Get AI-powered advice on this job and more exclusive features. About Us: Maxima is the first agentic AI platform for enterprise accounting, purpose built to deliver SOX compliant, real time close. Our founders have experience coming from both sides of the problem: from overseeing the finance org at Rubrik, to building month-end close systems at Twitter and Netflix. We have raised the largest seed in history in the accounting space from Kleiner Perkins & Audacious Ventures and are backed by finance leaders at companies such as Rippling, OpenAI, and UI Path. Role Overview We are looking for a frontend engineer who will help define the next generation of enterprise software for AI and accounting. You will bridge the gap between design and engineering, building the design system and UI foundations that power how controllers, accountants, and auditors interact with autonomous agents. This is not a standard front-end development role. You will focus on design-to-code systems — creating the infrastructure, tokens, and component libraries that make our AI-driven workflows feel transparent, controllable, and trustworthy. Every element you build will help users understand, validate, and collaborate with AI in high-stakes financial environments. You will work closely with product designers, front-end engineers, and product managers to turn complex financial and AI concepts into experiences that feel simple, consistent, and reliable. Key Responsibilities
Design-to-Code Systems: Build and maintain Maxima’s design system, from tokens and components to documentation and accessibility standards. UI Consistency at Scale: Partner with engineers to ensure every surface — from journal automation to anomaly detection — adheres to shared interaction and visual patterns. Explainable AI Interfaces: Work with designers to prototype and implement UI patterns that help users inspect, override, and trust agent-driven actions. Accessibility and Reliability: Ensure components are responsive, accessible, and optimized for the precision and clarity enterprise accounting requires. Design Tooling: Connect design tools like Figma to our engineering workflows, streamlining design handoff, prototyping, and documentation in Storybook. Performance and Maintainability: Contribute to front-end quality by improving component performance, reusability, and developer experience. Collaboration: Participate in design critiques, code reviews, and cross-functional meetings to maintain alignment between visual design and product implementation.
Qualifications
4 or more years of experience in UX engineering or design-system-focused front-end roles. Proficiency in HTML, CSS (Sass/SCSS), JavaScript, and TypeScript, with strong experience in React. Proven experience building and maintaining scalable design systems or component libraries for complex web applications. Understanding of accessibility (WCAG 2.2 / Section 508) and how to bake it into every component by default. Familiarity with design tools such as Figma and how to translate design tokens into code. Experience with Storybook, monorepos, or component publishing workflows. Strong eye for detail, usability, and design fidelity, especially in data-rich enterprise interfaces. Curiosity about AI, automation, and how intelligent systems can enhance trust and efficiency in financial operations.
Why Join Us
Build the design foundations for the first AI-native enterprise accounting platform. Be a core part of a mission-driven startup looking to transform accounting processes. Work in a fast-paced environment where your decisions directly impact product direction and company growth. Collaborate with top-tier designers and engineers in an environment that values precision, craft, and innovation. Competitive salary, equity, and benefits (401k, unlimited PTO).
Join us in revolutionizing accounting month-end close and making accounting operations more efficient for businesses everywhere. #J-18808-Ljbffr
