## About the role

We are looking for a product engineer to turn new model capabilities into thoughtfully designed software. The work is as much a UX problem as a technical one. You will help decide how people interact with AI, prototype unfamiliar ideas, and build the systems that make the experience responsive and reliable.

## What they're looking for

- - A track record of shipping thoughtfully designed software and taking responsibility for how it works in practice
- - Strong TypeScript skills and experience building both interactive interfaces and the application logic behind them
- - Sound fundamentals in asynchronous programming, data modeling, persistence, and debugging complex applications
- - Product judgment: you can reason from a person's needs to an interaction, prototype quickly, and improve your approach after trying it
- - Attention to visual and interaction details, supported by the engineering discipline to make the experience dependable
- - Comfort collaborating with researchers and designers on open-ended problems
