Glue is not just another team chat app. We're building the first platform for agentic team chat—a workspace where AI agents and humans collaborate as peers. Our platform supports leading AI models (GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, and open-source alternatives) and integrates with thousands of apps through the Model Context Protocol (MCP), enabling teams to direct actions across their entire tech stack without leaving chat.
We recently raised $20M in Series A funding. Co-founded by David Sacks and Evan Owen, Glue is redefining how teams communicate and get work done in the AI era.
We’re looking for an experienced and passionate staff-level software engineer to join our front-end development team. As a key member of the early team, you will be instrumental in stewarding front-end best-practices architecture, and craftsmanship across the team. You will be pivotal in recruiting and developing a world-class engineering team that will support the massive vision of Glue’s impact on work communication. Our problems are heavily UI/UX-focused, and our technical foundation -- modern Typescript, React, & GraphQL -- is simple, straightforward, and battle-tested. As a technical leader of the team, you’ll get to help set the direction of the product, codebase, and team culture. We ship daily and experiment with ideas and interactions as we envision them, focusing on usability, attention to detail, performance, and innovation around optimal team communication.
