• Implement a smooth and intuitive user interface that includes features like component dragging, dropping, resizing, and inline editing.
• Create a library of reusable and customizable components (e.g., text blocks, images, buttons, columns, forms).
• Ensure the builder generates clean, responsive, and standards-compliant HTML and CSS suitable for both modern web browsers and the quirks of various email clients.
• Develop the serialization logic to save and load user-created designs efficiently.
• Work closely with UI/UX designers and product managers to translate requirements into a polished and functional user experience.
• Write clean, maintainable, and well-documented code with extensive test coverage.
• Optimize the builder for performance, ensuring a fast and responsive experience for all users.

Required Skills & Qualifications

• 5+ years of professional experience in frontend or full-stack software development.
• A portfolio or collection of links to past projects that demonstrate your direct experience in building drag-and-drop interfaces, WYSIWYG editors, web builders, or similar complex UI systems. This is a mandatory requirement for consideration.
• Deep expertise in JavaScript/TypeScript and a major modern frontend framework (e.g., React, Vue.js, Svelte, or Angular).
• Strong proficiency in HTML5, CSS3, and advanced state management patterns (e.g., Redux, Zustand, Vuex, Pinia).
• Solid understanding of the complexities of HTML email development and ensuring cross-client compatibility.
• Experience in designing component-based architectures and APIs.
• A keen eye for detail and a passion for creating exceptional user experiences.
• Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently in a remote environment.

Bonus Points (Preferred Qualifications)

• Experience with backend development (e.g., Node.js, Python, Go) for creating APIs to save and retrieve builder data.
• Knowledge of performance optimization techniques for complex web applications.
• Familiarity with automated testing frameworks like Jest, Cypress, or Playwright.

What We Offer
