Junior Frontend Engineer

Permian Labs is a company that supports USD.AI, providing AI infrastructure operators with essential financing facilities. They are seeking a Junior Frontend Engineer to build user interfaces for their applications, working primarily with TypeScript and React, and collaborating closely with senior engineers.

What you'll do:

• Build and ship user-facing features across our web apps in TypeScript and React, from design hand-off through to production
• Translate Figma designs into clean, responsive, and accessible UI, sweating the details on polish, performance, and cross-browser behavior
• Integrate the frontend with our NestJS/TypeScript backend APIs — wire up data flows, handle loading and error states, and help shape sensible API contracts
• Contribute reusable, well-tested components to our shared component library and design system
• Help build wallet-connection and on-chain interaction flows for our web3 surfaces (e.g. with wagmi/viem) — no prior web3 experience required; we will get you up to speed
• Participate in code reviews and testing, and help keep our frontend codebase and tooling healthy
• Debug and resolve issues across browsers and devices, keeping an eye on quality and reliability

What they're looking for:

• 1–3 years of professional experience building web applications with React and TypeScript
• Solid grasp of modern frontend fundamentals: component architecture, state management, responsive layout, and core browser APIs
• Comfort consuming REST or similar APIs and collaborating closely with backend engineers
• A good eye for UI detail and a habit of shipping polished, accessible interfaces from designs (Figma or similar)
• Based in NYC and able to work fully onsite
• Eager to learn, take ownership, and grow quickly in a small, fast-moving team
• Fintech experience or interest
• Exposure to web3 frontend tooling — or genuine interest in learning it
• Familiarity with Node.js / NestJS, or willingness to occasionally work across the stack
• Experience with testing frameworks, CI, and modern build tooling
• Side projects, open-source contributions, or a portfolio you are proud of

Benefits:

• Long-term token incentive package.
• Unlimited PTO.
• Health & wellness reimbursements.
