Job description

This role is for an experienced frontend engineer who will own big parts of a web app used to deploy and manage AI models. Day to day it means building fast, accessible interfaces in React and TypeScript, working closely with designers and backend engineers, and shaping shared components and standards. A strong candidate has built polished production apps for years, cares about speed, and can guide other engineers.

How it fits the AI era

AI tools can speed up routine interface code, component drafts, and tests, so the value shifts toward judgment about design, performance, and clear workflows. The product itself is about running AI models, so the screens must make complex things like deployments and model usage easy to understand. Product sense, user empathy, and agreeing on APIs with backend teams stay human work.

How it builds AI experience

Working here means building interfaces for people who run AI models in production, so there is steady exposure to how inference, model APIs, and training are set up and monitored. Someone preparing for this could deploy a small open source model on any platform and sketch a dashboard for its status and usage. Practice with real time data views would also line up with the product.

Worth showing

• Production React and TypeScript apps
• Fast, responsive UI performance
• Reusable component library work
• API design with backend teams
• Developer tool or ML product sense
