- Turn ambiguous ideas from leadership and partner teams into working prototypes that can be tested, demoed, and iterated on quickly
- Build and maintain internal tools that help teams adopt AI-assisted ways of working
- Evaluate emerging AI tools, models, and techniques, and recommend what teams should adopt
- Create reusable patterns, templates, and starter kits that make it easier for others to build with AI

- Partner with UX, product, and engineering teams to move promising prototypes toward production
- Document what works (and what doesn't) so learnings scale beyond a single project
A day in the life
Your morning might start with a quick sync with your manager on enablement priorities, then a few hours of heads-down building, maybe wiring an agent into an internal data source or refining a prompt workflow. After lunch, you could demo a prototype to a design team, gather feedback, and iterate on it that afternoon. Later, you might pair with a PM who wants to automate part of their workflow, or test a new AI coding tool to see whether it's ready for broader adoption. Most days end with something new working that didn't exist that morning.
About the team
SCORE is a group of design technologists, designers, and builders who bring Humorphic experiences to life. We explore how AI should look, feel, and behave when it's built around people, and we're leading our organization's shift to AI-native ways of working. We value curiosity, speed, and craft, and we'd rather show a working prototype than debate a spec. You'll join a small, hands-on team where your work is visible and directly shapes how people experience and build with AI.
Basic qualifications
- 3+ years of front-end technologist, engineer, or UX prototyper experience
- Have coding samples in front end programming languages
- Experience with web, mobile web, or mobile app front-end development
- Experience with UI design for complex workflows and for end users
- Experience building prototypes or tools that use large language models (LLMs) or generative AI services
Preferred qualifications
- Knowledge of technologies such as JavaScript/NodeJS, HTML/CSS, Responsive/Adaptive Design
- Knowledge of Python, Javascript, and source control (Git)
- Experience using AI-assisted development tools in academic or professional settings

Skills and AI tools this role asks for
Questions you could be asked
- What's a project where you used Bedrock hands-on?
- This role expects you to use AI tools as part of the job. Which ones have you used, and for what?

Adapt your resume
- List these exact terms on your resume: Bedrock. An applicant tracking system matches the wording, not the idea.
