Founding Frontend Engineer - Proofline
Role Overview
Proofline is live in production with institutional pilots underway.
Join our founding team as a full-stack engineer with a front-end focus.
You'll own the flagship product surface: an interactive, real-time graph canvas that serves as a dynamic, immersive map of team knowledge.
The platform supports smooth, collaborative experiences at scale—rendering from tens to thousands of nodes in real time.
You'll have a direct impact on how teams collaborate and structure knowledge, working on challenging technical problems and shipping innovative, user-centric features.
We value creative thinkers who combine strong engineering fundamentals with unique product perspectives and a willingness to work across the stack.

Location: HSR, Bengaluru (On-site)
Experience: 7+ years Responsibilities
Design and build intuitive, direct-manipulation interactions on the graph canvas (drag-to-restructure, inline editing, curation flows)
Own rendering performance and help drive our scaling roadmap (semantic collapse, virtualization, optimization)
Implement real-time multi-user collaboration on our websocket/CRDT foundation
Contribute across the stack as needed
Maintain and extend a precise, minimal design system (with no full-time designer on the team)
Requirements
- Full-stack engineering experience with deep React + TypeScript skills on the front end
- Delivered at least one complex, interactive surface: canvas, editor, graph/data-viz, or map – beyond standard CRUD
- Strong track record optimizing rendering performance, including profiling and working with SVG/canvas/WebGL trade-offs
- Experience with real-time or collaborative editing is a plus
- Excellent product and design instincts
How We Work
Small team, high trust, written decisions. Designs get adversarial review before code; PRs get automated review driven to zero open findings; features aren't done until verified on a live system. AI agents do a large share of the implementation—your leverage is judgment: framing the problem, freezing the right design, and knowing when the machine is wrong.
You Should Apply If
• You enjoy turning messy problems into concrete solutions.
• You thrive in fast-moving, low-process environments.
• You're excited about production engineering (monitoring, reliability, cost, latency).
You Should Not Apply If
• You want remote/hybrid (this is onsite Bangalore only).
• You prefer narrow tickets and minimal ambiguity.
• You prefer highly structured, slow-moving product organizations.
The Recruiter for this role is Ritesh Kalvellu. Apply to the role directly, and he will get back to you if your profile is relevant to the hiring requirements.
