Senior Front-End Engineer

Who we are:

At Latitude, we’re building a new category: AI-native games. As the creators of AI Dungeon, we’re pioneering interactive experiences where players can go anywhere, be anyone, and do anything—powered by cutting-edge language models and deep player agency.

We’re entering a new chapter—and to get where we’re going, we need an elite team. Not just smart, but relentless. People who push themselves and their craft. People who could thrive anywhere, but choose to work here because they want to do something singular: help invent the future of gaming.

If you’re the kind of person others rely on, who learns fast, thinks deeply, and builds with care—we’d love to talk.

What You’ll Do

  • Own and deliver high-quality UI across platforms (web + mobile) in collaboration with design and product, from early prototypes to polished production.

  • Drive front-end performance—you’ll instrument, analyze, and optimize for speed, responsiveness, and bundle size across key user flows.

  • Hold a high bar for visual quality, accessibility, platform compatibility, and polish that delights players.

  • Prototype rapidly to validate ideas, accelerating learning and iteration cycles.

  • Raise the bar by writing clean, reusable, maintainable code and influencing team engineering practices through reviews and pairing.

  • Evaluate and apply new tools and frameworks, shaping the evolution of our front-end stack with pragmatism and care.

  • Contribute technical insight to roadmap planning, breaking down features, surfacing tradeoffs, and helping shape solutions that are both usable and feasible.

You Might Be a Fit If You…

  • Think of yourself as a full-stack engineer who leans front-end, and you enjoy working closely with design and product.

  • Have deep expertise in React/React Native, TypeScript, and component systems.

  • Have experience delivering cross-platform UIs using frameworks like React Native (we use Expo and Tamagui).

  • Are motivated by user impact and enjoy sweating the details—whether it’s animation timing, performance metrics, or mobile UX quirks.

  • Enjoy fast-paced, collaborative environments, and you’re excited to build with and for other senior engineers.

  • Have strong design instincts, and you love bringing designs to life.

  • Bonus: You’ve used GraphQL, worked with mobile or native performance optimizations, or helped evolve a shared component library.

Benefits:

  • Competitive salary with equity included

  • Medical, dental, and vision: 100% coverage for you and your dependents

  • MacBook Pro + tools you need to do great work

  • Flexible PTO (we recommend 2 days/month and 1 week/quarter off)

  • $100/mo learning fund for courses, books, conferences, or coaching

  • Access to the latest AI tools to accelerate your work

How we hire:

We don’t hire lightly. We’re looking for people who’ve proven they’re world-class at what they do—or who are clearly on their way there. People who combine technical strength with humility, creativity with follow-through, and urgency with long-term thinking.

You’ll work with a small, senior team that holds each other to a high bar—and supports each other in reaching it. We care more about trajectory and drive than perfect pedigrees. If you’ve built something exceptional, if you’ve done hard things well, or if you’ve outperformed expectations in surprising ways—tell us.

Latitude is remote-first, though we prioritize deep ties to the Bay Area. Most of all, we prioritize people who want to build something great, together.

If that’s you, apply now. Or reach out even if you’re unsure—we’d rather start a conversation than miss someone who could shape our future.

Compensation Range: $150K – $200K
