As an organization, we approach challenges with humility, take ownership of our contributions, and embrace a growth mindset that pushes us to constantly improve ourselves, each other, and the value we bring to customers and partners. Amplitude's Commitment to Diversity Equity & Inclusion (DEI): Amplitude believes that diversity enables the creation of better products, improves the ability to solve complex problems, and drives more powerful solutions. We strive to create an environment of inclusion-one focused on psychological safety, empathy, and human connection-that will allow employees of all backgrounds to thrive. What we're working on: We're a team of startup engineers working on a new product within Amplitude. Here's what drives us: It's crazy how little software has changed over the past 20 years. It's gotten a lot more powerful, but users still mostly do the same things - find the right page, find the right button, google how to do something, etc. We believe software should flex to meet users where they are rather than the other way around. We're building an AI-powered personal chaperone for users, embedded into websites and apps. It's a chatbot, but it's a lot better in a few ways: It uses AI to personalize responses to every user, leveraging the power of Amplitude data It can show users around with a cursor - think "tour guide" mode It can perform actions on behalf of users by using APIs and interacting with other agent We're looking for an excellent product builder to join us - someone who's as excited as we are to build the next generation of UX and bring it to millions of users. What makes this role special? Immediate impact: The product you'll be working on has real customers that are getting real value from it - no AI vaporware. High velocity: No sitting in meetings waiting for direction - we make decisions quickly and are always shipping. Our team came over from CommandAI and we embody startup energy. Killer team: We have >3 years of experience building production AI products. You'll get to learn how real-world AI applications are made, deployed, monitored and scaled. Data moat: Amplitude has the largest repository of behavioral data in the world. We keep it light: We build cool stuff and have fun while we're doing it. You're someone who enjoys working with other curious people.
