Why We're Hiring For This Role
Tread delivers a software platform that transforms complex workflows from order to cash into beautiful consumer grade software that makes all construction materials management stakeholders' lives easy, and less chaotic. Over time, our software will transition from a workflow aide, to a true co-pilot. Managing this transition requires gaining the trust of our users, and delivering this experience in a well-designed, simple and easy to understand interface is critical.

As we’ve executed on this transition, we’ve grown the need to add a true UI and Design focused Frontend Engineer.
