About Hebbia

The user interface for universal knowledge capture. We want every atom of information that our users need to be at their fingertips.

Designed to be generally capable– it can tackle even the most complex tasks, citing answers over any amount of sources.   By showing its work, Hebbia empowers users to collaborate with AI on each step and validate responses instead of blindly trusting them.  Our mission is to put capable AI in the hands of 1 billion people by 2030.

The Team

Hebbia enables leading finance and legal firms with advanced reasoning, copiloting and retrieval capabilities - unlocking meaningful insights for meaningful use cases. The Agents team builds everything from core document understanding capabilities to co-piloting experiences for matrix and deep, multi-source research. We’ve built our own agentic frameworks powered by distributed systems built for scale.

We don’t build for one-off success. We build steerable, reliable and explainable agentic systems. And we build these systems for the scale of data our customers bring to the table. Our goal is to unlock the unknowable unknown for customers all over the world. 

We want to build a product that becomes indisposable to our customers and as delightful as your favorite consumer product. We move fast and build first of their kind systems. 

Our team works in person 5 days a week at our SoHo office in NYC.

What we’ve built: 

  1. A custom multi-agent framework powering everything from deep research capabilities to copiloting interfaces paired with distributed systems infrastructure for long running agentic tasks.
  2. The world’s most powerful and scalable LLM inference engine - a distributed, asynchronous DAG orchestrator capable of incorporating live graph mutations, cooperating in tandem with our LLM throughput management capabilities.
  3. Elastically scaling data representation and metadata generation → powering the most effective private data retrieval systems.
  4. Industry leading agents solving problems from buy side company diligence to multi billion dollar M&A.

The Role

As a Frontend Software Engineer on the Agents team, you’ll play a critical role in shaping the user experience of our core products. Our biggest challenge is building agentic interfaces that provide enterprise control with consumer simplicity. You’ll be responsible for owning major product features end-to-end: from early design collaboration through to implementation, testing, and launch.

You’ll work closely with a tight-knit, cross-functional team of engineers, designers, product managers, and domain experts to architect and ship sleek, scalable interfaces that help our users solve incredibly complex workflows — without the complexity.

Responsibilities

  1. Be an owner. We are a small and growing team relying on each and every engineer to provide significant coverage.
  2. Build without prior art. Agentic interfaces do not have templates or pre-existing guidelines to rinse and repeat - you will be setting the standard for an industry.
  3. Own critical system components. Take complex requirements and turn them into robust, scaled solutions that solve real customer needs.
  4. Unlock meaningful customer value. Our customers aren’t using Hebbia for the gimmick - they unlock market moving value. You will be responsible for unlocking this Alpha.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
