Emergent builds autonomous coding agents that replace traditional software development by generating, testing, and deploying production applications directly from plain-language intent. Our systems run in production at global scale and are used to build millions of real applications.
Since our public launch, we've crossed $100M in ARR and grown to over 10M users across 190+ countries. We're backed by Khosla Ventures, SoftBank, Google, Lightspeed, Prosus, Together, and Y Combinator.
We're solving the hard part of AI-driven software creation: correctness, reliability, security, and scale in real production systems. The team is built by repeat founders, Olympiad medalists, IIT & IIM alumni, and leaders from Google, Amazon, and Dropbox.
We're hiring builders who want ownership, speed, and impact at global scale.
What You'll Do:
- Own end-to-end product design for key parts of the Emergent platform
- Turn complex workflows into clear, intuitive experiences
- Work closely with engineers and product to ship fast, high-quality features
- Design flows, interactions, and UI with strong attention to detail
- Contribute to product thinking and not just execution
- Help evolve design patterns and systems as the product scales
What We're Looking For:
- 4+ years of experience designing and shipping digital products
- Strong interaction and visual design fundamentals
- Comfortable working on technical or complex products (you don't need to code, but you should enjoy collaborating closely with engineers)
- Ability to operate in ambiguity and make good decisions with incomplete information
- Clear communication and strong product intuition
- High ownership mindset, you care deeply about what ships
Nice to Have:
- Some hands-on experience with code, or a genuine interest in experimenting with it
- Experience designing AI-powered products or systems
- Familiarity with design systems and scaling patterns
Why Join Us:
- Work on a product where design directly shapes how powerful the platform feels
- Small, tight-knit team with real ownership and accountability
- Fast feedback loops and real users at global scale
- A front-row seat to how AI-native products are being built
Benefits and Perks:
- 401(k)
- Health, Dental, and Vision Insurance
- Unlimited Paid Time Off: Take the time you need to recharge and come back refreshed
- Flexible Working Hours: Work arrangements that fit your life and commitments
Let's build the future of software together.

What We Do
Backed by Lightspeed, Y Combinator, Together Fund, and Prosus, Emergent is reimagining how software gets built. Our vision is to democratize development, enabling anyone with an idea to become a creator and making software accessible to a billion people worldwide. Our autonomous coding agents turn plain-language ideas into fully functional applications, tested, version-controlled, and deployable in minutes. What once took weeks now happens with a single click. Enterprises use Emergent to write, maintain, and test millions of lines of code autonomously, cutting development cycles from months to days. Headquartered in San Francisco, we’re led by repeat entrepreneurs with a proven track record of building successful startups, joined by a world-class team of Olympiad medalists, IIT & IIM alumni, and veterans from Google, Amazon, and Dropbox. Together, we’re building at the frontier of AI and systems engineering—shipping daily and setting new standards for AI-driven development. In just 90 days, we scaled to $15M ARR, making us one of the fastest-growing AI startups in the world, with users across 180+ countries. Join us in shaping the future of software development.
