Tasklet (YC P26) Is Hiring a Head of Design Engineering

Tasklet is building an AI platform that runs businesses on agents: users describe outcomes in plain English and agents execute work across tools and systems. The Head of Design Engineering will own the end-to-end product experience for how people and teams work with these agents, inventing interaction models that make powerful, latency- and-permission-sensitive agents understandable, trustworthy, and controllable. This is a hands-on individual-contributor role that expects the hire to design and personally ship production frontend code, prototype and iterate with AI tooling, simplify complex systems, obsess over interaction details (copy, motion, accessibility, performance), and set durable product principles and patterns across the company.

Ideal candidates are exceptional product thinkers who have built meaningful products from zero - founder experience preferred - and combine elite design judgment with modern frontend engineering skills. The role pays $300K-$450K plus 0.35%-0.70% equity and competitive benefits, is full-time and in-person in San Francisco, and currently does not sponsor visas. Applicants must email a résumé, links, and a ≤5-minute video showing who they are, confirmation of SF work eligibility, and a live demo of their most relevant recent work.
