Product Engineer (Desktop/Electron)

Hey! We're team Granola 👋

If you haven’t already, check out what we’re building and why you should work here.

We're looking for a Product Engineer with deep experience building Electron apps to help us deliver a world-class Granola experience on Windows and macOS.

Our macOS app (built with Electron) is loved by users and growing fast. The Windows version is already well underway and now we're looking for someone to help us bring it to life.

We want someone who's shipped complex Electron apps and who knows how to make cross-platform apps feel at home on both Windows and macOS.

In this role, you will:

• Be heavily involved Granola's Electron app for Windows and MacOS, from build to launch and beyond

• Build thoughtful, delightful features that feel native to users on Windows and MacOS

• Work closely with design to craft a cohesive cross-platform user experience

• Solve tricky cross-platform challenges in Electron and Node.js

• Ensure the app is fast, stable and efficient

Your background looks something like:

• 5+ years of experience building and shipping software, with a strong focus on Electron

• Shipped production Electron apps for Windows

• Deeply understand how Electron apps works, from packaging to updates, performance to native modules

• Comfortable working with React, Node.js, and TypeScript in an Electron environment

• Use Windows as a primary dev environment, and understand how users expect apps to behave

• Pragmatic and opinionated about how Electron apps should feel and perform

• Essential: you've worked on cross-platform apps (macOS + Windows), or know how to design for both

As a person, you…

• Are first and foremost a builder

• Are excited to work in-person from our office in London (most of the time)

• Love working in a startup environment (you either have experience working in a startup or are really drawn to the zero-to-one phase)

• Value working with people who are kind, ambitious, and pragmatic

About the opportunity

We are living in the most exciting time for tool builders since Engelbart's demo in 1968. We want to assemble the best crew to build this future together, here in London. Our compensation philosophy is to pay slightly above market on salary and above market on equity.

We do our best work in person, and so our team spends time together five days per week in our new, bright, and spacious office at Old Street. We are happy to offer relocation assistance to candidates who'll be moving to London to join us.

Lastly, we think amazing talent comes from all kinds of life journeys and experiences. If what is written above speaks to you, whether you look like a fit on paper or not, please reach out.
