Job Description

Blacksmith is a cloud infrastructure provider that helps companies accelerate their CI (GitHub Actions) processes while reducing costs. The company's mission is to build a CI cloud, unbundling CI workloads from hyperscaler clouds like AWS, GCP, and Azure. Blacksmith orchestrates millions of VMs monthly for CI jobs across a fleet of bare metal hardware, serving over 900 fast-growing startups, including Supabase, UserTesting, and Ashby.

The Product Engineer role involves working closely with design to build polished, high-performance UIs, focusing on browser performance, rendering bottlenecks, and complex component architecture. The role offers the opportunity to contribute significantly to an early-stage startup, impacting its growth and direction.

The compensation range for this position is $200K - $300K. Blacksmith provides premium health, dental, and vision coverage, 16 weeks of paid parental leave, unlimited PTO, a birthday-off policy, a Michelin-star dinner on your birthday, and a 401(k) plan to help you save for retirement.

This is a great opportunity to join a dynamic, Y Combinator-backed company with a clear vision and a strong engineering team.
