• Define how users interact with agents across our surfaces.
• Build shared libraries, component systems, and internal tooling that make the rest of the team more productive.
• Work closely with the team on product direction, understand how customers use what you build, and let that shape what you build next.

• You've built and shipped real software, whether personal projects, open source, or at a company.
• You're at your best when you own a problem end-to-end, comfortable with ambiguity and energized by turning vague asks into clean solutions.
• Good visual and interaction judgment, even if you're not a designer by title.
• Willingness to move fast and grow quickly in a rapidly changing environment.
• Strong communicator who can work closely with teammates and customers.
