Description
You'll work across the JavaScript and TypeScript layer of our local AI stack. Depending on the project, you might build user-facing applications (mobile or desktop) or contribute to the platform layer that bridges our C++ inference engines with the app ecosystem. Whether you're crafting polished product experiences or building the SDKs and bindings that other developers rely on, you'll be helping make local AI truly usable.
You’ll be contributing to QVAC, our local AI stack built to bring fast, private AI directly to user devices.
This role suits engineers who thrive in a full-stack JS environment and enjoy working close to both product and platform to turn powerful AI capabilities into real-world applications.
