Company mission
To enable teams of all sizes to drag and drop to create, test, and optimise lightning-fast digital experiences.
Role
Who you are
- 3–5+ years of experience in full-stack web development with a track record of shipping features to production in a team environment
- Strong proficiency in React and TypeScript/Node.js, with solid fundamentals in how browsers render, how components are composed, and how to write code others can build on
- Curiosity about AI and agentic systems. You are excited about building products where AI plays an active role in content workflows, and you want to help shape what that looks like in practice
- Solid API and backend foundations, including experience building or consuming REST APIs, and a genuine interest in the platform layer, not just UI
- An eye for product quality, you notice when something feels off for the end user and advocate for getting it right, not just shipping it
- Comfort with ambiguity, you do not need a perfectly scoped ticket to make progress; you ask good questions, make reasonable assumptions, and flag blockers early
- Familiarity with REST APIs and modern web integration patterns, including how frontend applications communicate with backend services and third-party platforms
- A collaborative, growth-oriented mindset, you seek feedback, learn from senior engineers around you, and take ownership of your work from first commit to production
What the job involves
- Builder.io's Publish engineering team builds the platform that empowers marketing and content teams to launch pages and campaigns using production-grade components, without engineering bottlenecks
- This is a full-stack platform engineering team
- You will work across the APIs, SDKs, and plugins that power Publish, as well as the visual layer that sits on top of it
- The platform must integrate reliably into diverse customer codebases and tech stacks, making backend fluency and API design just as important as frontend craft
- We are moving fast toward agentic Publish workflows, where AI can autonomously create, manage, and ship content experiences, and this team will be at the center of building that future
- If you are excited about building scalable platform infrastructure that sits at the intersection of developer tooling, content management, and AI-driven automation, this is the team for you
- Build and ship features across the Publish platform, spanning the visual editing experience, component rendering, and the integrations that make Publish work across diverse customer tech stacks, owning implementation, testing, and production verification
- Work at the intersection of developer infrastructure and non-technical UX, contributing to the hard problem of making a component-driven, code-backed CMS feel seamless for marketers while staying reliable and composable for engineering teams
- Partner with Product and Design to translate requirements into well-scoped solutions, surfacing edge cases early and making sensible trade-offs between speed and quality
- Contribute to customer-facing integrations across frameworks, hosting environments, and design systems, ensuring Publish works reliably in the real-world environments our enterprise customers bring
- Participate in the customer feedback loop, reviewing customer session recordings to understand friction, then connecting those insights directly to the features you are building
- Write clean, performant, maintainable code, with particular attention to browser rendering, real-time preview, and component serialization challenges unique to a visual CMS
- Collaborate actively across a global team, writing clear context, reviewing peers' code thoughtfully, and continuously raising the quality bar
Our take
All businesses, especially within commerce, rely on the constant evolution of marketing, content and visuals. Builder.io is a no-code platform for digital storefronts. The company is on a mission to make customers' lives easier by doing all of the coding work for them and providing an intuitive platform to design and publish content.
The key message from Builder.io is that anyone can be involved in the creation process, and those not equipped with all the skills shouldn’t have to miss out because of the complexities that go on behind the scenes. The company is home to a team of “Builders” who support the ongoing development of the Builder.io Platform, one that has drag and drop functionality and is easily integrated with customer software like Shopify.
Having received $20 million in funding in 2024, bringing their total to over $40 million, the company has created a really well-established platform and has managed to acquire a strong client base. It’ll be interesting to see how the company scales with new features and ventures, such as its AI agent for product, design and code - Fusion 1.0 - released in late 2025.
