Full Stack Product Engineer

We’re building an AI‑native workspace—an operating system for work that puts co‑intelligence at the center. Start with data or an idea, describe your goal, and Obvious goes to work: running analysis, searching the web, writing documents, generating tables, designing presentations, visualizing data, building dashboards, and more.

As Steve Jobs imagined the personal computer as a bicycle for the mind, Obvious imagines AI as a garden for the mind. Less mechanical acceleration. More organic cultivation.

What if, instead of just vibe coding, you could vibe‑work? What if getting from idea to done wasn’t so opaque, stubborn, and high‑latency?

What if there was a way to consistently deliver work that feels like it came from the best version of you on your best day?

That’s Obvious.

While we've made significant progress with our AI features like search, data enrichment, modes, artifact generation, coding, and more, we're just scratching the surface of what's possible.

We need engineers who can bridge the gap between powerful AI models and production-ready experiences that solve real user problems.

This isn't just about writing prompts – it's about building resilient systems that can handle the unique challenges of working with AI at scale and can solve some of the industry's most interesting problems like memory, agent-to-agent collaboration, non-deterministic repeatability, and more.

We are small and talent-dense. Among our founding team, we have world-class builders, former founders, and leaders from companies like Netflix, Google, Uber, Meta, Dropbox, Instacart, Shopify, Apple, Datadog and Twitter (X). If you're excited to solve some of the world's most challenging problems and build Al that can deliver on real-world objectives, join us.
