In this role, you can expect to design interfaces for AI interactions, including conversational workflows, recommendations, and human-in-the-loop controls to improve customer outcomes.

Experience in frontend software engineering, UI architecture, modern web technologies, and software development best practices.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience building production-quality, accessible, and responsive user interfaces.
Experience improving UI performance, accessibility, reliability, and product adoption through data-driven engineering.
Knowledge of responsible AI, explainability, human-in-the-loop design, prompt safety, and AI evaluation practices.
Working knowledge of AI-powered application patterns, including model-driven workflows, conversational interfaces, recommendations, or intelligent automation.
Understanding of secure coding, privacy, observability, testing, and agile development practices.
