About the platform

We launched in 2016 as a marketplace for fonts with a subscription service. In the last 8 years, we have been through tremendous growth, and we're just getting started!

About the team:

The Growth team is in the forefront of user experience at Creative Fabrica. We build and optimize key features of the platform (products and categories, search, logged in user experience) and make sure that every crafter in the world gets to know Creative Fabrica.

We move fast, experiment a lot, and yes sometimes we also break things - join us if this sits well with you! We work with small iterations, deploy multiple times a day, run experiments, learn from results and continuously improve the platform.

  • Proficiency with modern web development toolchain (Typescript, React, GraphQL, TailwindCSS, and Turborepo) and platforms (Cloudflare, Cloudfront)
  • Strong understanding and commitment to software development best practices, including code quality standards, observability, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations

Nice to have:

  • Experience hiring and mentoring (senior) frontend engineers 
  • Be a thought leader among the engineering community at Creative Fabrica
  • Exceptional communication skills and sense of ownership
  • Experience in building high-traffic B2B / B2C products, particularly marketplaces / eCommerce
