AI Engineer
Durable is seeking an AI Engineer to build customer-facing features and scale AI infrastructure. This role requires fluency in TypeScript and React, strong backend skills for end-to-end feature ownership, and experience with AI applications. The ideal candidate will craft fast, polished, and reliable software, contributing to both full-stack development with applied AI experience or frontend development with a focus on design systems and user experience.
This role sits at the intersection of AI engineering and application development. You’ll build customer-facing features from scratch, while also helping us integrate and scale the AI infrastructure that power them. You're deeply fluent in TypeScript and React, strong enough on the backend to own a feature end-to-end, and have meaningful experience building AI applications. You craft fast, polished, reliable software and you're drawn to problems that are genuinely unsolved.
We're looking for full stack engineers and those who lean more towards frontend.
Full stack. You understand applied AI well past the API layer: building systems that stay reliable when the model is unpredictable, writing evals that surface real signal, designing agentic workflows that hold up under production conditions. You've shipped RAG, tool calling, memory, or multi-agent patterns to real users and you know where each one breaks down.
Frontend. You notice things other engineers don't. The easing curve that's slightly off. The transition that happens too fast to register. The empty state that was clearly an afterthought. In a product where AI does most of the heavy lifting, the interface is where trust is built or broken — and you hold that line. You've built design systems from the ground up and have a point of view on motion, interaction, and what makes an AI-generated surface feel considered rather than random.
Features that are fast, reliable, and polished. Architectural and interaction decisions that make the next thing faster to build. You raise the bar for the people working alongside you.
