We’re small on purpose, and we take a lot of pride in punching above our weight. We’re six people, but Tailwind CSS is installed over 30 million times per month, and is used by the world’s biggest companies to build the world’s best websites.
We’re independent and profitable, and we do this because it’s fun. We’re in this to enjoy the actual work we do every day, not to grind it out in hopes of a big exit in the future.
If this sounds like the sort of place you’d like to work, we’d love to hear from you.
Build a tool for capturing videos for ourShowcasesite — to automate creating preview videos that feel like a real person scrolling through a site.
Buildinteractive demosto explain dynamic viewport units — to include in the documentation along with the release of Tailwind CSS v3.4.
After you start, you’d work on upcoming projects like:
Design and build an interactive microsite for the Tailwind CSS v4.0 release with thoughtfully crafted demos that communicate the most important improvements in a visual way.
Prototype APIs for scroll-driven animations in Tailwind CSS, finding the right balance between simplicity and flexibility, and making our users feel like they have superpowers.
Explore new color palettes with automatic dark mode support, carefully figuring out the right abstractions for different levels of hierarchy that apply universally to different projects.
Research and design text-shadow support for Tailwind CSS, finally.
This is a fully remote position with a salary of $275,000 USD, open to candidates in the Eastern (UTC-5) to Central European (UTC+1) timezones.
We’re hiring a Staff Software Engineer to work on Tailwind CSS, Headless UI, and our supporting ecosystem of tools like the Tailwind CSS IntelliSense extension for VS Code.
You’d have a wide range of responsibilities, including:
Build and document new features for projects like Tailwind CSS and Headless UI.
Contribute improvements to upstream projects like Lightning CSS, Next.js, and Vite.
Maintain CI workflows and automations for running tests and building releases.
Manage issues and contributions from the community to our open-source repositories.
Define and uphold engineering standards with a focus on code quality, performance, and documentation, to make sure we’re always shipping work we can be proud of.
Manage project priorities and adjust scope to meet project deadlines without sacrifing on top-level goals.
Here are some real examples of projects you would have worked on in the last few months:
Create aRust libraryfor extracting utility class names — a tool that can scan an entire directory of template files as fast as possible and extract potential class names in parallel.
Write afast CSS parserin TypeScript — to parse only the exact amount of detail needed by Tailwind’s internals, looking for domain-specific shortcuts to make it significantly faster than existing libraries for our needs.
Fix an issue withscroll-lockingin Headless UI — to make sure scrollable elements in dialogs can still be scrolled on iOS.
Campaign fornew APIswe need in Vite — prepare a compelling argument for improvements we need to support Tailwind CSS and collaborate with the Vite core team to prototype a solution.
After you start, you’d work on upcoming projects like:
Develop a Tailwind CSS bundler plugin for Next.js — to generate your CSS using the module graph instead of scanning the file system, working with our contacts at Vercel to get it right.
Design a set of IDE integration APIs for Tailwind CSS — first-class, stable, documented APIs that editor teams like JetBrains can rely on to add things like completions, lint warnings, class sorting, and more to their tools.
Design, build, and document a Tooltip component for Headless UI — making sure it’s fully accessible, with a flexible but delightful API.
Build a backwards compatibility layer for Tailwind CSS v4.0 — re-introduce support for JavaScript configuration files, explore codemod tooling, and make sure existing community plugins are as compatible as possible with the new engine.
This is a fully remote position with a salary of $275,000 USD, open to candidates in the Eastern (UTC-5) to Central European (UTC+1) timezones.
