About the role:
You.com is an innovative AI productivity tool designed to help you get more done.
The platform was founded by prominent AI researchers Richard Socher, former Chief Scientist at Salesforce and a TIME100 AI honoree for 2023, and Bryan McCann, specializing in deep learning and natural language processing.
Recognized as one of Time’s “Best Inventions” of 2022 and listed among Fortune’s 50 AI Innovators in 2023, you.com pioneered the first search engine to integrate a consumer-facing LLM with direct internet access, providing accurate, verifiable, and up-to-date responses.
We are hiring a world-class team of software engineers to architect, implement, and deploy a consumer-facing product that harnesses AI to surface trusted information for more confident user decisions.
In these nascent stages, you must be comfortable experimenting rapidly: working with the founding team to implement new, experimental interfaces and ultimately deploy the best solution in regular, early product releases.
While you can execute implementation and experimentation independently, you thrive in collaborative environments. You can integrate active user feedback into your vision for the product and work with designers and engineers to bring your vision to You.com.

You can quickly iterate with product and design teams as part of a tight user-validated feedback loop
You’re passionate about details; you strive for pixel-perfect front-end code and lightning-fast load times
You understand the importance of reliable monitoring, deployment strategies, and a highly scalable and robust cloud infrastructure
You have experience with best practices and patterns that allow the most skilled engineering teams to communicate effectively and deliver quickly and regularly
You want to write high-quality code and build a world-class engineering team
You are electrified by the possibilities and challenges of rapidly shipping and iterating on user-facing code and building a consumer application with high public visibility
You have a strong portfolio, whether it is a collection of professional, academic, or personal projects taking the form of production code, published papers, or open-source contributions
Culturally:
You are a kind, friendly person and strive to create a kind, inclusive workplace filled with smiles and laughter
You take and give feedback graciously as part of growing individually and as a team
You will take joy in collaborative brainstorming and proposing novel extensions
You want to play an active role throughout the process of delivering your work to users
You are always willing to learn what you do not know
You are dependable and take pride in your work
You enjoy jumping in to help others with whatever part of the product they are building
You want to be part of defining and building a team around a vision and technology that has a direct path to improving the daily lives of people worldwide.
