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, Paper, Cursor, Claude, Codex - whatever you need and 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 website, customer app, vet portal 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 super ambitious, 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 and giving constructive feedback

• You care about accessibility, responsiveness, and cross-browser behaviour

• You enjoy iterating in small steps and polishing the last 10%

• You know how to get the best out of using AI to ship fast

• 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 have a real voice in how we build. Share your ideas and debate with 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 experiment and learn.

• Work on a product genuinely loved by thousands of pets and pet parents.

• We're growing FAST. It's an exciting time to join and you'll directly impact the future of our products

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 (Blue Mountains, SXSW, Hunter Valley)

• Office dogs for cuddles and interruptions

• Bean to cup coffee machine, unlimited fruit and snacks. Toblerone on-tap
