You'll own the vision and execution of local AI products, from roadmap to release. Half your time goes into code, the other half into alignment: defining what to build, why it matters, and how to ship it well. You'll lead a pod of engineers across the stack, ensuring that the power of on-device AI translates into products people actually want to use.
This role is for builders who care deeply about the end result: making local, private, and powerful AI accessible through thoughtfully designed products.
Responsibilities
-
Aligning stakeholders on the product roadmap by building mockups and writing product requirements documents (PRD)
-
Contributing to the product's codebase (at least 50% of your time should be spent coding)
-
Managing a cross functional team (pod) made of middleware (JS), foundation (C++), QA and documentation engineers to produce high quality deliverables
-
Regularly assessing, both qualitatively and quantitatively, our position in the market with regards to similar products or platforms
-
Leveraging the expertise of the design, where needed, to ensure a high quality user/developer experience
-
Leveraging the expertise of technical architects to ensure robust architectural choices and code quality
-
Ensuring stable releases by following precise internal release processes
Job requirements
-
Has strong software development skills (preferably in Javascript/Typescript and/or C++)
-
He has extensive experience with React Native / Expo and cross platform development
-
Has a good understanding of how LLMs, transformer architecture and other AI building blocks work
-
Has built or has been a key technical contributor in one or more small to medium sized products (think 10k+ active users)
-
Has experience managing a small, specialized, cross functional team (pod) of 3-5 people
-
Has a genuine passion for building good products that improve people's lives
-
Knows how to use AI tools such as Cursor or Claude Code to write good code and iterate quickly.
Bonus points if:
-
You have experience with AWS, containerization platforms, orchestration, and automated testing suites (Maestro, Appium)
-
You have direct experience in building AI powered products
-
You understand the difficulties, nuances and importance of p2p technology
-
You share a cool project you built that aligns strongly with our vision for local AI (it's totally fine if you build it after reading this!)
