À propos
yeet is built by a tight-knit group of systems, observability, and kernel nerds who refuse to accept “mystery outages” as normal. We’re a small, high-impact team with domain expertise in Linux, eBPF, performance instrumentation, and developer tooling. We move fast, ship often, and take deep ownership. If you enjoy operating close to the metal, building tools that real engineers lean on during 3 AM incident sprints, and solving hard problems with minimal overhead, you’ll feel right at home here.
About the role
We’re looking for a
Frontend Engineer
to push the limits of what’s possible in the browser. yeet’s UI is a
canvas-based app
that ingests and visualizes huge streams of data. That means thinking beyond the usual component frameworks: Architecting solutions with
data pipelines, rendering loops, and memory constraints
in mind. You’ll be closer to the browser’s low-level engine than most frontend roles, making decisions that directly impact how engineers experience yeet in the mid-incident.
About you
You’ve built
performance-critical frontends
where smooth rendering and responsiveness weren’t optional.
You know when
React helps
and when to drop down to Canvas, WebGL, or raw DOM-manipulations for speed.
You have a strong grasp of
data structures and algorithms.
You write
expressive TypeScript
and use the type system to catch bugs before they ship.
You’re fluent in
low-level web APIs
(e.g. OPFS, OffscreenCanvas, Web Workers) and nerd out over the MDN docs.
You’re motivated by
measurable performance : frame budgets, memory profiles, flame-graphs, not just “it feels fast.”
Nice To Haves
Experience with
WebAssembly (WASM)
for accelerating data-heavy or compute-bound tasks in the browser.
Familiarity with
bundling and build tooling
(Webpack, Vite, Rollup) to optimize large-scale apps.
Background in
usability / UX for data-dense applications
— making complex interactions intuitive without sacrificing power.
Deep knowledge of
React internals
including how the scheduler works and when to bypass it.
