About the job
A seed-stage startup creating an AI assistant for getting work done, packaged as a web browser, seeks product engineers who run every feature as if it were their own small business. The founders want builders fluent in AI who notice what users struggle with, repair it personally and stand behind what they launch.
What you’ll own
A whole feature or smaller product line, for instance the browser itself, the credential vault or the phone app, with responsibility for product calls, construction, shipping and rollout
Regular talks with users and members of the community, converting what you hear into improvements
Hunting for gaps and defects unprompted, then building the remedy, recording a quick demo and showing the team
Clean interface work that feels native and is assembled from components, held to a demanding standard of polish
Public announcements of what you release through your own social accounts, with proper credit for your work
What you bring
At least a year building zero-to-one product at a venture-backed startup, or founding something with real traction
Personally released user-facing features end to end, with strong frontend craft in React and TypeScript or native Apple platforms
Experience with AI agent workflows and sharp product judgment
A computer science or other STEM degree
Roughly one to eight years as a product or full-stack engineer
On-site in the San Francisco Bay Area. Visa transfers considered.
