About us

At Applied Labs, we’re building the platform for reliable AI agents that automate complex work. We are primarily an in-person company based in New York City.

Why this could be a fit

• Trajectory: 10x growth in 4 months; strong momentum

• Ownership: High autonomy; own outcomes end to end

• Challenging problems: Build high-craft experiences that explain complex AI simply

• Team quality: Early team from Harvard, MIT, Gemini, Meta

• Speed and taste: Move fast without lowering the bar

What you’ll do

• Own the Applied Labs web and brand surfaces from concept to production, including marketing site, landing pages, launch pages, and lightweight interactive storytelling

• Design and build directly in code, translating high-fidelity design into production-quality UI with excellent typography, layout, motion, accessibility, and performance

• Create reusable components and templates that raise consistency and speed across the website and brand experiences

• Build and maintain a high-quality pipeline for on-brand design assets, including images, short-form video, motion graphics, and illustrations

• Use modern AI tools to accelerate output and iteration, including coding agents and generative image and video models, while maintaining a strong human taste and QA bar

• Partner closely with founders in NYC to set the quality bar for how Applied Labs looks, feels, and communicates, and to execute quickly on new narratives, experiments, and launches

• Establish the standard for future hires through your documentation, component patterns, asset specs, and creative workflow

You might thrive in this role if you

• Have shipped polished, customer-facing web experiences and can point to real work in production

• Are fluent in both design and frontend implementation, and you prefer eliminating handoffs by owning the whole loop

• Care deeply about craft details, including typography, spacing, responsiveness, motion, and interaction feel

• Can prototype quickly, validate with real feedback, and iterate without losing coherence or quality

• Use AI tools effectively to speed up coding and creative production, and you can critique and refine outputs rather than accepting them as-is

• Are product-minded and narrative-driven, and you ask what the user needs to understand, feel, and do next

• Prefer in-person collaboration and fast decision cycles

Bonus points

• Experience building or extending a design system in code

• Comfort with animation and micro-interactions, including motion guidelines and implementation

• Strong writing and editorial taste for landing page messaging and information architecture

• Experience producing brand assets using generative image and video workflows while keeping results consistent and on-brand

Compensation & benefits

• Competitive salary + significant equity

• Flexible (Unlimited) Paid Time Off

• Medical, Dental, and Vision benefits for you and your family

• Fancy lunches, plus snacks, coffee, or boba

• Relocation support to NYC if needed
