About us
We're building the creative layer for modern communication. Every month, over a billion people make presentations — but the tools they use to make them haven't evolved in decades. We're changing that, using AI to disrupt a massive market.
📈 Millions of people rely on Gamma to create, teach, and persuade, creating more than 1 million gammas every day.
💻 We see Gamma as the next great workplace tool, combining viral B2C love with a massive B2B opportunity. We believe AI can be a true creative partner: one that understands context, clarity, and taste.
💸 We’ve reached a $2.1B valuation, crossed $100M in annual recurring revenue, and have been profitable since 2023.
💙 We're an imaginative, passionate team who takes our work seriously, but not ourselves. Our culture is warm, a little quirky, and fueled by curiosity.
About the role
You'll build Gamma's visual experience: pixel-perfect layouts, smooth animations, and responsive interactions that make the product feel magical. That means owning design system components from buttons and inputs to complex editor UI primitives, implementing polished micro-interactions and transitions, and solving tough browser challenges across compatibility and rendering. You'll sweat the details (spacing, typography, hover states, loading states, error states, edge cases) while keeping frontend performance sharp.
As a Frontend Engineer focused on UI and design systems, you'll partner closely with designers to translate high-fidelity mocks into production-ready, accessible components and build reusable, well-documented component libraries that scale across the product. This role requires mastery of CSS, a sharp eye for craft, and an instinct for when to polish versus when to iterate.
Our team has a strong in-office culture and works in person 4–5 days per week in San Francisco. We love working together to stay creative and connected, with flexibility to work from home when focus matters most.
What you'll do
- Own design system components from foundational elements to complex editor UI primitives, with accessibility built in
- Build pixel-perfect layouts, smooth animations, and responsive interactions across the product
- Implement polished micro-interactions and transitions that make Gamma feel crafted and intentional
- Optimize rendering, bundle size, and interaction responsiveness to maintain 60fps animations
- Solve complex browser challenges including cross-browser compatibility, edge cases, and rendering quirks
- Partner with designers to translate high-fidelity mocks into production-ready components
What you'll bring
- 3–5+ years of frontend engineering with deep React expertise and mastery of CSS including flexbox, grid, animations, transforms, and browser quirks
- Sharp eye for detail and craft, with the ability to spot 1px misalignments, janky animations, and inconsistent spacing
- Experience building complex, interactive UIs such as editors, design tools, or animation-heavy applications
- Performance optimization skills across React rendering, CSS performance, and animation frame rates, with experience building reusable, accessible, well-documented component libraries
- Thoughtful approach to user experience including loading states, error handling, and responsive behavior
- Experience with animation libraries or visual editing tools (Nice to have)
Compensation range:
The base salary for this full-time position, which spans multiple internal levels depending on qualifications, ranges between $180K - $275K plus benefits & equity.
Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors, including but not limited to experience and expertise in the requirements listed above.
If you're interested in this role but you don't meet every requirement, we encourage you to apply anyway! We're always excited about meeting great people.

Life at Gamma
🤝 You’ll fit right in if…
- You get energy from small teams doing big things.
- You love when design, code, and storytelling overlap.
- You default to action, even when the answer isn’t clear yet.
- You value details, but know when to ship and move on.
- You bring both the spreadsheets and the sparkle, equal parts workhorse and unicorn.
- You believe AI should amplify creativity, not replace it.
- You know kindness and intensity are not opposites.
- You like working with people who care deeply: about their craft, their teammates, and the users on the other side of the screen.
💙 Who we are
Gamma is full of imaginative, passionate people who take their work seriously but not themselves. The culture is warm, a little quirky, and fueled by curiosity. It’s the kind of place where you’ll debate a pixel on Monday, laugh over someone’s keyboard setup on Tuesday, and ship something remarkable by Friday.
We care about craft, move with intention, and don’t mind getting a little scrappy. It’s fast, creative, and occasionally chaotic — but that’s what makes it interesting.
💬 Here’s a bit about what it’s like to work here, from people on the inside:
We asked the team what makes Gamma, Gamma. Here were some of their answers:
- "quirky, inspiring, fun, a little wild in the best way"
- "You can have an idea and just run with it."
- "Everyone’s talented and humble — the mix keeps you sharp."
- "We ship cool stuff, learn a ton, and laugh a lot doing it."
