About the job
We're looking for an exceptional front-end developer excited to build a modern payments dashboard and checkout experiences. This role primarily involves working with a dashboard powered by golang, templ, and HTMX. You'll also build checkout experiences for our merchants via Javascript libraries, and embedable components. You'll work closely with the technical founder to design systems that process sensitive financial data with integrity, resilience, and performance in mind.

This is a critical role: you will be a pivotal member of the development team, integral to building a solid foundation for years to come. This is an opportunity to see architecture decisions play out over time, apply your prior learnings to make sure we get it right, and make a difference.

What you'll do
Implement responsive design and ship UI that works across devices and viewports.
Build interactive analytics reports and dashboards to surface product and usage insights.
Optimize the user experience through performance, accessibility, and clear information architecture.
Design and build embeddable checkout components for merchants integrating with Vixel.
Apply secure coding practices to guard against common vulnerabilities (SQL injection, XSS, CSRF, SSRF, etc.)
What we're looking for
Expertise in HTML5, CSS3, and responsive design
Strong experience with Typescript
Ideally strong experience with HTMX, otherwise experience with React + Server Side Rendering
Experience with go (golang) and templ is a strong plus
Strong debugging skills
Unit testing experience
Strong communication skills, able to work remote with autonomy and responsibility
At least 2 years of professional development experience or a strong GitHub repository
Excellent English communication skills
Start-up / early stage company experience
Background checks are required, as we are PCI-DSS Level 1 compliant
Nice to have
Experience writing components with minimal dependencies for external consumption
Experience with Figma, Photoshop, and/or Illustrator
Storybook familiarity, or related
Appreciation for good UX
FinTech experience
Ethos
Simplicity does not just happen, it takes more time, effort, and experience.
APIs should be designed with the developer in mind. Properly handling errors and validation is just as important as the success response. Consistency is key.
Strong unit and integration tests make for safer production releases.
Healthy, constructive feedback makes us all better. Development is not done in a vacuum.
We care about output, not when you sit in front of a screen
About Vixel
Vixel is a stealth-stage payments startup, combining modern technologies and machine learning to deliver end-to-end payment processing abilities to merchants globally. The Vixel payment platform bridges the gap between key payment participants and a merchant's end-customer to reduce exposure to fraud, lower costs and re-imagine customer experiences to the delight of both businesses and their customers worldwide.

While the constraints that remain important in the payments industry have remained largely unchanged over time, the opportunity to innovate and fundamentally re-think how the latest technologies apply to this dynamic industry are wide open. The culture at Vixel balances a pragmatic passion for innovation with an unyielding drive to build for scale and meaningful business impact. Vixel exists to bring innovation to the payments industry, where the industry has not kept pace.

Founded by two payments industry veterans; Dan Burkhart and Isaac Hall, who previously co-founded Recurly, the industry leading subscription management platform.
