UX Engineer, HCI

Job Description

About [REDACTED]

There are over 5 billion users using basic applications today such email, notes, tasks that are not AI-native. Our mission is to build a proactive smart assistant for everyday users to bring intelligence to conversations, errands, organising and workflows, with minimal prompting.

Our product focuses on achieving high reliability for long-running workflows, persistent context, and real-world task completion. The system must handle multi-step reasoning, interact with external tools, and remain reliable despite non-deterministic model behavior. Our objective is to help users complete tasks daily enjoyable with over ~90%* reduced time.

Role

You will sit at the intersection of design and engineering, building the AI interfaces that users actually interact with. This is not a UI maintenance role. You will prototype, test, and ship new interaction patterns for AI-driven experiences where established conventions do not yet exist.

This role is focused on HCI - building interfaces that make AI behavior understandable, controllable, and useful in real workflows.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Build and prototype AI-native product interfaces across web and mobile.
  • Create functional prototypes of new HCI interaction models, including streaming responses, multi-step task flows, real-time feedback loops, and system state visibility.
  • Translate design concepts into working code with high attention to usability, responsiveness, and motion.
  • Experiment with UI patterns that show progress, uncertainty, confidence, failure, and recovery clearly to users.
  • Build interfaces that let users supervise, correct, and redirect AI behavior without micromanaging the system.
  • Work closely with product, design, and ML teams to validate interaction ideas quickly.
  • Contribute to frontend architecture and reusable UI components for AI product surfaces.
  • Identify and fix usability, performance, and state management issues in AI-driven interfaces.

What You Will Need

  • Strong frontend engineering skills in React, TypeScript, or equivalent.
  • Experience building interaction-heavy or experimental interfaces.
  • Strong product and UX instincts - you can tell when something is unclear or broken from a user's perspective.
  • Ability to prototype rapidly in ambiguous environments with incomplete specs.
  • Understanding of animation, responsiveness, frontend architecture, and UI performance.
  • Interest in HCI interfaces and how to design for trust, control, transparency, and recovery.
  • Comfort working at the boundary of design and engineering without clear handoffs.
  • Ability to move fast while keeping the user experience clear and usable.
