Application Engineer
Menlo, Ho Chi Minh City
The role
We are looking for an Application Engineer to build and ship the Jan desktop app across platforms. You will own the application end to end, from architecture through packaging and distribution, working full stack across the web and native layers. This is a build-and-ship role, not a UI design one. You will care about how the app is put together, how it performs, and how cleanly it gets into users' hands on every platform. This is a lean, agent-native setup, so you will orchestrate coding and execution agents to move fast while keeping the judgment to get the hard parts right.
What you will do
- Build and maintain the Jan desktop app across macOS, Windows, and Linux using Tauri.
- Work full stack across the app: React and Node.js on the application layer, Rust on the native side.
- Own packaging, builds, and distribution: installers, auto-update, release pipelines, and code signing.
- Give Linux first-class support: packaging and distribution across common distros.
- Integrate local model runtimes and app features end to end.
