Responsible for the architecture, OS integration, performance, and release pipeline of 's native macOS client app.

is most powerful when it's ambient — always there, aware of what you're working on, one keystroke away. The native macOS app is how that happens. We're looking for a Desktop Engineer to own 's macOS client: a fast, deeply-integrated, always-on app that lives in your menu bar, understands the context around you, and acts the moment you need it.
You'll own the native client end to end — architecture, OS integration, performance, and the release pipeline — and set the craft bar for what a desktop experience feels like. The bar is someone who has shipped a real Mac app that people loved to use, and sweats the details that make native software feel effortless.
Build and own 's native macOS app in Swift, SwiftUI, and AppKit — architecture, features, and polish.
Go deep on the OS: menu-bar and background agents, global shortcuts, notifications, EventKit, and the Accessibility APIs that let understand and act across other apps.
Make an always-on client that's genuinely fast and light — low memory, low battery, no jank.
Own the release pipeline: code signing, notarization, sandboxing/entitlements, crash reporting, and seamless auto-update.
Handle sensitive user data on-device with the security and privacy it deserves, in partnership with our security work.
Work closely with the backend and AI teams to bring 's agent to the desktop natively.
Set the craft and performance bar for the desktop experience — and lay the groundwork for future platforms.

It doesn't wait to be prompted. It observes, learns, and acts.
