We're backed by Khosla Ventures and Y Combinator growing quickly and looking for exceptional engineers who want to work at the edge of AI technology with a fast technical team and are excited by Open Source // TypeScript.

About the role
As a Principal TypeScript Engineer you'll architect and ship the core features that power our Agent Platform. You'll have significant ownership over how thousands of developers build AI agents from API design to SDK ergonomics to the abstractions that make agentic systems easy to build.
 

This is a high-leverage role where you'll:

• Own platform features end-to-end: architect build and maintain critical systems that our customers depend on
• Shape the developer experience: design APIs SDKs and tools that developers love to use
• Build at the frontier and in public: work on cutting-edge agentic systems and see your work used in production at leading AI companies -- all while contributing to open source.
• Influence product direction: your technical and product insights will directly shape our roadmap
• Work directly with customers: understand how teams build AI agents and design elegant solutions for their needs
   

What we're looking for

• Strong TypeScript expertise: 4+ years building full-stack products with TypeScript with deep understanding of end-to-end web fundamentals
• System design skills: you can architect APIs and systems that are elegant scalable and developer-friendly
• Product thinking: you care about the end-user experience and think through how people will actually use what you build
• Full-stack fluency: comfortable working across the stack from APIs to SDKs to UIs
• High ownership: you want to own problems deeply not just write code
   

Bonus points for

• Experience building with AI (prompts evals RAG agentic workflows etc.)
• Background in developer tools or B2B SaaS products
• Open source contributions or public projects that demonstrate your craft
• UX or design sensibility
   

Our craft-driven culture
We expect every engineer to have strong product intuition and to think through the complete user experience. If you love building for other developers and are excited about building end-to-end agentic systems this role is a great fit.
 

Why join us

• High impact: shape the platform that powers AI agents for leading companies
• Technical depth: work on complex challenging problems at the frontier of AI
• Ownership: we expect you to drive product and technical decisions end-to-end
• Learning: get deep on how AI Agents work and what it takes to ship them in production
