About Stack AI

Stack AI is a no-code drag-and-drop tool to quickly design, test, and deploy AI workflows that leverage Large Language Models (LLMs), such as ChatGPT, to automate any business process.

Our core value is to make it extremely easy to build arbitrarily complex AI pipelines using a visual interface that allows you to connect different data sources with different AI models.

Our customers use Stack AI to build applications such as:

  • Chatbots and Assistants: AI agents that interact with users, answer questions, and complete tasks, using your internal data and APIs.
  • Document Processing: apps to answer questions, summarize, and extract insights from any document, no matter how long.
  • Answer Questions on Databases: connect GPT-like models to databases (such as Notion, Airtable, or Postgres) and ask questions about them.
  • Content Creation: generate tags, summaries, and transfer styles or formats between documents and data sources.
About the role
Skills: CSS, Node.js, React, TypeScript

About Stack AI

  1. Vision: Democratize access to Large Language Models, so that anyone can build AI-powered applications that generate positive impact to the world.
  2. Product: A user-friendly and intuitive No-Code platform integrating best AI models (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, open source), most common data sources (OneDrive, Google Drive, Airtable, Notion) and SaaS (Zapier, HubSpot, etc.). We do the heavy-lifting for you, so you can focus on the product and business.
  3. Traction: Launched 8 months ago; over 35,000 users and 300+ paying customers (including public companies and unicorns!).
  4. Team: Founded by two MIT PhDs, backed by major investors such as Y Combinator and Gradient Ventures, we are now a four-engineer team.
  5. Values: Default to action, radical transparency, boldness, and strong opinions loosely-held.

Responsibilities:

We need 10X designers to make this happen! True wizards that can deliver on a daily basis in the high-paced environment.

In this role you will...

  • Lead the creation and implementation of an exceptional brand identity aligned with our vision.
  • Design intuitive and elegant UI/UX for our no-code AI platform.
  • Work closely with the founding team, leveraging your front-end development skills in Next.js, TypeScript, and CSS (Tailwind expertise is a plus).
  • Be up to date to state-of-the-art design trends, tools and overall know-how.
  • Get your hands dirty and code.
  • We're all about our users - listen to their needs, help them, build strong relationships! Expect to dive into customer support now and then as everyone else in the team.

Required Skills and Qualifications:

You will be a great fit if you have...

  • A proven track record as a Developer and Designer, with a strong portfolio in both UI/UX design and front-end development.
  • Proficiency in Next.js, TypeScript, and CSS, with a preference for experience in Tailwind.
  • A deep understanding of user-centered design principles.
  • Experience in creating and maintaining design systems.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills.

Preferred Qualifications:

You will be an exceptional fit if you also have...

  • Experience in leading design projects and collaborating with cross-functional teams.
  • An innovative mindset, constantly seeking to improve the user experience and product design.
  • A passion for AI and technology, with a desire to work in a fast-paced startup environment.

Beyond these skills, what we value the most is your ability to remain curious and open to learning new skills. As a early-stage startup joiner, you may need to wear many hats.

Technology

Our tech stack includes:

  • Frontend: Next.js + Tailwind (Typescript)
  • Backend: FastAPI + Supabase (Python)
  • Databases: PostgreSQL + MongoDB

And we have internally built a super easy-to-use Machine Learning framework tailored to using Large Language Models in a flow-like sequence (akin to Pytorch + Langchain if you are familiar with those). It allows you to seamlessly integrate new functionality into the code base and we are also discussing whether to open-source it since it feels like magic!
