Our founders have experience coming from both sides of the problem: from overseeing the finance org at Rubrik, to building month-end close systems at Twitter and Netflix. We have raised the largest seed in history in the accounting space from Kleiner Perkins & Audacious Ventures and are backed by finance leaders at companies such as Rippling, OpenAI, and UI Path.\r\nRole Overview\r\nWe are looking for a frontend engineer who will help define the next generation of enterprise software for AI and accounting. You will bridge the gap between design and engineering, building the design system and UI foundations that power how controllers, accountants, and auditors interact with autonomous agents.\r\nThis is not a standard front-end development role. You will focus on design-to-code systems — creating the infrastructure, tokens, and component libraries that make our AI-driven workflows feel transparent, controllable, and trustworthy. Every element you build will help users understand, validate, and collaborate with AI in high-stakes financial environments.\r\nYou will work closely with product designers, front-end engineers, and product managers to turn complex financial and AI concepts into experiences that feel simple, consistent, and reliable.\r\nKey Responsibilities\r\nDesign-to-Code Systems: Build and maintain Maxima's design system, from tokens and components to documentation and accessibility standards.\r\nUI Consistency at Scale: Partner with engineers to ensure every surface — from journal automation to anomaly detection — adheres to shared interaction and visual patterns.\r\nExplainable AI Interfaces: Work with designers to prototype and implement UI patterns that help users inspect, override, and trust agent-driven actions.\r\nAccessibility and Reliability: Ensure components are responsive, accessible, and optimized for the precision and clarity enterprise accounting requires.\r\nDesign Tooling: Connect design tools like Figma to our engineering workflows, streamlining design handoff, prototyping, and documentation in Storybook.\r\nPerformance and Maintainability: Contribute to front-end quality by improving component performance, reusability, and developer experience.\r\nCollaboration: Participate in design critiques, code reviews, and cross-functional meetings to maintain alignment between visual design and product implementation.\r\nQualifications\r\n4 or more years of experience in UX engineering or design-system-focused front-end roles.\r\nProficiency in HTML, CSS (Sass/SCSS), JavaScript, and TypeScript, with strong experience in React.\r\nProven experience building and maintaining scalable design systems or component libraries for complex web applications.\r\nUnderstanding of accessibility (WCAG 2.2 / Section 508) and how to bake it into every component by default.\r\nFamiliarity with design tools such as Figma and how to translate design tokens into code.\r\nExperience with Storybook, monorepos, or component publishing workflows.\r\nStrong eye for detail, usability, and design fidelity, especially in data-rich enterprise interfaces.\r\nCuriosity about AI, automation, and how intelligent systems can enhance trust and efficiency in financial operations.\r\nWhy Join Us\r\nBuild the design foundations for the first AI-native enterprise accounting platform.\r\nBe a core part of a mission-driven startup looking to transform accounting processes.\r\nWork in a fast-paced environment where your decisions directly impact product direction and company growth.\r\nCollaborate with top-tier designers and engineers in an environment that values precision, craft, and innovation.\r\nCompetitive salary, equity, and benefits (401k, unlimited PTO).\r\nJoin us in revolutionizing accounting month-end close and making accounting operations more efficient for businesses everywhere.\r\nJ-18808-Ljbffr","company":"Maxima","rawCompany":"maxima","city":"San Mateo","state":"CA","isRemote":false,"isActive":false,"createdAt":"2026-08-07T00:55:33.331Z","occupations":[{"code":"15-1252.00","title":"Software Developers","slug":"software-developers"},{"code":"15-1255.00","title":"Web and Digital Interface Designers","slug":"web-and-digital-interface-designers"},{"code":"15-1254.00","title":"Web Developers","slug":"web-developers"}],"industries":[{"code":"541511","title":"Custom Computer Programming Services","slug":"custom-computer-programming-services"},{"code":"513210","title":"Software Publishers","slug":"software-publishers"},{"code":"541512","title":"Computer Systems Design Services","slug":"computer-systems-design-services"}],"jobPosting":{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"JobPosting","title":"Frontend Engineer","description":"Get AI-powered advice on this job and more exclusive features.\r\nAbout Us\r\nMaxima is the first agentic AI platform for enterprise accounting, purpose built to deliver SOX compliant, real time close.
