ABOUT GENERALIST

At Generalist, we are on a mission to build general intelligence for the physical world and make it useful to everyone. We believe the industries and homes of the future will depend on humans and machines working together in new ways. Robots can help us build more and get more done.

We build embodied foundation models, starting with a focus on dexterity. This requires advancing the frontiers of data, models, and hardware, to enable robots to intelligently interact with the physical world.

The company embraces both large-scale AI and robotics as core to its DNA. Our team of researchers, roboticists, and company builders come from OpenAI, Boston Dynamics, Google DeepMind, and other frontier labs—with a track record of shipping AI breakthroughs. Before Generalist, we pioneered large embodied multimodal models and vision-language-action models (PaLM-E, https://research.google/blog/palm-e-an-embodied-multimodal-language-model/ RT-2 https://deepmind.google/blog/rt-2-new-model-translates-vision-and-language-into-action/, Gemini Robotics https://deepmind.google/models/gemini-robotics/), launched and scaled ChatGPT https://chatgpt.com/ and GPT-4 https://openai.com/index/gpt-4-research/ to hundreds of millions of users, engineered the foundations of autonomous driving, built next-generation robots (Atlas https://bostondynamics.com/atlas/, Spot https://bostondynamics.com/products/spot/, Stretch https://bostondynamics.com/products/stretch/) and pushed the limits of what they can do (from parkour https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tF4DML7FIWk to manipulation https://bostondynamics.com/blog/large-behavior-models-atlas-find-new-footing/, and testing robustness https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFuA50H9uek).

We’re looking for a Frontend Engineer to build the interfaces that make advanced robotics intuitive and useful. Your work will help researchers understand model behavior, operators manage robot fleets, and customers build with our foundation model. You’ll own frontend development from early prototypes to production applications, working closely with design, product, and infrastructure teams. This role combines strong engineering fundamentals with thoughtful product judgment: you should care as much about how an interface feels as how it is built. What You’ll Do

- Build web applications for robot monitoring, data exploration, model training and evaluation, and internal tooling.

- Turn complex technical requirements into clear, responsive interfaces that help users make decisions and take action.

- Develop interactive visualizations for robot telemetry, video, experiment results, and system health.

- Shape frontend architecture that makes complex workflows easy to understand, test, and extend as the product grows.

- Establish a cohesive design system across our research platform and robot operator interfaces, with shared components, styles, and interaction patterns.

- Work directly with researchers, operators, and customers to understand their workflows, test ideas, and improve the product based on feedback.

- Improve the frontend development experience through clear conventions, reusable patterns, and tooling that helps engineers build consistent features quickly.

What You’ll Bring

- Experience shipping and maintaining production web applications using TypeScript, React, and modern frontend tooling.

- Strong opinions around shared component libraries and UI patterns with good judgment about what to standardize and where flexibility matters.

- Strong frontend architecture fundamentals: clear component boundaries, explicit application state, and an ability to simplify complex code and make it easier for others to extend.

- Experience managing asynchronous data and user interactions, including keeping interfaces accurate and usable during background updates, slow requests, and failures.

- Clear communication and a collaborative approach to working across engineering, design, and product.

Nice to Have

- Experience building tools for robotics, AI, scientific computing, or other technically complex domains.

- Experience with real-time interfaces, streaming data, or event-driven systems.

- Experience keeping data-intensive interfaces fast, including large tables or interactive visualizations and videos.

- Experience consolidating UI patterns and incrementally modernizing an existing frontend while continuing to ship product improvements.

- Excitement around developing frontend developer tooling, such as component previews or advanced useful end to end or browser tests.

- Experience with browser performance profiling, frontend observability, and automated testing.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
