Full Stack Engineer

The Company

Parq delivers the world's fastest, highest-quality Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs), transforming the complex environmental reporting ecosystem. Through cutting-edge AI and large language models, we empower manufacturers to reduce their environmental impact and create a sustainable future.

Our founder created Parq after experiencing the EPD process firsthand. Frustrated by its lengthy duration, exorbitant consulting fees, and complex stakeholder requirements, he witnessed how manufacturing companies—the very builders of our world—were being underserved. This inspired him to revolutionize the process.

The opportunity is massive : in 2024, over $400 billion in construction projects required environmental product declarations. Since our founding in 2023, Parq has gained significant traction with ten recurring customers—and over 20 pilots and early-stage engagements.

We blend in-person collaboration at our Austin, TX office with flexible 3–5 day work weeks, nurturing a culture where freedom, gratitude, and integrity drive meaningful impact.

Your Role

Build a new platform from the ground up : Parq is seeking a Senior Full Stack Engineer with a strong front-end focus to spearhead development of our web dashboard and data tools. You’ll own the user interface and experience for a our new SaaS platform – zero-to-one development with no legacy code. If you thrive in fast-moving startups and love working with Next.js / React to create beautiful, data-rich applications, this is your opportunity to have outsized impact on both a product and mission.

Why this role is special : You’ll be building from scratch in a greenfield environment, transforming complex, unstructured datasets into intuitive visualizations and insights. As the frontend lead, you will architect and build interactive dashboards and analytics tools that help users understand their data at a glance. You’ll also collaborate closely with our backend team (working with Python, FastAPI, LLMs, and retrieval-augmented generation systems) – together bringing cutting-edge AI features to life in the UI. This means you’ll be on the forefront of integrating modern AI (LLM workflows, embedding-based search) into a seamless product experience for our customers.

What You’ll Do

• Lead Frontend Development : Design and implement the entire front-end architecture using Next.js and React. You will set coding standards, choose frameworks / libs, and build out the structure of a high-performance single-page application.
• Own User Experience : Take ownership of UI / UX decisions for dashboards and SaaS platform components. You’ll have freedom (and responsibility) to make the product easy to use and visually appealing, from layout and navigation to performance optimizations and accessibility.
• Build Data-Rich Features : Create intuitive dashboards, interactive visualizations, and data tools that turn unstructured data into actionable insights for users. You’ll be plotting complex data in clear, compelling ways – think charts, graphs, and real-time updates for analytics.
• Innovate with AI & Search : Develop frontend components that integrate with our AI-powered backend – e.g. embedding-based search interfaces, smart autocomplete and filtering, and displaying results from LLM analysis. You’ll help surface outputs of our retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines in a user-friendly manner.
• Collaborate Across the Stack : Work closely with backend engineers to consume FastAPI endpoints and ensure smooth end-to-end functionality. You’ll influence API design and adjust frontend implementations to accommodate large language model outputs and other backend services.
• Startup Leadership : Operate in a small, fast-paced startup team where you can wear multiple hats. You might prototype a quick feature for a demo one week and refine the design of a core component the next. Your ideas will directly shape the product, and you’ll help establish best practices for the growing engineering team.
