Software Engineer, Frontend

About the role

ABOUT OUTTAKE

Outtake exists to empower and facilitate trust for a digital-first world. Today, impersonation, fraud, AI-driven scams, and identity abuse spread faster than any security team can respond to. So we built something different: an agentic AI platform that proactively detects, monitors, and takes down impersonators, automating protection in hours, not weeks.

Built by ex-Palantir, ex-CTO/founders, and ex-Notion engineers, Outtake is designed for clarity, autonomy, and velocity. Our goal is ambitious: become the trust layer of the modern internet. And we intend to do it with a lean, dense, exceptionally talented team.

Outtake is backed by top-tier investors and operators who believe in our mission and our model. With strong financial footing and a long runway, we prioritize creating an environment where people can do the best work of their careers.

THE ROLE

We’re looking for a Frontend Engineer to define how customers experience Outtake. At a high level, this person will build the FE Software Factory that enables the rest of the team (humans and agents) to ship beautiful, reliable, and consistent user experiences seamlessly. Our product turns a noisy, messy, fast-moving threat landscape into clarity: surfaced risks, evidence, workflows, decisions, and automated action. The frontend is where that complexity becomes legible. It is where customers understand what is happening, trust the system’s recommendations, and take action with confidence.

This role is for someone who cares deeply about craft, speed, and product judgment. You should be excited to work close to the customer, translate ambiguous workflows into simple interfaces, and build software that feels fast, intelligent, and obvious. We are early, so this is not a narrow UI implementation role. You will shape product direction, design interaction patterns, make architectural decisions, and set the quality bar for the frontend as the company scales.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

- Build the agentic coding harness that allows non-frontend devs to ship polished, reliable, and consistent UI

- Refine and maintain our design system and design language

- Own the core componentry and abstractions that enforce consistency across our workflows, while accelerating other devs and coding agents building new workflows

- Own our UI testing framework and ensure we're shipping reliably

- Maintain a high quality bar for FE code by providing thoughtful reviews and coaching backend-leaning devs

- Build the agentic UI/UX (chat interfaces, generative UI, or similar) that define how our customers experience the effectiveness of our security agents

- Flex as a Product Engineer and build end-to-end products alongside as necessary or desired

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

- Proficiency with React and Typescript; familiarity with NextJS preferred

- Excellent product taste and design sensibilities, ideally with experience building design systems
