About The Role

As a Founding Frontend Engineer, you're more than a frontend dev or UI designer. Youre a user experience architect with full-stack awareness. Youll join a fast-moving engineering team that operates with a high level of ownership and a user-first mentality. Youll engage directly with users at biotech companies to understand their workflows, redesign and build better experiences, and ship high-quality production UIs. Your work will directly impact how biopharma teams run clinical trials and how quickly patients can get access to life-changing therapies.

Were reimagining how biotech users interact with their data to make critical decisions. Our goal is to put users in the pilot's seat: building a product experience that adapts to their specific roles, accelerates their workflows, and empowers them to act decisively. No matter how much AI is used, it only matters if it blends seamlessly into the user experience to maximize clarity, actionability, and control.

What Youre Looking For

• Ownership & Product Craft: As a founding engineer, youll drive how our product looks and feels from first click to insight delivery. Youll make critical decisions that shape the user experience and visual language of Miracle.
• Full User Focus: You care deeply about how products flow, feel, and respond. Youre not just building interfaces; youre solving problems and removing friction for real people.
• Design + Engineering Blend: From component architecture to UX wireframes, youll think in systems and flows.
• Real-World Impact: Your work helps accelerate clinical trials and improve healthcare for patients waiting on new treatments.

What Youll Do

• Design and Build: Craft responsive, performant, and intuitive UIs using React/Next/TypeScript.
• Polish and Iterate: Drive interaction design, component consistency, and frontend quality to a high standard.
• User Research & Feedback Loops: Talk to real users running clinical trials at biotech companies to understand where workflows break and where software and AI can help.
• Own Frontend Systems: Help architect and maintain our frontend stack, design system, and UX patterns.
• Full-Stack Flexibility: Collaborate across the stack when needed to integrate frontend features with backend APIs and data pipelines.
• Collaborate Closely: Work tightly with the CEO, engineers, and biotech users to translate pain points into elegant product experiences that solve those needs.

What Youll Need To Succeed

• 3+ Years Experience: Ideally in early-stage startups or high-ownership engineering roles where youve owned UX end-to-end.
• Strong Frontend Expertise: Fluency in React/Next, TypeScript, HTML/CSS. You've shipped polished user-facing features in production.
• Full-Stack Comfort: You're capable of contributing across the stack when needed (e.g., APIs, data integration, infrastructure hooks).
• Design Mindset: You have strong product sense and understand how great UI/UX helps solve user pain points. Bonus if youre comfortable using Figma.
• Systems Thinking: You build reusable components and scalable layouts, not just pages.
• SF Location: Ability to join us 3+ days a week at our new SF office located near Montgomery Station

Benefits

• Health & Wellness: Fully covered medical insurance options, plus flexible dental and vision plans
• Financial Security: 401(k), HSA/FSA, and commuter benefits
• Growth Opportunities: Leadership potential in a profitable, high-growth health tech startup

Our Culture
