Senior Frontend Engineer - Community

Patreon is the best place for creators to fire up their fandoms, share exclusive work, and turn their passions into lasting creative businesses. Over 250,000 podcasters, writers, musicians, artists, and other creative people use Patreon to reach their biggest fans directly and earn an income for the value they provide. Creators can offer paid memberships that unlock access to exclusive work and community, or sell individual digital items from their own Patreon shops.

Ultimately, our goal is simple: fund the creative class. And we’re leaders in that space, having sent over $3.5 billion to creators since our founding. We’re continuing to invest heavily in building the best creator tools with the best team in the creator economy, and looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer to support our mission.

This role is based in San Francisco or New York and open to those who are able to be in-office 2 days per week on a hybrid work model.

About the Role

The Community Team was created to help creators better connect with their fans, as well as help fans engage with each other in deeper and more meaningful ways. The team works on both net-new and existing products, such as Chats.

We are looking for product-minded engineers with a passion for deepening the relationships between creators and fans.


Your responsibilities will include:

  • Lead and contribute to the design and development of new community experiences that will ship to the Patreon.com website

  • Building with scale in mind: given the dynamic nature of communities (think: AMAs or a highly anticipated release that everyone wants to chat about), the technical solutions on this team must work for both small, large, and “bursty” communities alike.

  • Drive clarity and alignment on technical vision and direction

  • Advocate for engineering systems and solutions that will accelerate product development in the long-run

  • Work with a fully cross functional team to define and deliver new product features

  • Build a strong product-minded engineering culture by mentoring and guiding other Frontend engineers

  • Build with Craft | We sign our name to every deliverable, just like the creators we serve.

  • Make it Happen | We don’t quit. We learn and deliver.

  • Win Together | We grow as individuals. We win as a team.

We hire talented and passionate people from different backgrounds across the organization. If you’re excited about a role but your past experience doesn’t match with every bullet point outlined above, we strongly encourage you to apply anyway. If you’re a creator at heart, are energized by our mission, and share our company values, we’d love to hear from you.
