Platform as a Service that runs in user's own cloud, allowing deployment to AWS/GCP accounts with automated DevOps and CI/CD.

Porter is building a Platform as a Service that runs in the user's own cloud, similar to Heroku but on Kubernetes. We've successfully converted some of Heroku's largest enterprise users and numerous high-growth startups in just over a year.

As our Frontend Engineer, you'll have maximum ownership over the frontend architecture and user experience. Our current engineering team is primarily focused on backend and infrastructure, with the founder handling most frontend work. We're looking for someone experienced who can elevate our platform's polish and developer experience to the next level.

Key Technical Challenges:
- Creating robust UI/UX for onboarding that handles various cloud permissions and infrastructure-related errors
- Building intuitive abstractions for CI and Kubernetes that serve diverse use cases
- Developing and maintaining an auto-generated frontend system using form.yaml templates

Tech Stack:
- Frontend: React with styled-components, TypeScript
- Backend: Go, Kubernetes + Helm APIs
- Infrastructure: AWS, GCP, Postgres, Redis

The company is experiencing rapid growth, having achieved 8x ARR growth since early 2022 and reaching profitability in Q3 2022. This role offers an opportunity to join a founding team in NYC and make a significant impact on a fast-growing platform used by enterprise customers.

The ideal candidate will:
- Have strong programming skills with frontend technologies
- Possess an eye for design and user experience
- Be capable of owning and elevating the frontend architecture
- Drive improvements in code quality and engineering culture
- Work effectively in a fast-paced startup environment

This is an in-person role based in New York City, offering competitive compensation between $150K-$200K.
