About the Company
Our client builds vertical AI for commercial glazing contractors — the teams that construct the glass facades of the world's most iconic buildings. Winning these high-stakes bids leaves estimators drowning in RFPs, addenda, and vendor quotes, so the client pairs every customer with a Virtual Bid Assistant: a skilled human estimator powered by its proprietary platform who pulls scope from RFPs, manages RFIs, and generates proposals at a speed no solo estimator could match. It's around $2M ARR with a plan to 10x in the next 12 months — seed-stage, AI-native, VC-backed, and moving fast.
Founded 2023 · 11–50 people (Seed) · Industry: Property Tech
The Role
Own the interface where clients work with their Virtual Bid Assistants, from onboarding through daily workflow. Today the product is server-rendered HTMX + Flask (fast, lean, tightly coupled to product logic rather than a heavy SPA). The team is splitting internal and external portals — the current app becomes the internal tool (likely staying on HTMX), while the external experience is being rebuilt in React. This role spearheads that external migration and the shift toward a human-plus-AI co-working product.
Tech stack: HTMX, Flask (Python), modern CSS/JS; external product migrating to React.
Requirements
- 5+ years of product-facing frontend engineering
- Strong HTML / CSS / JS fundamentals
- React, with the ability to lead an HTMX-to-React migration
- An AI-native builder
- Hybrid in Philadelphia, New York, or DC
- A portfolio of product-facing work
Nice to Haves
- Coded pre-AI, so fundamentals run deep, and now genuinely AI-native in how you build
- Early-stage team experience: collaborative and comfortable owning a piece end to end
- Understands the backend (Python) well enough to be effective, and translates design intent into polished frontend
- Simplifies complex B2B workflows for users and manages stakeholders (designer, backend, founder)
- A strong portfolio or side project, with real opinions on human-AI co-working interfaces
Why Join
- Spearhead the React migration: own the external product's move from server-rendered HTMX/Flask to React, end to end
- Build human-AI co-working interfaces: a shift in kind toward a workspace where users finish the task, not just view data — genuinely novel interaction design
- Early-hire equity on the generous side, with ~$2M ARR and a 10x plan
- Hybrid with a real HQ in Philadelphia; NYC or DC also work
- Visa sponsorship: H-1B transfer / F-1 OPT supported
