## Job description

Benefits: Health & dental insurance, gym reimbursement, daily team meals, commuter benefits

We are an early stage applied AI startup building agents that automate knowledge work with code. We’re on a mission to enable one billion humans to become software creators, and we are starting with a focus on data science and analysis use cases.

Today, Julius writes and executes 1 million lines of code every 36 hours, has served over 1 million users and generated over 3 million data visualizations.

We're a small technical team with experience from Uber, Facebook and Scale AI. We're making revenue and we're backed by some of best investors like AI Grant, YCombinator, Bessemer Venture Partners and founders of Vercel, Notion, Perplexity, Palantir, Replit, Zapier, Intercom, Dropbox and researchers from OpenAI and Google DeepMind.

Building intuitive and performant user interfaces is critical to making Julius easy to use for over 1 million users. Our interface has several moving parts including tool use, multi-step reasoning, code generation, code execution, file and secrets management, and more. You will get to define and build the experiences for all of these as we scale to our future milestones.

What you'll do:

- Build products that bring AI capabilities to millions of people
- Design and implement intuitive, responsive, and performant user interfaces
- Optimize application performance and ensure cross-browser compatibility

What we're looking for:

- Experience with React, Next.js, Tailwind CSS, Python
- Have previous internships or relevant experience where you’ve shipped production level code
- Strong understanding of frontend frontend primitives: component architecture, state management, streaming UIs, and performance profiling
- Strong understanding of backend systems, in particular - relational databases, caching, background jobs, and auth.
- Examples of live projects or products you've built

## ABOUT THE INTERVIEW

- Intro call
- Short paid work trial (2-5 days). Own and ship a project in Julius

- **Mission**: “Easily analyze, visualize and transform data” – acting as a shared AI data scientist for teams

## Products & Services
- **Julius AI Platform (SaaS)**: Core product that lets users chat with their data in natural language. Generates code (SQL/Python), visualizations, forecasting models, and slide decks. Includes:
  - **Notebooks**: Multi-step, auditable analysis chains with editable code and visualizations.

- Building enterprise-ready data connectors and security controls (role-based permissions, audit trails).
- Growing user base through freemium model and targeted verticals (finance, marketing, operations).

## Why Work Here
- **Small, high-impact team**: 12 employees means direct influence on product direction and culture.
- **Cutting-edge AI work**: Daily work with latest LLMs (GPT-5.5, proprietary fine-tuned models) and real data engineering challenges.
- **Growth trajectory**: Rapid user adoption (2M+ users), strong investor backing, and expanding feature set signal a fast-paced startup environment.
- **Remote/hybrid**: Headquarters in San Francisco; presence in Philippines; likely flexible (check specific roles).
- **Open roles**: Software Engineer (Infrastructure, Product – Mid/Senior & New Grad) and Growth Intern – ideal for engineers who want to build core AI infrastructure and product.
