Job Description

About Us

Imbue is a radically different AI company. We believe that data should belong to you, humans should come before technology, and everyone deserves to own a personal team of AI agents. We believe in a future of open agents that you can modify to do exactly what you want.

We’re building a suite of tools to make tech serve humans, and making it open source.

Some first projects include:

Sculptor: An interface for programmers to run coding agents in parallel and stay in flow
mngr: A command-line tool for managing agents
Vet: A standalone tool that catches AI coding mistakes and reviews full PRs
Offload: A tool that automatically distributes your tests to run in isolated sandboxes
Latchkey: A command-line tool to integrate local agents with third-party APIs
Darwinian Evolver: A near-universal optimizer for code and agents

And we’re just getting started. If you’re excited about building a future with open agents, say hi!

We're supported by investors like Nvidia, Simon Last (co-founder of Notion), and Eric Schmidt (former CEO of Google), with $200M raised at over $1B valuation.

As such, we seek to build in a human-centered way to reimagine our relationship with technology.

In this role, you’ll own the product user experience end-to-end, contributing to product strategy, running design sprints, and crafting a vision to ensure simple and elegant designs.
