About the role
- You'll work alongside another senior UI engineer, with real ownership over specific surfaces and problems rather than sole responsibility for the whole frontend.
- Your core craft is React and TypeScript: component architecture, state management, performance, and the judgment to turn complex systems into interfaces people trust.
- You'll help ensure the engineering quality of what ends up in production.
Responsibilities
- Our designers aren't just handing off mockups - several of them now build UI directly, using coding agents to write real production code.
- helping them realize their design intent, reviewing and hardening what they ship, and bringing software engineering discipline - architecture, performance, testing, maintainability - to the frontend as it grows.
- You won't own visual design; that's their job.
- Design consistent interaction patterns across web and CLI
- Partner directly with designers as they build UI using coding agents - pairing, reviewing, and unblocking them
- Help designers translate design intent into robust, production-ready code rather than one-off prototypes
- Strong eye for interaction design and interface quality (we have designers for visual design - but you should have good taste)
- Strong API design instincts
- Experience building developer tools or control-plane software
- Experience building CLIs
Requirements
- Experience shipping SaaS products used by technical teams
- Ability to translate complex backend systems into usable interfaces
- Experience with design systems or component libraries
- Experience designing workflow builders or configuration-heavy interfaces
- Experience with real-time systems or streaming UIs
- Familiarity with LLM-powered products or agent systems
- Deeper distributed-systems or Kubernetes experience
Skills
- Help shape the architecture and implementation of our React + TypeScript web application, alongside our other senior UI engineer
- Build high-performance, stateful interfaces for managing agents
- Work within a Kubernetes-native, cloud-based distributed system
- Explore agents as a new user interface modality
- Design structured, interactive agent workflows beyond simple chat
- Combine UI controls with agent reasoning
Company info
- We are building the control plane for AI agents in teams and companies.
