About the role
BUILD FAST, ACCESSIBLE, RESILIENT INTERFACES THAT MAKE WORKING IN REVIT A PLEASURE. FOR ENGINEERS WHO CARE ABOUT THE WEB ITSELF, NOT JUST THE FRAMEWORK OF THE MONTH.
HEY THERE — WE’RE KINSHIP 👋
We're building the Revit tools you wish existed. Our platform helps architects and engineers manage content, track usage, and make smarter decisions with less hassle.
We're looking for a frontend engineer who cares about the web itself. Someone who reaches for HTML and CSS first, treats JavaScript as something you add on purpose rather than by default, and judges their work by what users get: interfaces that are fast, accessible, resilient, and a pleasure to use.
We build with React today, and you'll work in it daily. We're not asking anyone to come in and rewrite everything from scratch. But we care far more about how well you understand the platform underneath than about which tools you're fluent in. Frameworks come and go; the web is versionless, and a real command of it compounds over an entire career.
IN THIS ROLE, YOU WILL:
- Own user-facing features (advanced search, model usage dashboards, sync-rule management, interactive content previews) and sweat the details that make them feel effortless
- Reach for the right tool for each problem: native HTML elements and modern CSS where they do the job well, React where it earns its place
- Treat performance and accessibility as first-class outcomes, not afterthoughts: quick on a mid-range device and a flaky connection, usable with a keyboard and a screen reader
- Build and maintain shared component libraries and a frontend architecture
- Tackle real frontend challenges: complex state, large datasets, keeping the UI fast and responsive across the app
- Work closely with designers, engineers and Revit experts
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
You don’t need to tick every box, but here’s what would help you succeed:
MUST-HAVES
- A deep, hands-on command of HTML and CSS: semantics, layout, and modern CSS (cascade layers, container queries, :has(), logical properties, oklch(), whatever the job needs), plus an eye for spacing, states, and the details that make an interface just work
- Fluency in JavaScript/TypeScript and React, comfortable in a modern component-based codebase and able to tell when a problem needs JavaScript at all
- A habit of progressive enhancement: build something that works, then layer on the nice-to-haves, so a slow network or an old device degrades gracefully instead of breaking
- Hands-on in the browser's DevTools as a real debugging instrument, not just a place to dump console.logs. You can use the Performance panel to find what's blocking the main thread, read a network waterfall, throttle CPU and network to reproduce a user's bad day, and inspect the DOM and computed styles to track down a layout bug
- Several years (think 5+) building real things for the web, and experience reasoning about complex UI systems and state across a real app
