About Fetch
Fetch is how modern pet parents give their pets the best care 🐶🐱. One pink app 🩷 for insurance, health, and care – easy, fair, and kinda fun. We've raised our Series A from Lightspeed and Airtree, customers love us (rated #1 by Choice Magazine!), and we're growing fast.
We're looking for a Front-end Engineer who's obsessed with craft – someone who cares about how things look, feel, and behave, and wants to build beautiful product experiences that pet parents (and vets) love.
Location: Sydney (Hybrid – Tue/Wed/Thu in-office)
Compensation: Series A salary + meaningful equity upside
Stack: TypeScript, React, React Native, Next.js, GCP
Frontend: React, modern component patterns, design systems, performance
Tooling: Figma + Cursor + Claude, and unlimited AI tools – no token limits
Your role
You'll set (and raise) the quality bar for the UI. You'll work closely with design and product to ship experiences that feel polished, fast, and intuitive.
Build delightful UI in React with strong interaction design and visual polish
Help evolve our design system (components, tokens, accessibility patterns)
Make the app feel fast: performance, rendering, loading states, perceived speed
Use AI tools daily to move faster without compromising quality
Collaborate tightly with product, design, ops, and vets to ship outcomes, not tickets
Write reliable, maintainable code: testing, review, and thoughtful architecture
What you'll build
High-craft product surfaces in the customer app and internal tools (workflows, claims, vet comms)
A consistent component library and design system that scales
Frontend foundations: routing patterns, state management, observability, feature flags
UX improvements that reduce confusion and increase trust (copy, empty states, progress states)
UI for AI-powered features (structured outputs, explainability, clear "what happened" states)
About you
You're early-to-mid career, but you punch above your weight. You care about quality, you ship, and you notice the little things.
3–5 years building and shipping frontend product (or equivalent through projects)
Strong React + TypeScript fundamentals
Great taste: layout, spacing, motion, and the details that make UI feel "done", uncompromising on exceptional design
Product thinking: you care about the user goal, not just the implementation
Comfortable working with designers in Figma and giving constructive feedback
You care about accessibility, responsiveness, and cross-browser behaviour
You enjoy iterating in small steps and polishing the last 10%
Bonus: experience with design systems, mobile, or performance tuning
What it's like here
We're ambitious, collaborative, and genuinely enjoy building together. The Fetch team is smart, thoughtful, and kind – low ego, open, caring, and always supportive.
You'll be involved early in strategy. You're encouraged to give your opinion and debate with founders and the rest of the team
Weird is welcome. We value unexpected perspectives and people who think differently, so just be you
Unlimited AI tooling - no token limits or approvals needed. Just try things
Work on a product genuinely loved by tens and tens of thousands of pets, pet parents and vets
We're growing FAST. It's an exciting time to join and you'll directly impact the future of our products
We say "steward" not "owner" – the accountability is real, the language signals how we hold it
And the perks:
Competitive Series A salary + meaningful equity
Hybrid working (3 days Sydney office, flexible WFH)
Latest MacBook Pro and a top setup
Two team retreats each year
Office dogs for cuddles and interruptions
Bean to cup coffee machine, unlimited fruit and snacks. Toblerone on-tap
