The opportunity
The Codex App team builds and maintains the Codex desktop app and IDE extension — the primary ways developers interact with Codex. Our goal is to make AI feel like a real software engineering teammate inside real workflows: editing code, running tasks, reviewing changes, and coordinating long-running work.
What you'll do
Build and ship polished, high-performance UI across the Codex desktop app and IDE extension.
Partner tightly with design to turn prototypes into production-quality: experiences (layout, motion, typography, interaction details).
Iterate on future interfaces for interacting with agents: delegation, task timelines, status/progress, handoffs, review, and control surfaces.
Own frontend architecture decisions (component systems, state management, navigation, rendering performance).
Improve quality and reliability through testing, instrumentation, and thoughtful UX for failure modes.
Collaborate with platform/model/backend partners to integrate new capabilities into cohesive product flows.
