- If you have experience building exceptional web experiences, a keen eye for detail, and enjoy working at the intersection of design and engineering, we’d love to hear from you!
- Develop, maintain, and enhance high-quality, accessible, performant, and scalable UI components for the Manychat design system, ensuring compliance with WCAG and best practices
- Write clean, efficient, well-documented code, and participate in code reviews and technical discussions
- Work closely with designers to translate UI designs and specifications into reusable code, ensuring consistency across digital products
- Partner with tech leads and feature developers to understand requirements, provide guidance, and deliver solutions that meet business needs
- Troubleshoot and resolve internal issues related to the design system, ensuring timely solutions and maintaining system integrity
- Champion the design system among the developers by promoting its benefits, educating on best practices, and advocating for its consistent application
Our take
Over 80% of businesses currently use chatbots to provide a variety of automated services to customers. However, chatbots are generally uniform and provide standardized responses, unless the business staffs a chatbot programmer.
ManyChat provides a platform for the creation of customized chatbots without needing any experience in coding. The startup focuses on providing small businesses opportunities to equip the messaging services of their Facebook and Instagram business pages with automotive customer service tools.
The company has grown a huge customer base of over a million businesses, powering more than a billion conversations each year. Though there is tough competition in this field, including new AI chatbots arriving on the market, ManyChat's focus on ease of use and code-free customization will likely ensure its ongoing popularity.
