Why this grade This listing scored 67/100, which is a C. It lost the most ground on pay transparency. See the breakdown
- Description depth 20 / 20 How much the posting actually says about the work, measured in characters of real text.
- Remote clarity 15 / 15 Whether "remote" means anywhere, or is quietly restricted to one country.
- Freshness 12 / 15 How recently it was posted. Older postings are likelier to be filled or abandoned.
- Pay transparency 12 / 25 A published salary range, worth more than any other single factor because it is what a candidate cannot find out without applying.
- Corroboration 5 / 10 Whether more than one source carries this listing.
- Role specificity 3 / 10 Whether the listing is tagged well enough to tell what the role actually is.
Every figure above is arithmetic over the posting itself — its salary field, its text, its age, its tags and how many sources carry it. How the grades work →

About This Role
Developer-first companies are allergic to marketing — which means our web work has to be so good it doesn't feel like marketing. That's the job. Most "design engineer" roles are really front-end roles with a nicer title: implement the mockup, close the ticket. This one isn't. We're rolling out a new brand identity, and we need someone to engineer it into existence — the components, the motion systems, the tooling that make a brand real instead of a PDF nobody opens. You're the kind of person who profiles an animation at 10pm because 60fps wasn't negotiable, who notices when an easing curve is wrong from across the room, and who thinks the gap between "looks like the design" and "feels alive" is where the actual work lives.
You'll thrive as a Design Engineer if you:
obsess with crafting code that is fast, reliable and practical for the problem
are known as the go-to person for tackling tough technical problems
work hard and can build and ship fast
can clearly explain complex technical concepts to others
are a fast learner, frequently picking up new languages and tools
The best way to impress us is with thoughtful Issues and/or PRs on our Github repos 😊
What You'll Do
Own the craft of livekit.com — push the boundaries of what a developer-facing marketing site can be in motion, interaction, and performance
Engineer our new brand identity into a living system: components, motion patterns, and tooling that let the whole team ship on-brand work fast
Build launch pages, product pages, and campaign surfaces that hold an insanely high bar without slowing anyone down
Treat performance as a feature — rich experiences that stay fast, measured and defended with real budgets
Partner daily with brand designers, marketers, and the design engineering team to turn ambitious ideas into shipped web
Who You Are
An exceptional front-end engineer with a portfolio of production web work that speaks for itself
Obsessive about detail — motion, interaction, and performance are your home turf, not checkboxes
Fluent in translating brand and design intent into reusable systems and components
Fast and self-directed — you ship polished work without waiting for perfect specs
A strong collaborator with designers — you elevate their ideas rather than flattening them into what's easy
Nice to Have
Experience at a developer-tools, API, or infrastructure company — you know why engineers distrust marketing and how to win them over
WebGL, shaders, or creative-coding chops for the moments that call for something nobody's seen before
Design system contributions — tokens, primitives, docs that other people actually used
Battle scars from making a rich site pass Core Web Vitals — and strong opinions about how
You have a folder of screen recordings of other people's website interactions, purely for study (we won't judge)
Our Commitment to You
An opportunity to build something truly impactful to the world
Contribute to open source alongside world-class engineers
Competitive salary and equity package
Health, dental, and vision benefits
Flexible vacation policy
