San Francisco CA United States Letta Cloud Full time
Our background

The founding team comes from the same research lab and PhD advisors at Berkeley that produced Spark (→ Databricks) and Ray (→ Anyscale). We have deep expertise in both AI and systems, are currently hiring a founding team of exceptional engineers to join us in building the next generation of LLM agent technology.

Your role

Our goal as a company is to empower developers to build state-of-the-art LLM agents to power their own applications. As a Product Engineer , you will:

  • Lead development of a web platform for developers that are designing, debugging, and deploying LLM agents.

  • Play a crucial role in building a developer experience around technology that allows agent builders to observe and control agent behavior at a much deeper level, while also working with a design team and LLM researchers.

  • You should have a fascination with LLM technology, as this role will require interacting closely with LLMs and understanding how to provide the human interfaces that allow developers to push LLMs to their limits.

Your skillset

You’re an ideal candidate for this position if:

  • You have a deep familiarity with the modern web stack

    • React is your bread and butter - you’ve been writing React professionally for 3+ years

    • Keywords: React, Typescript, Tailwind, Nx, TanStack, Radix UI, Zod, Zustand

  • You know how to work with designers

    • You’ll be working closely with our design team to build the UI/UX

    • Keyword: Figma

  • You are fluent in Python and know your way around a REST API server

    • You’ll also be working closely with the LLM research team to develop new APIs and schemas for agents

    • Keywords: Python, FastAPI

  • You’ve built an LLM chatbot frontend before

    • OpenAI playground, but for Ollama? You could mock that up in a day or two

    • Token streaming over POST SSE? No problem

  • You are fascinated by LLM technology

    • Even if you don’t have a formal background in LLMs, you love keeping up to date with the latest in LLM technology (your laptop is loaded with llama.cpp and 1TB of model weights)

    • You love learning about how agents and LLMs work under the hood

  • You love beautiful things (you’ve made them before, and can show us)

    • And by “things” we mean web apps

    • And by “beautiful”, we mean it looks like something on @shadcn’s timeline

    • Portfolio projects (either OSS or live websites) that we can look at are a major plus
