About Canals

Canals is a fully remote, profitable startup transforming the industrial supply chain ($10T industry) with AI. Our platform seamlessly integrates with the systems distributors already use, automating tedious tasks and reducing failure points in moving physical goods across the globe.

We’re a 100 person team (60 in engineering) distributed across North and South America.

The Opportunity

Canals is growing quickly, and the complexity of what we’re building is too. We’re looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer to help us design and build rich, performant web applications that make intricate supply-chain operations simple and intuitive.

You’ll own major parts of our frontend architecture, collaborate closely with product and design, and bring beautiful, highly-usable experiences to life. This is a high-impact role for someone who loves turning messy real-world workflows into elegant, reliable interfaces.

What You’ll Do
  • Build and maintain core frontend features using Svelte, TypeScript, and modern web tooling.

  • Own large, complex UI projects end-to-end — from architecture and implementation to polish and performance.

  • Collaborate with product designers and backend engineers to translate business logic into intuitive interfaces.

  • Shape and evolve our design system and component libraries for consistency and speed.

  • Optimize performance, accessibility, and reliability across browsers and devices.

  • Review code, mentor teammates, and help raise the overall technical bar of the frontend team.

What You'll Bring
  • Typically, 5+ years of professional experience in frontend or full-stack engineering.

  • Expert-level knowledge of TypeScript, and modern JavaScript/HTML/CSS.

  • Proven experience shipping complex, data-driven web apps in production.

  • Deep understanding of frontend architecture, state management, and API integration patterns.

  • An eye for design and empathy for users — you care about how things look and feel.

  • Strong communication and collaboration skills in a remote, async environment.

  • Experience with frontend performance optimization is a plus.

Why Join Canals
  • Real-world impact: your work improves global supply chains, saving customers time and reducing risk.

  • Strong engineering culture: we invest in quality and documentation to keep moving fast sustainably.

  • Remote-first, flexible work environment across North and South America.

  • Strong product-market fit with tons of customer love.

  • Talent dense team with diverse backgrounds and experiences.
