Software Engineer, Product Frontend (2 8 YOE)

Job description

Airtable is the no-code app platform that empowers people closest to the work to accelerate their most critical business processes.

More than 500,000 organizations, including 80% of the Fortune 100, rely on Airtable to transform how work gets done.

As a Full-Stack, Front-End leaning engineer at Airtable, you will have the opportunity to work with customers to deeply understand their needs and workflows.

You will collaborate with cross-functional partners across product management, design, research and data science to create innovative new features that enable our customers to do their best work.

You will be responsible for owning and executing the end-to-end implementation of these new features that will contribute to making our toolkit even more powerful and successful.



We currently have openings on:

Teams & New Product Lines:


+ The Core Experience Team (Full-Stack/FE, SF/NYC) owns the UI layer of the Airtable app building platform.

This layer (Interface Designer) (https://www.airtable.com/platform/interface-designer) , sits atop the Data and Automations layer, and enables customers to create customized interfaces, supporting an expansive array of use cases.

The team also owns complex backend systems, such as Airtable’s advanced permissions framework and the systems powering commenting and notifications.

Additionally, the team collaborates closely with cross-functional partners and engages directly with customers to gather requirements and discuss use cases firsthand.

+ The Omni Team (Full-Stack/FE, NYC) brings the power of AI directly to Airtable end users, making it easier than ever to search, navigate, and operate their applications.

While other teams focus on embedding AI throughout the platform and building advanced tools for creators, this team’s mission is simple: ensure AI is immediately helpful with little to no setup.

From the moment a customer opens a base, installs a solution, or uses a template, AI is there - ready to assist.

The team also builds foundational elements of Airtable’s AI platform, enabling other engineering teams to deliver high-quality AI-powered experiences across the product.

+ The Builder Experience Team (Full-Stack/FE, SF/NYC) empowers users to turn ideas into valuable Airtable apps through AI.

We’re focused on evolving Omni into a thought partner that understands user workflows, asks smart questions, and builds exactly what’s needed for each user's specific requirements.

By leveraging AI to power app creation, we reduce friction for new builders, increase activation, and drive adoption across teams.

Every initiative we ship lowers the barrier to building in Airtable and expands the impact of AI-built apps.


Please note: while we employ a hybrid working model at Airtable (flexible in working from the office or elsewhere), we are looking to hire candidates at this level that are based in San Francisco/New York who are open to coming into the office at least ~2-3 times/week for team collaboration.

+ Work alongside and learn from a talented group of engineers with a diverse range of experiences and backgrounds.



Who you are
