About the role

Teams can now prompt AI for slide content, but the output is usually brittle, static, and hard to edit.
The wedge is agent-assisted structured deck generation for repeatable business and technical presentations, using a deck compiler, browser editor, and validation and repair rules to eliminate hand-tuned layout work.
What to Know Upfront This is a 12-week, full-time, on-site residency in Mountain View, California.

Build the end-to-end hosted authoring app: AI-assisted deck planning, the deck compiler, the browser editor state model, the validation and repair pipeline, and the presenter/publish flow behind a hosted API.
Partner with AI Fund internal teams and 2 to 3 external deck-heavy teams to define pilot scope, success metrics (time-to-first-draft, percent of slides accepted after light edits, layout QA pass rate, publish/share completion), data path, and the MVP cut line.
Design the ladder from prompt-assisted drafting to agent-driven deck creation through the CLI or plugin, keeping every generated deck editable, inspectable, and reviewable rather than a static artifact.
Work with AI Fund's build team on product wedge, technical risk, and the path from pilot to a broader deck-authoring platform.
Demonstrated experience building GenAI products with retrieval, tool use, guardrails, and production feedback loops, including AI-assisted authoring or generation workflows.

A prompt and structured-brief intake flow that produces a deck outline and spec.
A deck compiler that turns the spec into multi-slide output with data-bound chart, math, and AI-generated image primitives.
A browser editor for reviewing and editing generated slides, backed by validation and repair checks for layout, text, connectors, charts, math, and images.
Product judgment for human-in-the-loop automation where the right answer is usually to remove busywork rather than replace the human outright.
Ability to iterate with early users and translate ambiguous feedback into working product decisions.
US work authorization.
Experience with presentation tools, Figma or design tooling, or visual layout engines.
Background in data visualization, chart rendering, or image generation pipelines.

$10,000/month for 12 weeks ($30,000 total).
This is a contract role during the residency.
