We are hiring an Intermediate Front-End Developer to help build the surfaces that put Haply directly in our customers' hands.

About Haply

Haply Robotics builds the world's most precise haptic devices, deployed in research labs, industrial integration projects, and production environments where "good" and "right" are measured in milliseconds and millinewtons. As robots and autonomous systems grow more capable, humans still need intuitive ways to teach, guide, and supervise physical tasks, and Haply builds the platform that lets people do that through touch and motion.

Since 2018, we've built precision haptic controllers that let people and machines feel and respond to the physical world with microscopic precision. We've raised over $20 million CAD from leading venture and strategic investors, and we're partnering across robotics and industrial automation to bring touch and control into physical AI, building toward a leading, privately-valued Canadian company with real venture-scale upside for those who join us early.

About the Role

You'll join the front-end team building the surfaces that put Haply in our customers' hands. The centre of gravity is Haply Hub, our Tauri desktop application that pairs a JS/React frontend with a Rust backend and is the way most users interact with our hardware day-to-day. From there, you'll also work on our public web properties: the main website, the documentation hub, and the release/landing pages that ship alongside new product launches.

You'll work shoulder to shoulder with the rest of the front-end team, take direction and feedback from the product team, get direct signal from customers using our tools, and partner with our UX designers to turn ideas into shipped surfaces.

This is an intermediate role for someone who likes to ship. Fast iterations, polished UX, real users on the other end.

What You'll Do

Fundamentals

- Contribute to the front-end of Haply Hub, our Tauri 2 desktop app. Pair clean, minimal interfaces with a Rust backend, coordinate command and event flows,



and help ship across Windows, macOS, and Linux.
- Build and maintain our documentation hub: the public-facing docs site that developers and integrators rely on. Information architecture, search, code examples that actually run.
- Ship updates to the main Haply website and to the release/landing pages that go live with each product launch. The kind of work that needs to look intentional on day one.
- Collaborate with product and UX on configurators and integration UIs for our haptic devices and HARP. The kind of UX that lets a non-technical operator drive a six-axis robot through a haptic device without thinking about it.
- Contribute to front-end quality across the org: design tokens, componentization, performance, accessibility, instrumentation.

Ways of Working

- Takes ownership of assigned work from investigation through to a clean, reviewed solution, raising blockers and asking for guidance when needed.
- Plans changes before implementing. Writes up intent, considers impact on adjacent systems, and seeks review before making significant modifications.
- Communicates proactively with the team, especially when working near domain boundaries (e.g. control logic, firmware, hardware behaviour).
- Comfortable working without full domain context. Able to read code, ask the right questions, and contribute meaningfully alongside specialists.
- Proficiency with git and structured PR/review workflows, and familiarity with testing practices and multi-language apps.
- Experience working with existing codebases and multi-repo projects.

What We're Looking For

Required

- 2+ years of front-end development experience,



with experience in a TypeScript / React (or Preact) environment.
- Strong fundamentals on the modern web: HTML, CSS, accessibility, performance, browser quirks.
- Working knowledge of Rust + Tauri, or willingness to ramp up. Most of our desktop work is Tauri 2.
- Familiarity with at least one modern web framework for content sites (Next.js, Astro, or similar) and the basics of static vs. SSR approaches.
- Good sense of UX and visual design. You can take a Figma design and turn it into a polished interface.
- Comfortable using GitLab day-to-day: branches, MRs, code review, CI pipelines.
- Familiarity with Conventional Commits and up-to-date multi-platform CI on Windows, Linux, and macOS.
- You plan changes before implementing, consider the impact on adjacent systems, and seek review when needed.
- Comfortable taking ownership of assigned work while asking questions and raising blockers when needed.

Nice to have

- Experience with a Tauri (or Electron) desktop app.
- Experience building or maintaining a documentation site (Docusaurus, Mintlify, Nextra, custom).
- 3D / canvas / WebGL / Three.js for haptics and robot visualisations.
- WebSocket and streaming UIs against a Rust backend (tokio, axum).
- Visual design chops, motion / micro-interactions, brand-driven web work.
- Exposure to robotics, haptics, simulation, or motion-control concepts.
- Bilingual French/English. Working environment is bilingual.

Why Join Us

- A tight, autonomous team with short feedback loops — no layers to fight through, just fast decisions and real momentum.
- Own the product customers see first. Haply Hub is the front door to everything we build, and you'll be the one shaping it.
- Build with a stack you'd pick yourself, on hardware that's actually on your desk, not behind a slide deck.
- A modern downtown Montreal office, great coffee, and a team that cares about craft as much as you do!
