About Rive
Rive is where designers, animators, and developers build interactive experiences. Design, animate, and code in one place. What you build in the editor is what ships in your app, game, or website. No mockups, no prototypes, no handoff. The real thing.
Companies like Spotify, Duolingo, LinkedIn, Google, and Fortune 500 automakers use our open-source runtimes to build once and ship everywhere — websites, apps, games, and vehicles.
With Rive, designers and developers work with the same tools. No silos. What you see in the editor is what ships in production
Rive is looking for an experienced Software Product Engineer to join our Engineering team with a focus on our Editor.

Ideally you've worked on complex, software products with the ability to create custom UI components when needed and an interest in learning and working in Dart/Flutter.
What you'll do
You'll join a small, dynamic team working on an exciting product. The editor is the UI for the Rive product and a key piece of the Rive ecosystem. You'll play an important role in driving new feature development as well as implementing quality of life improvements.

Requirements
What you will bring
