Company mission
Help developers make more money.
Role
Who you are
- You have a strong track record building substantial production UI and bridging design and frontend engineering in complex product environments
- You can translate design intent into polished production experiences with a high bar for layout, typography, interaction, motion, responsiveness, accessibility, and detail
- You write clear, maintainable frontend code and can reason well about state, component architecture, performance, testing, and edge cases
- You have strong design judgment and can make good decisions when specifications are incomplete, implementation reveals constraints, or the right solution is not obvious
- You think in systems, knowing when to reuse, extend, or create patterns and abstractions without introducing unnecessary complexity
- You can make sound trade-offs between customer value, design quality, technical feasibility, scope, and risk
- You collaborate closely with Design and Engineering, involve the right people at the right moments, and stay responsible for quality through implementation and follow-up
- You communicate clearly in a remote, asynchronous environment and take ownership beyond narrow role boundaries
- You use modern tools, including AI-assisted development, when they help you move faster, while still being able to understand, evaluate, debug, and evolve what you ship
- You are excited about our mission to help developers make more money
What the job involves
- As a Senior Design Engineer at RevenueCat, you’ll work at the intersection of Product Design and Frontend Engineering, turning design intent into polished, production-quality experiences. You’ll move fluidly between Figma and code, resolve gaps in specifications, make thoughtful technical and design trade-offs, and help shape how complex product experiences actually feel when they ship
- You’ll join a small design team with a high bar for craft and a strong builder mindset. We’re looking for someone who treats code as a design medium, is comfortable working inside real production systems, collaborates closely with designers and engineers, and takes responsibility for the final quality of what reaches customers
- In the first month, you'll
- Get to know our product, customers, and teams
- Familiarize yourself with our design system, component library, and front-end stack
- Talk to some customers to understand their needs
- Start contributing to the implementation and design of your first meaningful project
- Within the first 3 months, you'll
- Have taken full ownership of the design engineering work
- Have shipped the first project you worked on end-to-end, from design through implementation
- Work with your team to discover opportunities and build solutions that deliver value to our customers
- Within the first 6 months, you'll
- Be a trusted partner to both Design and Engineering, helping teams turn ambitious product ideas into polished, shippable experiences
- Raise the bar for interaction quality, frontend craft, accessibility, and implementation quality within your area
- Contribute to the evolution of our design system, shared components, and reusable patterns where they improve consistency and speed
- Within the first 12 months, you'll
- Have shipped meaningful product improvements end to end, from early exploration through production and iteration
- Help improve reusable patterns, tooling, and design-to-code workflows that make Design and Engineering more effective without adding unnecessary complexity
- Be a strong advocate for craft, customer value, and thoughtful technical judgment across RevenueCat
Our take
RevenueCat was founded by developers who understood the complexities of scaling a subscription app firsthand. The company’s software development kit (SDK) solution gives companies the tools they need to build a subscription business for Android and iOS.
Although similar subscription companies exist, RevenueCat’s main differentiator is that its application processing interface is easy to use for developers and accessibly priced - RevenueCat charges a small percentage of an app’s sales instead of a flat fee.
Top companies like VSCO, Notion, WidgetSmith, Buffer, and Fishbrain use RevenueCat to power their subscriptions at scale, and the company is now handling subscriptions for millions of mobile subscriptions across thousands of apps. It continues to expand operations and make new partnerships towards bettering its capabilities for the future.
