Salary
You will lead the technical and operational development of MUI Store. Details of the Role Location: Remote (preference for UTC-6 to UTC+5). Type of work: Full-time (contractor or employee depending on circumstances) Start date: Immediately. Level: 4 or above. We're a remote company, we prefer asynchronous communication over meetings. We work independently, the rest of us won't know what you're doing day-to-day unless you tell us. About the company MUI started with Material UI, the most successful React implementation of Google's Material Design. It has gained a large following, not only due to the fidelity to Material Design, but also because of the number of components, its carefully designed component API, obsession for details, and community engagement. Today, countless teams and organizations rely on our open-source libraries to build their design system. A couple of years ago, we started to expand our suite of products. We released MUI X, a collection of advanced components; MUI Design kits, the MUI components available for the most popular design tools; and also host Templates, a set of pre-built UI kits. We've seen rapid growth with all of them (2-3x per year) and we have more to come. We are a fully distributed team, spread across multiple timezones. We work mainly asynchronously, relying mostly on written collaboration. Every contributor has the freedom to define how they work — the rest of us won't know what you're doing day-to-day unless you tell us. For additional details about the MUI team and culture, you can check our careers and about pages and also our public Handbook. Why we're hiring The orders on the MUI Store are growing fast (x2-3 YoY). We need talented people to keep that going!

You will be responsible to step up and carry forward the development of the store on multiple fronts: implementing new features, reviewing new template submissions, defining the product direction, taking care of operational needs, and a lot more. Why this is interesting You will get the opportunity to run MUI Store as a small start-up inside the company. Our solution empowers React developers to build awesome applications faster – we see over a million developers on MUI's docs every month. Hundreds of thousands of developers use MUI every month.
