We’re building prod, not god. TypeSafe is an AI lab pushing frontier model intelligence in a new direction, starting with System One Models. We combine the reasoning of LLMs with the reliability of code, for truly trustworthy AI.

While others chase benchmarks, we’re rebuilding the LLM stack from first principles to make models smarter and also dependable enough to run in production. We’re a small, fast team backed by an $870M Series A led by a16z. Made in SF, with love. Come join the frontier.

ABOUT THE ROLE

We're looking for scrappy engineers who specialize in frontend and fullstack. You seek joy in beautiful visualization and engaging user interactions - whether it be mobile, webUI or virtual reality. You love fast iteration, you have taste, you don’t stop until it meets your bar.

  • Turn raw model outputs and data into clear, inspectable UIs — owning a domain end-to-end, with craft and judgment over simple optimization
  • Own product features end-to-end — from design and prototype to production — with craft and judgment
  • Build polished, reliable user interfaces that are enterprise-scale
  • Partner closely with product, design, and customers to translate real-world needs into model, system, and product improvements
  • Instrument, measure, and improve product quality, reliability, and performance

WE ARE LOOKING FOR PEOPLE WHO

  • Are generalists with solid full-stack engineering fundamentals, strong coding ability, and product intuition
  • Maintain high attention to detail and a strong bar for quality and speed
  • Enjoy thinking beyond the code to how systems are used in the real world
