Frontend Engineer

(Full-Time, Non-Exempt)7060 Hollywood Blvd, Los Angeles, CA (In-Office Role Only)Compensation: $30.00–$37.00 per hourAbout Better UBetter U provides non-clinical services (admin) to independent medical providers to improve access to mental health care through at-home ketamine therapy, holistic psychiatry, integration coaching, peptide treatments, and regenerative health programs! The company is building technology that supports patient intake, clinical workflows, member experience, and future AI-enabled care operations Position SummaryWe’re looking for a highly capable AI-first engineer who can build, orchestrate, and ship complex software across web and native mobile platforms at exceptional speed. This role is for someone who has fundamentally adapted their engineering workflow around modern AI coding agents and agentic development environments. You should be highly proficient working inside tools such as OpenAI Codex, Cursor, Claude Code, Warp, and similar AI-assisted or AI-native development environments, and know how to coordinate multiple agents, models, repositories, and workstreams simultaneously.You’ll work across Next.js / TypeScript, Swift / SwiftUI, and Kotlin / Jetpack Compose, often developing multiple clients against the same backend in parallel. You’ll own features from architecture and implementation through testing, integration, CI/CD, and production deployment.This is not a role for someone who simply prompts an AI assistant to generate isolated pieces of code. We’re looking for an engineer who knows how to orchestrate AI agents as an engineering system—breaking down problems, managing context, assigning parallel workstreams, reviewing generated code, enforcing architectural consistency, debugging failures, and bringing the resulting system into production. Webflow and UI/UX design is a huge plus! What You’ll DoAI-First Engineering & Agent OrchestrationUse AI coding agents as a core part of your daily engineering workflow.Coordinate multiple agents working across frontend, mobile, backend integration, testing, refactoring, documentation, and deployment tasks.Decompose large engineering objectives into clear, independently executable agent workstreams.Maintain architectural consistency when multiple AI agents are modifying the same product or related codebases.Design effective repository-level instructions, context, rules, prompts, tooling, and workflows for agentic development.Determine when work should be delegated to an agent, run in parallel, or handled directly by an engineer.Review, validate, debug, and improve AI-generated implementations rather than accepting generated code blindly.Use agents for codebase exploration, migrations, refactors, test creation, debugging, dependency analysis, and implementation planning.Build workflows that allow one engineer to effectively manage multiple simultaneous engineering threads.Web Frontend EngineeringBuild sophisticated production web applications using technologies such as:Next.jsReactTypeScriptModern React Server Components and client/server architectureGSAP and advanced browser animationResponsive and adaptive interface systemsComponent libraries and design systemsModern CSS architecturePerformance optimizationComplex state and data synchronizationYou should be capable of translating product and design requirements directly into production-quality frontend systems without needing a narrowly scoped implementation specification for every feature.API & Data Client ArchitectureWe expect substantially deeper API experience than simply calling endpoints with fetch() or Axios.You should be comfortable designing and maintaining typed, production-grade frontend API layers using technologies and patterns such as:TanStack Query / React QueryGraphQL clients such as Apollo Client or urqlOpenAPI-generated TypeScript clientsGraphQL code generationSchema-driven API clientsTyped request and response modelsRequest caching and invalidationOptimistic updatesPagination and infinite queriesRetry and backoff strategiesRequest deduplicationAuthentication and token refreshError normalizationClient-side persistenceReal-time subscriptionsWebSockets and server-sent eventsREST and GraphQL API architectureYou should understand how to build an API layer that becomes an intentional subsystem of the frontend architecture, rather than scattering HTTP requests throughout UI components.Native iOS EngineeringBuild and maintain production iOS applications using:SwiftSwiftUISwift Concurrency / async / awaitObservation and modern state-management patternsURLSessionAlamofire where appropriateCodable and strongly typed API modelsNative authentication and secure credential storagePush notificationsBackground executionDeep linkingApp lifecycle managementApp Store deployment and signingYou should understand how to architect reusable networking and data layers on iOS rather than coupling network calls directly to views.Experience with GraphQL clients such as Apollo iOS is valuable.Native Android EngineeringBuild and maintain production Android applications using:KotlinJetpack ComposeKotlin CoroutinesFlow / StateFlowViewModel architectureRetrofitOkHttpKtor ClientSerialization and typed API modelsGraphQL clients such as Apollo KotlinNative authenticationPush notificationsBackground workDeep linkingAndroid lifecycle managementGoogle Play deploymentYou should understand modern Android data-layer patterns including repository architecture, reactive data streams, caching, synchronization, and typed API access.Cross-Platform Product EngineeringA major part of this role is the ability to think across platforms.A feature may need to ship simultaneously across:Backend API → TypeScript client → Next.js → Swift client → iOS → Kotlin client → AndroidYou should be comfortable coordinating these implementations in parallel while maintaining consistent:API contractsBusiness logicData modelsAuthentication behaviorAnalyticsFeature flagsError statesLoading statesUser experienceRelease behaviorYou should know which concerns should be shared conceptually between platforms and which should remain idiomatic to each platform.Deployment & DevOpsYou should be capable of taking the software you build all the way into production.Experience should include several of the following:GitHub ActionsCI/CD pipelinesVercelAWSGoogle Cloud PlatformDockerCloud RunServerless infrastructureEnvironment and secret managementPreview deploymentsAutomated testingBuild pipelinesApp Store ConnectGoogle Play ConsoleProduction monitoringError trackingRelease managementYou should be comfortable diagnosing failures that span application code, build systems, infrastructure, APIs, authentication, and deployment environments.What We’re Looking ForYou are likely a strong fit if you:Are an exceptional frontend or product engineer first, with AI dramatically amplifying your capabilities.Have adopted AI-assisted development as your primary engineering workflow, not an occasional productivity tool.Regularly use tools such as Codex, Cursor, Claude Code, Warp, or equivalent agentic development systems.Can supervise multiple AI-generated workstreams without losing architectural coherence.Are highly proficient with TypeScript and modern React / Next.js.Can build meaningful production features in Swift / SwiftUI and Kotlin / Jetpack Compose.Understand modern frontend data-fetching architecture beyond Axios and raw HTTP requests.Have deep experience consuming REST and/or GraphQL APIs.Understand strongly typed API client generation and schema-driven development.Can independently debug unfamiliar systems.Can move comfortably between product requirements, UI implementation, API integration, architecture, infrastructure, and deployment.Have strong engineering judgment and know when generated code is incorrect, fragile, unnecessarily complex, or architecturally inappropriate.Prefer shipping complete systems over producing isolated code.Bonus points for experience with:OpenAI APIs and agent frameworksMCP / Model Context ProtocolAgent tool callingMulti-agent architecturesStructured outputsLLM evaluation and observabilityAgent memory and context managementAgentic CI/CD workflowsAutomated code reviewMonoreposGraphQL federationOpenAPI / Swagger code generationGraphQL Code GeneratorTanStack

Excellence Looks LikeAn excellent engineer in this role can receive a product objective such as:“Build this new workflow across web, iOS, and Android and integrate it with these APIs.”and independently turn it into:A technical architecture.A set of parallelizable engineering workstreams.Appropriate tasks and context for coding agents.A strongly typed API integration layer.Production-quality implementations across Next.js, Swift, and Kotlin.Automated tests and validation.CI/CD and deployment.A reviewed, coherent, production-ready feature.The goal is not merely to write code faster with AI.The goal is to use AI, agents, strong engineering fundamentals, and modern development tooling to dramatically increase the scope and quality of software that a single exceptional engineer can design, build, validate, and ship.Apply Here: We only consider applications submitted through our official application
