Onlook | Founding Engineer (Fullstack / AI)
Onlook | San Francisco or REMOTE (US) | Full-time
Onlook is an AI-native visual editor that lets designers, PMs, and engineers collaborate directly in the browser. We launched earlier this year, hit #1 on Hacker News, became the #1 trending repo on GitHub (above DeepSeek + Anthropic), and have grown to 22,000+ stars. We’re now hiring our first Founding Engineer.
We’re a design-led, product-obsessed team backed by YC, and we’re building a next-generation visual IDE used by tens of thousands of designers and engineers.
