Software Engineer, AI Product Engineer

ABOUT RETOOLNearly every company in the world runs on custom software : Gartner estimates that up to 50% of all code is written for internal use. This is the operational software for refunding orders, underwriting loans, onboarding employees, analyzing transactions, and providing customer support. But most companies don’t have adequate resources to properly invest in these tools, leading to a lot of old and clunky internal software or, even worse, users still stuck in manual and spreadsheet flows.At Retool, we’re on a mission to bring good software to everyone. We’re building a new type of development platform that combines the benefits of traditional software development with a drag‑and‑drop UI editor and AI, making it dramatically faster to build internal tools. We believe that the future of software development lies in abstracting away the tedious and repetitive tasks developers waste time on, while creating reusable components that act as a force multiplier for future developers and projects. The result is not just productivity, but good software by default. And that’s a mission worth striving for.Today, our customers span from small startups building their first operational tools to Fortune 500 companies building mission‑critical apps for thousands of users across their business.

WHY WE’RE LOOKING FOR YOU

We’re hiring AI Product Engineers to help us push the boundaries of what’s possible with LLMs in the hands of developers. If you’re passionate about building productized AI experiences—fast, reliable, and deeply usable—we want to talk.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

As an AI Product Engineer, you’ll work across product and infrastructure layers to ship developer‑facing AI features that feel like magic—intelligent, fast, and deeply embedded into the act of building software. You might :

• Build generative UIs that let users create real apps from natural language
• Improve the performance, observability, and safety of our internal model architecture
• Extend our AI evaluation systems to support smarter ranking, feedback loops, and product metrics
• Develop patterns for retrieval‑augmented generation (RAG), few‑shot prompting, and agentic architecture.
• Contribute to building internal tools that help us accelerate iteration on AI features and workflows

You’ll work in a TypeScript + Node.js + React stack, but we value strong engineering fundamentals over specific frameworks. You should be comfortable navigating the full stack, even if you lean more frontend or backend.

THE SKILLSET YOU’LL BRING

WHO YOU’LL WORK WITH

You’ll join a small, fast‑moving AI team inside Retool, working alongside engineers, designers, and PMs who’ve built everything from visual programming systems to compiler infrastructure. You’ll also collaborate with our core product and infra teams as we deepen AI’s role across the platform. We value ownership, speed, and a tight feedback loop with our customers (many of whom are developers themselves). This is a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of AI, developer experience, and product design—with real users, real use cases, and real impact.

NICE TO HAVE

READY TO BUILD THE FUTURE OF SOFTWARE?

If you’re excited to shape how developers build with AI—from prompts to production—we’d love to meet you.
