About the role
- Assist in creating dynamic, logic-driven prototypes using real data, live APIs, and production-like architecture to solve design problems and validate novel interactions.
- Collaborate on prototyping with generative AI APIs, live LLMs, and spatial computing frameworks to evaluate latency, orchestration, and behavioral interactions.
- Leverage agentic engineering workflows to automate routine tasks, accelerate development velocity, and explore new coding paradigms.
- Write clean code using modern frameworks (e.g., React, Next.js, TypeScript) to help build component libraries, accessible experiences, or internal tools.
- Collaborate daily with a team of designers, technologists, and creative team members, acting as a bridge between design intent and technical execution.
Requirements
- Demonstrated ability to rapidly develop proof-of-concept demos and craft high-fidelity interactive prototypes following a project timeline.
- Familiarity with or eagerness to adopt agentic engineering tooling and AI-assisted development environments (e.g., Cursor, Codex, Claude Code).
- Familiarity with modern web and application frameworks (e.g., React, Next.js, TypeScript) and advanced transitions/animations.
- Experience or strong interest in integrating Generative AI APIs, LLMs, or real-time data streams into functional prototypes.
- Familiarity with logic-driven prototyping tools like ProtoPie, Unity, or custom code.
- Clear communication and a low-ego, high-agency collaboration mindset.
