Senior Design Engineer
A fast-scaling B2B SaaS company headquartered in New York, they're building a world-class engineering team in Manhattan and Buenos Aires to solve one of the most ambitious and high-impact problems in enterprise AI.
They are on a mission to help companies understand and control their AI presence.
They just closed a $35M Series B led by Sequoia Capital to build the platform companies rely on to understand and control their AI presence—pioneering Answer Engine Optimization and marketing to superintelligence.
They have also raised a $96 million Series C at a $1B valuation (unicorn status). The round was led by Lightspeed Venture Partners, with continued participation from Sequoia Capital, Kleiner Perkins, Evantic, Saga Ventures, and South Park Commons. This brings total funding to over $155M in under 18 months.
Design Engineer
They are on a mission to help companies understand and control their AI presence. As AI-generated experiences increasingly shape how brands are discovered, trusted, and chosen, the quality of those experiences matters more than ever.
Design engineering is core to how they build. With a high bar for craft, taste, and execution, you will work between design and engineering by shipping high-quality, highly polished experiences across the product and, at times, marketing surfaces.

Craft layouts, typography, responsiveness, motion, and micro-interactions using Tailwind CSS
Occasionally contribute to the marketing site and logged-out experiences, maintaining the same bar for quality and performance
Contribute to shared UI foundations, including components, patterns, and design tokens
Work across the stack using React, Next.js, and TypeScript to deliver fast, reliable interfaces
Optimize for performance, accessibility, and maintainability without compromising on design
Raise the bar for frontend craft through code reviews, critiques, and shared standards
