  • Integrate AI-powered features (chat, vision, voice, recommendations) via backend APIs.
  • Design UX patterns for AI interactions, including streaming responses, retries, and partial results.
  • Optimize performance, memory usage, and responsiveness for AI-heavy flows.
  • Implement analytics, logging, and feedback capture to support AI evaluation and iteration.
  • Collaborate closely with backend and ML engineers on API contracts and system behavior.
  • Ensure app stability, security, and scalability in production environments., The best products today in the world were built by small, world class teams. We are a high talent density and hands-on team. We make decisions collectively, move at rapid speed, striking a balance between shipping high quality work and learning.
