Job description

About Snorkel

At Snorkel, we believe meaningful AI doesn’t start with the model, it starts with the data.

We’re on a mission to help enterprises transform expert knowledge into specialized AI at scale. The AI landscape has gone through incredible changes since 2015, when Snorkel started as a research project in the Stanford AI Lab, to the generative AI breakthroughs of today. But one thing has remained constant: the data you use to build AI is the key to achieving differentiation, high performance, and production-ready systems. We work with some of the world’s largest organizations to empower scientists, engineers, financial experts, product creators, journalists, and more to build custom AI with their data faster than ever before. Excited to help us redefine how AI is built? Apply to be the newest Snorkeler!

About the Role

We’re looking for talented and versatile Product Engineers to join our team. In this role, you’ll build end-to-end products — from front-end interfaces through the APIs and services that power them — that make sophisticated workflows simple for our users. You’ll work closely with product, design, and engineering teams to translate complex requirements into elegant, high-quality experiences, moving fluidly across the stack to get the job done.

We are looking for talented Engineers who bring strong technical depth in React and TypeScript (and are comfortable working further down the stack when needed), a sharp product sense, and a passion for building software that makes sophisticated workflows feel intuitive.

What You’ll Do

• Build, ship, and maintain high-quality product features with full ownership from design through production, working across the front end and, as needed, the services that support it
• Enable operations teams to move fast by building the right abstractions and tools that provide safe use of agent workflows
• Collaborate with designers, product managers, and engineers to define and implement solutions that push the product forward
• Contribute to architecture decisions across the stack — advocating for scalability, maintainability, and clean code principles
• Drive best practices for accessibility, responsiveness, and cross-browser compatibility within your team
• Design and build APIs and services where a feature calls for it, ensuring a clean contract between front end and back end
• Participate in and contribute to code reviews, raising the quality bar across the codebase
• Proactively identify technical challenges and propose solutions to improve the product engineering ecosystem
• Troubleshoot and resolve performance and production issues across the stack
• Work a hybrid schedule with at least three days per week in San Francisco, CA office or in our New York City office.

What We’re Looking For

We are hiring for Product Engineers at several levels, but the core experience is below:

• 4+ years of professional experience in software engineering, with strong depth in React and TypeScript and solid full-stack or front-end fundamentals
• Solid understanding of HTML5, CSS3, and modern CSS frameworks (e.g., Tailwind)
• Experience with state management libraries (e.g., Redux, React Context API)
• Comfort designing and consuming RESTful APIs, and enough back-end fluency (Node.js, Python, or similar) to build or extend a service when a feature requires it
• Experience with responsive design, adaptive design, and accessibility standards (WCAG)
• Proven track record delivering high-quality, scalable, and maintainable code in a product environment
• Strong communication skills — able to articulate technical decisions clearly to cross-functional partners
• Ability to prototype and iterate quickly on sophisticated user workflows
• Comfortable working independently and making scoped technical decisions
• Experience collaborating in an agile, cross-functional team environment

Nice to Have

• Experience with design systems and building reusable component libraries
• Familiarity with server-side rendering frameworks (e.g., Next.js)
• Experience with performance optimization for web applications
• Prior work in developer tools or data-heavy product environments
• Experience owning a feature across the full stack, from database or service layer through UI

Why This Role

You’ll have meaningful ownership over a product used by technical and enterprise teams solving real, high-stakes problems. This isn’t a feature-factory role — you’ll be working on interfaces and the systems behind them to make genuinely complex workflows feel simple, with a team that cares deeply about craft.

Snorkel AI is proud to be an Equal Employment Opportunity employer and is committed to building a team that represents a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, and skills. Snorkel AI embraces diversity and provides equal employment opportunities to all employees and applicants for employment.

Actual compensation will be determined based on factors including skills, qualifications, experience, and geographic location.
