About this role

IMPORTANT: the best way to apply is by submitting a video application by following the instructions on our jobs page here.

At Tasklet, we’re building the cloud agent OS for work. Our product needs to run everywhere — web, desktop (Mac & Windows), iOS, and Android — so our users can work with their agent wherever they are. We believe we can be the main app that most knowledge workers use for everything.

We’re looking for a staff-level engineer to own our client application stack. You’ll be the person who makes Tasklet feel fast, native, and rock-solid on every platform. This is a foundational leadership role with very generous equity — we need someone truly world-class.

Compensation

$280k → $380k salary

0.4% → 0.80% equity

Competitive benefits (medical, dental, vision, 401k, 4 weeks PTO, free lunch, etc)

Responsibilities

Own the client application layer across web, desktop, iOS, and Android

Build and maintain our real-time sync and API architecture so the agent experience is seamless

Define our cross-platform strategy: what’s shared, what’s native, and where to invest

Make Tasklet feel native on every platform — fast startup, smooth interactions, platform-appropriate UX

Drive performance relentlessly — our users live in this app all day, every millisecond matters

Our ideal candidate

Very strong CS fundamentals & experience building complex distributed systems

Exceptional, AI-native programming skills using an ultra-modern stack

You’re AGI-pilled & deep into relevant AI tech

You’ve built and shipped production client apps across multiple platforms

You obsess over performance, startup time, and the small details that make an app feel great

You’ve built real-time data systems, sync engines, or complex state management at scale

You could easily be a staff engineer at a top AI lab — but you want the outsized impact of a startup, and you believe Tasklet can win
