Position Summary

This is an exciting opportunity to be a Principal Frontend Engineer in a high-growth, AI-native product company.

You will play a critical role in building Prophecy’s core product experience, including sophisticated and high-performance user interfaces used daily by data engineers and analysts at scale. While Prophecy is becoming increasingly agentic and AI native, this role is fundamentally about strong frontend engineering and product craftsmanship.

You will design and build complex UI systems where AI agents augment workflows through reviews, suggestions, refinements, and collaboration. We are looking for engineers who want end-to-end ownership, enjoy ambiguity, and thrive in fast-moving startup environments.

The impact you will have

Build the Best Agentic and Low-Code IDE for Data Analysts
Design and build an AI-native IDE that allows data analysts to create, understand, and evolve data pipelines without writing code. Focus on intuitive visual abstractions, guided workflows, and review-driven experiences, while ensuring the platform continues to generate transparent, production-grade code for engineering users.

Design/Develop/Deliver: End-to-End Ownership
Own features end to end from design through implementation, testing, and release. You will build production-grade frontend systems that power Prophecy’s visual builders, editors, and agentic flows.

Over Achiever
In Prophecy we encourage and give environments to engineers to overachieve their own limits. Set up your own metrics, and improve them iteratively under the guidance of senior expert engineers.

Entrepreneurial skills
Own the features end to end as a founder/ceo from the requirement to delivery. We don’t believe in hierarchy, the number of years of experience. Manage your own career growth.
