Tailwind Labs (https://tailwindcss.com/) | Remote (Americas/Europe) | Full-time

We’re hiring a Design Engineer and Staff Software Engineer to work on Tailwind CSS, Headless UI, and related projects full-time.

- Design Engineer ($275k/yr): https://tailwindcss.com/careers/design-engineer

- Staff Software Engineer ($275k/yr): https://tailwindcss.com/careers/staff-software-engineer

We're small, independent, and profitable, with a team of just 6 people doing millions in revenue, and growing sustainably every year. You'd work directly with the founders on open-source software used by millions of people.

If you like the idea of working on a small team that cares about craft and isn't trying to achieve VC scale, I think this is a pretty awesome place to do your best work.



Love Tailwind and this is definitely a great opportunity. I just wish we figure out remote worldwide sometime in future.


I really like your culture and I'm considering applying, even though I'm in Romania, which is CET+2, and my profile might not fit all your requirements. I like the breadth of the tasks the Staff Software Engineer works on.


How does tailwind make money? I can't find any licensing or paid support options.


They sell a nice and polished collection of components and templates: https://tailwindui.com/all-access


That’s really cool.


The job postings say European time zones only, but this says Americas as well, can you clarify?


Hey! The job postings say Eastern (UTC-5) to Central European (UTC+1) — Eastern is the American east coast. Most important thing is overlap from around 9am – 12pm Eastern, so open to other US timezones as well if someone can sustainably be available during those hours.

We have a pretty collaborative/sync culture here. Everyone on the team really enjoys pair programming together or working through designs live in Figma, and wouldn't want to build the team in a way where there are people who can never work together because of timezones.


do you pay equity or just the cash?


The listing says you'll be "self-employed". I doubt that contractors get equity.


Can’t wait for that Tailwind IPO! /s
