 - Constantly improve high-visibility surfaces like agent chat threads, artifact editing, and message composition

 - Partner directly with design to turn visionary ideas into production implementations

 - Solve complex problems across architecture, state-management, animation, and performance-optimization

 - Collaborate with capabilities and research teams to synthesize the latest research into coherent production experiences

 - Support other product teams by designing reusable libraries and SDKs to maintain a high quality-bar across all surfaces of the product


WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

 - Strong proficiency in modern web technologies: React, TypeScript, CSS, etc.

 - Exceptional taste: relentless
