Kit is an email-first operating system for creators who mean business. We help creators grow and monetize their audience with ease. For coaches, YouTubers, authors, podcasters, and other creatives, there isn't a better marketing hub to rely on to grow audiences, automate email marketing, and sell digital products — all within one platform.
More importantly, there isn't a team more committed to helping creators earn a living. We're on a mission to help creators earn $1 billion using our creator marketing platform. We have always been 100% independent and 100% remote.
We are proud to have built a product that our customers love, and we look for people who have enthusiasm and belief in our mission, vision, and values to join our team. We're also embracing AI thoughtfully — both in how we build and how we hire to ensure our team is adaptable, innovative, and ready for what's next.
We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer II to build Kit's core publishing platform and creator growth experiences.
You will be joining the Builders team, which builds the suite of publishing tools creators use to create emails, landing pages, and newsletters. Our team also stewards Kit's core application experience and design system, along with our frontend platform tooling.
This is a hands-on role for a product-minded full-stack engineer who excels at crafting exceptional user experiences. You'll architect complex features while collaborating closely with Product and Design to deliver impactful solutions that elevate how creators experience our publishing platform. You're proficient across the stack with strong backend fundamentals, but you love digging into Figma and building beautiful user experiences in close collaboration with Design. You'll help us raise the bar for our team's technical practices and code quality while architecting our biggest features.
You combine technical depth with leadership and extreme ownership. You partner closely with Product and Design to shape the "what" as well as the "how." You thrive in ambiguity, take initiative, and elevate the people around you.
You'll report to the Engineering Manager who leads the Builders team, a cross-functional product team at Kit. You'll collaborate closely with a Product Manager, Product Designer, and peer Software Engineers.
You'll also have access to a group of Engineers across Kit for support and mentorship, and will start with a peer onboarding buddy who will help you navigate our systems and codebase.
You will stand out with:
We're 100% remote with team members across the globe. We work mostly on East Coast time—so if you're based on the West Cost of the United States, Europe, or Asia, you might have a few early mornings or late evenings. We do our best to keep things reasonable, but a little time zone juggling comes with the territory. The core collaboration hours for this team are 10:45am to 2pm Eastern Time. We promote flexible work outside these core hours.
Kit has standardized salaries based on position, no matter where you live. For this role, we're hiring at a level 4 out of 5 levels, with an expected starting salary of $186,000. Level is determined based on experience and our interview process.
Within level 4, we have three progression steps — early ($180,000), midpoint ($186,000), and late ($192,000) — that reflect where someone is in their development within that level. As the default, new hires start at the midpoint salary tier. In some cases a hiring manager may recommend a different starting point based on specific, documented rationale.
We know that most people hate interviewing (we relate!). We aim to make it as good of an experience as we can, and part of that includes keeping you informed during the process.
Here’s what you can expect from the process:
To get started, complete this application, including answers to the questions on the next page. We read every single application, and your responses to our application questions help put your experience into context. We’ll keep you informed through every step
We value diversity in all of its forms. Research tells us that applicants who are female or non-binary, as well as applicants who are people of color, are less likely to apply for roles they do not feel 100% qualified for. If you think you meet more than 50% of our requirements but fewer than 100% of them, please apply.
We’re imperfect communicators, so think of our job postings as the starting point for discussion rather than proof that you shouldn’t apply.
