We encourage anyone to apply - while this is a senior position we think talent, passion and your unique perspective can outweigh years of experience.

  • Research and deploy real-world applications of cutting-edge AI models
  • Design and implement impactful solutions across internal tools and customer-facing products

What drives you
  • Curiosity, creativity, and a drive to rapidly learn and adapt
  • Building full-stack apps that bring AI to life
  • Staying on top of the latest in AI and LLM prompting techniques
  • Pushing the boundaries of what's possible with AI agents
  • Working in fast-moving, collaborative teams
What's in your toolbox
  • Strong understanding of ML & AI best practices
  • Proficiency in Python and Typescript
  • Experience working with LLM APIs (e.g. OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, etc.)
  • Knowledge of LLM frameworks like Vercel AI SDK
  • Experience building with frameworks like Next.js and working with REST APIs
  • Familiarity with "computer-use" models (e.g., Operator, Computer Use, Browser Use)
  • Experience using AI tools effectively (e.g. Cursor, Windsurf, lovable, etc.)
What we are looking for
  • Ability to rapidly prototype and iterate on ideas
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills
  • Comfortable navigating ambiguity and wearing multiple hats
  • Passion for creating intuitive, user-friendly experiences
  • A proactive mindset and a bias toward action
  • Experience in startups or other dynamic, high-growth settingsExperience in startups or other dynamic, high-growth settings
  • 3-6+ years of experience working as an IC collaborative teams
