The Role

We’re looking for a Design Engineer who can take ideas from rough sketches to production-ready pages.

+ Experienced in going from concept to polished product independently

+ Strong with Next.js, Tailwind, and Framer Motion

+ Obsessed with great UX

+ Comfortable working quickly in a fast-moving, high-trust team

Bonus Points

+ Shipped live projects with real users

+ Experience across brand, web, and interactive design

Why This Role

+ Real impact – Your work touches every user-facing surface

+ High velocity – We ship fast, and your work goes live fast

+ Small team, big ambition – Work closely with founders and make key decisions

About Us

We’re building the easiest way to extract data from the web. Developers use us to reliably convert URLs into LLM-ready markdown or structured data with a single API call. We’ve already gained strong traction, including thousands of GitHub stars and paying customers from day one.

Previously, our team built one of the first commercially available “chat with your data” platforms, working with companies like MongoDB, Coinbase, and Snapchat. That journey highlighted the challenge of building reliable web data infrastructure—something we’re now tackling head-on.
