Design Engineer - job 1 of 3

About Us

We believe the future is adaptable, and not one-size-fits-all. We will lead in real-time efficient adaptation that combines algorithm with innovative interface design. Our global team—based in SF and beyond—brings together top talent in AI innovation. Backed by world-class investors, we're building Adaptable Intelligence.


The Role

Adaptable intelligence depends upon reimagining feedback and interaction. Your execution on design will spark joy, and empower everyday users to shape AI to fit their needs. As a Design Engineer, you’ll bridge the gap between design vision and technical implementation; this means you enjoy both hands-on coding and thoughtful design problem-solving. You’ll collaborate closely with research and engineering teams to prototype, test, and ship innovative features, inventing new AI-powered workflows that don't yet have established patterns.


Responsibilities

  • Prototype and deliver production-quality UI: rapidly design, refine, and ship interfaces that are not only visually polished but also robust. Pay close attention to the fine details—typography, color systems, layout, animation, and motion—ensuring that every element supports speed, clarity, and usability.

  • Collaborate across disciplines: partner closely with researchers, and engineers to explore innovative interaction models. Use experimentation, prototyping, and iteration to uncover new possibilities for how people engage with our products.

  • Own end-to-end impact. You won’t simply implement specifications passed down from others. Instead, you’ll actively shape what gets built—contributing to design decisions, influencing user experience, and driving execution from concept through launch.

  • Define the future of human–AI interaction: Take on the challenge of inventing new interaction paradigms that go beyond today’s conventions. Your work will help define how people understand, collaborate with, and trust AI systems in ways that feel intuitive, natural, and empowering.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Human-Computer Interaction, or related field (or equivalent experience)

  • Experience with front-end frameworks (React, Vue, or similar) and rapid prototyping tools

  • Solid understanding of design principles, usability, and accessibility

  • Experience working across the design–engineering boundary (building prototypes, implementing design systems, or similar)

  • Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to communicate complex ideas clearly

What We Offer

  • Competitive salary + meaningful equity

  • Learning and development budget to support your growth as you adapt

  • Comprehensive medical benefits and generous PTO

  • Annual travel stipend to explore somewhere new—because building global technology means staying adaptable to new places and perspectives

  • Mission-driven team shaping the future of intelligence, where you'll enjoy high ownership and the opportunity to make a career-defining impact
