Role Posting Log in to save

Software Engineer - Generative UI, Input Experience will join a newly formed team to invent and develop interfaces composed on demand rather than pre-designed. You will partner with design and AI teams to establish technical direction, shape team culture, and define engineering standards for generative systems. Your daily work involves balancing high-level design exploration with rigorous engineering to productize execution runtimes, harden security boundaries, and drive generation quality through prompt iteration and automated evaluation. You will build UI frameworks, manage output validation, and develop cross-platform features. The role requires expert-level Swift and SwiftUI skills, along with experience in generative models, language runtimes, DSL design, and sandboxing untrusted code. This position addresses the technical challenge of creating high-quality, responsive interfaces that are generated at runtime to meet specific user needs while maintaining polished craft.
