Job description

About Limitless

At Limitless, our vision is to free the human mind from its biological limitations. We are starting with memory. 90% of memories are forgotten after just a week. Not only that, but our memory gets worse as we get older. If there is a hearing aid for hearing and glasses for vision then why isn’t there the equivalent for memory? That question is why we started the company. We build software and hardware to capture what you see, say, and hear and make it useful.

The products we have today are just the first step toward our audacious vision.

We have raised over $33m from top-tier investors including Sam Altman, First Round Capital, Andreessen Horowitz, and NEA to help make that vision a reality.

Why Limitless

The work you’ll do will have tremendous impact on not just our company, but on society as a whole. We believe the best version of the future is one in which we augment - not replace - human intelligence with artificial intelligence. This is the key to unlocking humanity’s full potential, and you will play a critical role in helping us get there. Join us.

Examples of projects you'll work on

• With the pendant capturing more of your day, we'll need your help to better organize, visualize, identify insights, and craft proactive experiences.

• Evolve our marketing website to better highlight use cases, design and build new web experiences from scratch, and iterate on our brand aesthetic.

• Continually identify opportunities to refine the product design of our web and desktop app from onboarding and calendar integration to AI search flows.

Requirements

• Experience as a software engineer and/or product designer, with recent experience working on products using LLMs a plus.

• A high level of agency, autonomy, and ownership. You'll define what's important to work on.

• A portfolio of product design and products featuring excellent visual, UI and interaction design for products, including websites, shipped in a fast-paced environment.

• Significant experience with front-end engineering (Next, React, Tailwind)

• Significant experience with product design (Figma, layout, interactions).

• Significant experience with animation frameworks and motion design.

• Significant experience with all the ins and outs of shipping performant mobile responsive web products.

• Nice to have: Experience with advanced frontend frameworks and technologies like ThreeJS/R3F, WebGL and shaders.

What you'll do

• A bit of everything. You'll be the second person on the design team at Limitless, and will have your hand in product design, brand, and front-end development.

• Work closely with our cofounder to design and implement elegant end-to-end solutions by understanding customer needs along with technical opportunities and constraints with AI.

• Continually identify opportunities to elevate our production quality bar across the company.

• Contribute to company vision and product strategy, often by showing what's possible.

What cultural values you need to embody

• Decisive: Bias for action and learning.

• Resourceful: Prioritize well in order to maximize impact with the least effort.

• Craft: Good judgement & consideration when deciding something is done enough.

• Candor: Give candid feedback, receive it well, and speak up if you disagree.

• ️Communication: Be transparent, create clarity out of ambiguity, and do it with zest.

• Collaboration: Help each other out, have empathy, and listen well.

Benefits

• Health insurance: best-in-class healthcare for employees and dependents. Includes vision and dental.

• Flexible vacation: we want you to take the time you need to rest and relax.

• Employee-friendly equity terms: we offer an extended exercise window and early exercise for any options offered.

• Sell equity along the way: Unlike most startups, we don’t believe in holding you captive with golden handcuffs. When there are opportunities for you to sell a portion of your vested stock, we offer them.

• Remote first: we have team members all over the U.S. and everyone is treated equally regardless of location.

• 401(k) plan: for US employees we offer a 401(k) plan with company matching.

• Office reimbursement: prefer working from an office? We provide a WeWork membership or reimbursement.

• Parental leave: we offer all parents 12 weeks of paid time off to spend time with their new family.

• Quarterly retreats: we have offsites quarterly to bring everyone together. Past retreats include Seattle, Breckenridge, Calistoga & Mexico.

• Final week of the year off: Enjoy the final week of the year off while we all take time to recharge.

• Choose your gear: we equip everyone with a new top-of-the-line laptop with all the upgrades.
