Front-end Engineer (React)

Fetch is how modern pet parents give their pets the best care. One pink app for insurance, health, and care - easy, fair, and kinda fun. We've raised our Series A from Lightspeed and Airtree, customers love us (rated by Choice Magazine!), and we're growing fast.

We're looking for a Front-end Engineer who's obsessed with craft - someone who cares about how things look, feel, and behave, and wants to build beautiful product experiences that pet parents (and vets) love.

Compensation

Series A salary + meaningful equity upside

Stack

TypeScript, React, React Native, Next.js, GCP

Tooling

Figma + Cursor + Claude, and unlimited AI tools - no token limits

Your role

You'll set (and raise) the quality bar for the UI. You'll work closely with design and product to ship experiences that feel polished, fast, and intuitive.

Build delightful UI in React with strong interaction design and visual polish

Help evolve our design system (components, tokens, accessibility patterns)

Make the app feel fast: performance, rendering, loading states, perceived speed

Use AI tools daily to move faster without compromising quality

Collaborate tightly with product, design, ops, and vets to ship outcomes, not tickets

Write reliable, maintainable code: testing, review, and thoughtful architecture

What you'll build

High-craft product surfaces in the customer app and internal tools (workflows, claims, vet comms)

A consistent component library and design system that scales

Frontend foundations: routing patterns, state management, observability, feature flags

UX improvements that reduce confusion and increase trust (copy, empty states, progress states)

UI for AI-powered features (structured outputs, explainability, clear "what happened" states)

About you

You're early-to-mid career, but you punch above your weight. You care about quality, you ship, and you notice the little things.

3-5 years building and shipping frontend product (or equivalent through projects)

Great taste: layout, spacing, motion, and the details that make UI feel "done", uncompromising on exceptional design

Product thinking: you care about the user goal, not just the implementation

Comfortable working with designers in Figma and giving constructive feedback

You enjoy iterating in small steps and polishing the last 10%

Bonus: experience with design systems, mobile, or performance tuning

What it's like here

We're ambitious, collaborative, and genuinely enjoy building together. The Fetch team is smart, thoughtful, and kind - low ego, open, caring, and always supportive.

You'll be involved early in strategy. You're encouraged to give your opinion and debate with founders and the rest of the team

Weird is welcome. We value unexpected perspectives and people who think differently, so just be you

Unlimited AI tooling - no token limits or approvals needed. Just try things

Work on a product genuinely loved by tens and tens of thousands of pets, pet parents and vets

We're growing FAST. It's an exciting time to join and you'll directly impact the future of our products

We say "steward" not "owner" - the accountability is real, the language signals how we hold it

And the perks

Competitive Series A salary + meaningful equity

Hybrid working (3 days Sydney office, flexible WFH)

Latest MacBook Pro and a top setup

Two team retreats each year

Office dogs for cuddles and interruptions

Bean to cup coffee machine, unlimited fruit and snacks. Toblerone on-tap
