## About the role

Normal CLI is how semiconductor engineers do AI-assisted verification work. It is a large interactive terminal application, built in Python and Textual, that design verification engineers keep open all day, usually in environments we do not control: remote workstations inside chip companies, SSH sessions, tmux, Windows and WSL. Our users are accustomed to terminal products, and for many of them this is the first and only surface of Normal they will use. We expect that to remain true.

## What they're looking for

- Textual, Rich, prompt-toolkit, curses, Bubble Tea, Ratatui, Ink, or another terminal UI framework
- PTYs, terminal emulation, multiplexers, or remote shell and host abstractions
- Designing human-in-the-loop experiences for coding agents, AI tools, or other long-running automated systems
- Cross-platform packaging, self-update systems, internationalization, IME support, or visual regression testing
- Electron or another desktop framework, particularly embedding a CLI, TUI, or agent runtime
- Semiconductors, EDA, or hardware engineering workflows
