Senior UI Software Engineer (Remote)

About Brave Brave is on a mission to protect the human right to privacy online. We’ve built a free web browser that blocks creepy ads and trackers by default, a private search engine with a truly independent index, a private ad network (opt-in!) that directly rewards you for your attention, and a browser-native AI integration focused on keeping private data private. Already 110 million people have switched to Brave for a faster, more private web. Big Tech makes huge profits off our data, and tells us what’s true and what’s not. The Browser AI team are building core browser features, and exploring new ideas about how the personal nature of the browser can help create the best AI experience for research and creative tasks. Brave allows the user to attach tabs, history, bookmarks and files to AI conversations. Brave also allows the user to experiment with AI joining in with its own web browsing. We’re looking for a new team member capable of iterating these ideas and creating beautiful user experiences for these features. UI engineers will often work with other engineers to create the end-to-end features, or develop the skills necessary to implement the entire feature themselves.
Brave has an exciting UI engineering culture. This role is at an exciting intersection between web UI, web browser internals, and AI possibilities.
This means that new needs can emerge on short notice, and projects are often re-mixed and adjusted in response to new input. Many engineers in this role at Brave start from a frontend or full-stack background and grow into browser-level C++ feature work over time.
