps nonprofits do more good.
• Enjoy a hybrid working environment with a great in-office and remote culture.
• Work with a remote-first, high-trust team that values autonomy, speed, and impact.
• Competitive compensation, equity, and a chance to grow as we grow.
