📍 Job Overview

Job Title: UI Engineer

Company: Intapp

Location: New York, NY, United States | Charlotte, NC, United States

Job Type: Full time

Category: Software Engineering (Frontend Focus)

Date Posted: 2026-07-30

Experience Level: Mid-level (3+ years)

Remote Status: Hybrid

🚀 Role Summary

• Focus on developing and maintaining the frontend foundation for Intapp's AI-powered cloud platform, specifically the Celeste AI-as-a-Service product.

• Responsible for creating and evolving a reusable component library and UI standards to ensure quality, consistency, and maintainability at scale.

• Collaborate closely with senior engineers, technical leads, product managers, and UX designers to drive UI implementation strategies and enable rapid, consistent development.

• Build UI for AI-driven product surfaces, including agentic workflows and dynamic outputs, establishing repeatable patterns for these experiences.

• Develop tooling and infrastructure to empower UX designers for independent prototyping and validation of UI changes.

📝 Enhancement Note: While the role is titled "UI Engineer," the responsibilities and required skills (Next.js, TypeScript, AI-powered product experience, design systems) indicate a strong focus on frontend development within a product engineering context, particularly for complex, AI-driven applications. This role emphasizes not just implementation but also the strategic development and governance of UI architecture and components.

📈 Primary Responsibilities

• Evaluate and improve the current UI implementation across the product to enhance quality, consistency, and maintainability for a growing SaaS platform.

• Assess the long-term suitability of the existing frontend stack (React, shadcn/ui, Tailwind CSS) and propose evolutionary strategies.

• Develop programmatic mechanisms to enforce UI standards, ensuring adherence to established patterns and preventing visual/structural drift.

• Design, build, and maintain a comprehensive, reusable component library and common page templates for efficient and consistent UI development.

• Implement high-quality UI features for AI-driven product surfaces, including agentic workflows and adaptive experiences based on model-generated content.

• Develop and maintain tooling and infrastructure that enables UX designers to prototype and validate UI changes autonomously, reducing engineering dependency.

• Partner with UX designers to resolve tooling issues, unblock workflows, and expand their building capabilities.

• Implement ongoing UI features using the established standards, components, and patterns, ensuring high-quality execution.

📝 Enhancement Note: The responsibilities highlight a blend of strategic architectural design (evaluating frontend stack, developing enforcement mechanisms) and hands-on development (building component libraries, implementing AI-driven UI). The emphasis on empowering designers and building for AI-generated content suggests a forward-thinking frontend role.
