Zipline is a well-funded, rapidly growing SaaS company transforming how frontline teams work. We empower the world’s leading brands across retail, healthcare, logistics, and beyond to connect, align, and inspire their employees- from headquarters to the front lines. Our customers consistently give us best-in-class NPS and CSAT scores, and they rave about how Zipline makes their teams’ lives easier and their businesses more effective. We’re also a fully remote company, with passionate employees across the U.S., Canada, and around the globe.
Zipline is looking for a Front-End Engineer who lives at the intersection of design and code. You won't just implement specs, you'll shape the UI itself, building directly in code with the same care a designer brings to a canvas. You'll work closely with our product, engineering, and design teams to deliver polished, performant interfaces across our platform. Your primary focus will be front-end development using Ruby on Rails, Hotwire (Turbo & Stimulus), and modern JavaScript, with a strong secondary focus on user experience and design craft.
Collaborate with engineers, designers, and product managers to build functional, beautiful user interfaces. Often working design-forward in code rather than waiting for pixel-perfect handoffs especially in the world of AI
Develop, enhance, and maintain responsive web applications using Ruby on Rails, Turbo, Stimulus, and JavaScript.
Contribute to and evolve Zipline's design system with View Components, treating it as living code.
Build and iterate on prototypes directly in code, using the design system as your foundation.
Use AI-assisted development tools (e.g. Claude Code, Copilot) as a natural part of your workflow to move faster without sacrificing quality.
Write clean, maintainable, and efficient code that scales to keep large teams productive.
Work with other developers to improve usability, accessibility, and performance.
Diagnose and resolve front-end issues to provide a smooth user experience.
Optimize applications for maximum speed and design mobile-first features, including Turbo Native mobile experiences.
Write clear functional requirement documents and guides that other engineers can pick up and run with.
Stay current on front-end tooling, patterns, and AI-augmented development practices.
3+ years experience in a front-end developer role.
Professional experience with Ruby on Rails, JavaScript, CSS, and HTML at scale.
Hands-on experience with Turbo, Stimulus, or the broader Hotwire ecosystem.
You can look at a UI, see what's off, and fix it in code without needing a designer to redline it for you.
Experience building within and contributing to a design system with View Components and Lookbook
Comfort using AI coding tools as part of your daily development workflow.
A problem-solving mindset that finds elegant solutions when working within the constraints of a design system.
Refined time management and proactive communication skills that let you do your best work in an asynchronous, fully remote environment.
Experience with Turbo Native (iOS/Android).
Experience with React or Vue.js component architectures.
A passion for teaching and mentoring other engineers on front-end craft.
Familiarity with prompt engineering or building AI-augmented features into product UIs.
Retail industry experience.
You take pride in your craft. Clean code, polished UI, and attention to detail aren't afterthoughts, they're the baseline.
You think of design as something you do in code, not something someone else hands you.
You're curious about AI tooling and excited about what it means for how we build software, not threatened by it.
Outstanding listening and writing skills, with a knack for translating complex concepts into simple, persuasive language.
Team player who builds relationships across engineering, product, and design.
Self-motivated, dependable, and dedicated.
Proficient with remote collaboration tools like Slack, JIRA, and Confluence.
At Zipline, we're committed to paying our team fairly, transparently, and in a way that supports growth. This role is targeting an annual salary within Canada of $128,205 CAD to $156,755CAD.
The broad salary ranges reflect the growth someone will experience in the role—from developing skills to reaching expertise within their career level. We've found that hiring team members with the expectation of being accomplished in the role sets them up for success, which for this position on the Canadian band is $128,205 CAD. Salaries below this point typically reflect someone with potential but still building the necessary skills, while salaries above are for individuals already excelling in the role, with a deep understanding of Zipline's impact on customers, product, and company.
At Zipline, you'll continue to have career development conversations with your manager to ensure your compensation grows as you advance.
Our salary ranges are determined by market, factoring in our revenue and employee size and paying competitively. In higher cost of living markets, we apply 5-10% multipliers on our ranges, depending on the location, to maintain competitive compensation and reflective of the increased expenses our team members face in those areas. While we primarily hire in Canada and the USA, we are a global employer, and all hiring regions will use the same methodology to determine fair and transparent pay.
Transparency is key to building trust in our compensation process. To better understand how this range is determined, we encourage you to ask as many questions as you'd like about compensation during the interview process to ensure clarity and confidence.
Remote-first culture: Join a high performing, fully remote team and work where you're comfortable
Stock Options: Get meaningful ownership in a fast-growing, venture-backed company shaping the future of retail.
Time off: We believe rest fuels great work. Our flexible time-off policy gives you the freedom to take the breaks you need, when you need them—whether it's a long weekend or a well-deserved vacation. We'll also give you a monthly coffee-shop stipend to switch up your workspace and get inspired outside the office. And when you've been with us for five years? You'll earn a fully paid one-month sabbatical to truly unplug and reflect—we call it a thank-you for your impact and dedication.
Benefits: World-class medical, dental, and vision policies.
Team Connection: Annual company off-sites in fun locations. We've done New York, Costa Rica, Whistler, Palm Springs, San Diego, and Mexico City.
Volunteering: Every quarter, Zipliners get a paid day off to volunteer for a nonprofit of their choice.
Learning: We support continuous learning and provide unlimited access to our Udemy Business account
Great humans, great work: Work with kind, collaborative teammates who care about doing meaningful work and making a real impact. We value diversity of all kinds and are committed to building a diverse and inclusive workplace where we learn from each other. We are an equal opportunity employer and welcome people of all different backgrounds, experiences, abilities, and perspectives.
We may be remote, but we're anything but disconnected. Zipline is a thriving, dynamic team spread across the globe—collaborating, innovating, and having a blast along the way.
Zipliners work from all over—vans, boats, Airbnbs, and everything in between. No office? No problem. Our culture still feels like one big hug.
Even though we're distributed, we make space to connect—whether it's our weekly all-company social or gathering in person at our yearly retreats. We're building something meaningful together, and we're glad you're considering being a part of it.
We can't wait to meet you!
We use AI tools to support our recruitment process, including helping us organize applications and identify early matches based on role criteria. That said, every rejection decision is made by a human. We encourage candidates to apply authentically and avoid relying solely on AI-generated responses, especially during interviews.
