What you'd be doing 🛠️

• Go through 2 days of industry specific and Motion specific onboarding, pair with a senior dev to set up the codebase, and push a feature in your first week.
• Own a major initiative in your first 3 months.
• Work on a small, high-ownership, cross-functional team, with weekly cycles.
• Build user facing product ranging from cutting edge AI support to onboarding to creative discovery tools.

Our ideal fit brings ✨

• 5+ years of experience turning designs and product requirements into products people love and use
• 0 to 1 experience
• Proficiency with React, TypeScript, and Node.js (or closely related technologies – we’re open)
• Excitement about using AI as part of your workflow and keeping up with how fast it’s changing how we build software
• Any background: self-taught, bootcamp, degree, founder. We love talent from everywhere

...and you'll be a strong fit if you align with these qualities:

• A strong sense of ownership: you make decisions, stand behind them, and fix things quickly when they’re wrong
• A pragmatic mindset. You optimize for impact over perfection, care more about shipping real customer value than polishing every edge, and improve things over time
• Comfort thriving in a fast-moving startup where requirements are ambiguous, shift quickly, and clarity isn’t handed to you – you create it
• You enjoy being a strong individual contributor and a supportive teammate. Engineering is a team sport here 💪

  • In-person: Outside of the option to go to one of our offices, our team gets together in-person for a week every two months, and we have a company retreat every summer.
