Summary

Paper, a growing remote design-tool startup backed by investors including Accel, Basecase, and ICONIQ, is hiring a principal-level Design Engineer to help build a fast, collaborative product for designers. The role requires a recognized track record in both design and engineering, with expertise in creating complex UI features, browser and DOM behavior, fine interaction design, minimal-library development, and performance optimization toward a 120 fps target. The 12-person company emphasizes ownership, high shipping velocity, continuous critique and improvement, and willingness to contribute beyond formal responsibilities. It offers flexible hours, equipment funding, meaningful equity, a fully remote international team, and an annual in-person gathering. The application process includes resume review, two short interviews, and either a take-home assignment or a one-to-two-week paid trial in which candidates ship a feature while collaborating through Slack and GitHub.
