As a Software Engineer II, Frontend Agentic AI, you will join the team to build sophisticated interfaces that allow users to interact with autonomous AI workers. Rather than building standard dashboards, you will develop complex conversational experiences, memory management views, and real-time execution timelines for long-horizon agents. You will design novel interaction patterns for features like mid-task steering, human-in-the-loop approval flows, and worker configuration tools. The role requires expertise in React, TypeScript, and modern state management, alongside experience with WebSockets, server-sent events, and streaming rendering. You will work closely with backend and agent engineers to integrate frontends with LLM APIs while managing complex client states like optimistic updates and failure recovery. This role focuses on the technical challenge of creating polished interfaces for agents that perform actions over extended periods in real-time environments.
