Kolab is a new kind of digital facilitation platform that combines video, canvas, spatial audio, and collaboration templates into a single experience. It's a bit like if Miro, Zoom, Butter, and Discord had a babybut with a strong emphasis on human-centered design and cohort-based learning. Our product is heavily front-end, visual, and experiential. We're building for facilitators, not just meeting hosts. Our small but experienced team has built a working v1. We've run real-world demos and pilots, and user feedback is extremely positive. We're now entering a 6-month sprint to sharpen onboarding, polish UI/UX, and convert interest into paying customers. Role We're seeking a contractor who can contribute 1020 hours/week to help us: Polish and extend our front-end feature set Improve and refactor existing UI flows (onboarding, templates, agenda builder) Collaborate on product decisions, not just execute tickets Bring strong design sensibilities to small details and larger flows Translate creative facilitation ideas into intuitive UI components You'll be working closely with our founding team (CTO + CEO + occasional support engineers). Our stack is largely built in Node.js, React, and LiveKit (for video). Familiarity with spatial design, collaboration tools, or edtech is a plus, but not required. About You You have strong experience in React and modern JS/TS workflows You feel comfortable working across a full stack JS environment with Postgres backing You have excellent design intuitionyou can look at a feature and see what feels off You care about visual polish, UX detail, and user flow coherence You love building things that make people say "whoa, this is different" You're comfortable working async with a lean team, jumping on occasional calls to align Logistics Start: July 2025 Time: 1020 hours/week Pay: $65$70/hour depending on experience Duration: 36 months, with possibility of extension Location: Remote, US timezone overlap preferred but not required Why Now We just completed a major round of user demos. We know what needs to improve. With a few months of polish, we believe Kolab can become a category-defining tool in the facilitation + learning space. If you want to help us get there, let's talk.
