Senior SDK Engineer

Frame is a compliance infrastructure company powering payments for complex, highly regulated industries. We enable businesses to move money with confidence by embedding compliance and payments into a single, intelligent platform. Our ambition is to become the infrastructure layer that regulated businesses rely on to operate, scale, and access services globally.

At Frame, how we build matters as much as what we build. Our values shape how we work, make decisions, and support our merchants. We're headquartered in Los Angeles with a globally distributed team. We're committed to running an inclusive and accessible hiring process. If you need any adjustments along the way, let us know.

Let's solve problems together

We are hiring a Senior SDK Engineer to build and own Frame.js, our Type Script SDK and web component library that merchants use to embed compliance‑aware payment flows into their products. This is a craft role. The SDK is what developers actually touch. It needs to be obvious on first read, reliable in production, and thoughtfully designed at every level of the abstraction.

Own Frame.js, the Type Script SDK merchants use to embed identity verification, payments, and compliance flows. Build web components that handle complex compliance interactions while remaining simple to integrate. Write developer documentation, integration guides, and the examples that make adoption frictionless. Manage SDK versioning, backwards compatibility strategy, and the release process that keeps it reliable. Build internal tooling and testing infrastructure that ensures SDK quality across merchant environments.

Maintain feedback loops with merchants and the Frame engineering team so the SDK evolves with real usage.

Experience building payment, identity, or compliance SDKs is a strong plus, as is managing a public SDK through versioning, deprecation, and breaking changes. Familiarity with web components, custom elements, or shadow DOM, fintech or regulated infrastructure background, or experience with Go or Ruby on the backend complementing front‑end SDK work, is also valued.

Sees the SDK as a product, not a wrapper. You sweat the details that make the difference between an API that clicks on first read and one that frustrates. You hold a high bar for developer experience and treat documentation as a first‑class deliverable.
