About the role
We need a senior engineer to join the small group that works directly with our CEO, Dmytro Klochko. What you build goes out to tens of millions of people, and it goes out in weeks.
What they're looking for
- You've built and shipped consumer products that reached real users
- A track record of driving complex features end to end, not just incremental improvements and refactors
- Previous founding or early startup experience
- You love coding and agentic engineering to move faster and you use all tools available to get the job done
- Design intuition and taste. You can tell when something feels wrong before anyone tells you
- You think from first principles, not from how it's usually done
More about this role
In 2017, no one knew what AI was supposed to be. We built the world's first consumer AI app. Two million people showed up in two months. Today it's over 40 million, and the thing they keep telling us hasn't changed: it helped. It made their life better, steadier, a little less alone.
Most AI is built for tasks, not for people. It gives you answers, but it doesn't care what you do with them. AI doesn't just need intelligence. It needs intention. Because the real question isn't just what AI can do. It's what AI is for.
When the world's leading researchers wanted to understand whether AI could actually change someone's life, they studied Replika, because there was nothing else to study. What they found at Stanford, at Harvard, across years of research, was that Replika doesn't replace human connection. It deepens it. People become more social, more confident, more themselves. Not in theory. In their actual lives.
Every major AI company talks about their mission for humanity. None of them has ever clearly said what they're trying to do for a single person. We will. We want to help you flourish in real life. Not become a better version of yourself, just more yourself. Strong...
