Software Engineer (Frontend)
Location: San Francisco (3 days per week in office)
Cleanlab’s mission is to democratize safe, trustworthy, and reliable AI. We believe the most promising path to such AI follows a data-centric approach. We build open-source algorithms and no-code SaaS solutions based on our research to help individuals and teams systematically and algorithmically curate high-quality datasets, which enables AI systems to train reliably on real-world messy and error-prone data.
The role
As a frontend software engineer at Cleanlab, you will be responsible for building Cleanlab Studio, a user-friendly web app powered by our data-centric ML algorithms.
What you might work on
- Implementing user interfaces for data visualization, interpretation, editing, and correction
- Maintaining and contributing to our design system
- Optimizing code for speed, scalability, and reliability
- Ideating and prototyping novel product features enabled by our research
- Collaborating with our data scientists and machine learning engineers to integrate feedback
Our frontend tech stack includes TypeScript, React, and Tailwind.
What we’re looking for
- Track record of shipping high-quality code in challenging projects
- Exceptional programming skills
- Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment, navigate ambiguity, and adapt to changing priorities
Cleanlab strives to be a place where high-potential individuals come together to build something great. We value grit and the ability to learn quickly as much as skill and experience.
Our software engineering jobs have no hard requirements (like years of industry work experience, or even experience with the programming languages we use). Instead, we evaluate each application individually and consider any aspects that might stand out. Do you have some amazing open-source contributions? Did you write an impactful paper? Did you do some amazing work at a past job?
If you’re a great hacker, you believe in our mission, and you identify with our culture, we encourage you to apply!

About us
Prior to Cleanlab, our founders (3 ML PhDs from MIT) worked at OpenAI, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, AWS, Facebook AI Research (FAIR), Dropbox, Oculus, Palantir, NASA, General Electric, MIT Lincoln Laboratory, MIT, Harvard, and Stanford – at every place we worked we repeatedly encountered the same issue – AI solutions failed to work reliably on real-world, human-centric data due to label errors and poor data quality. So, we spent eight years of PhD research at MIT inventing a new field to solve this problem and after successful pilots with world-leading organizations, Cleanlab emerged.
Everything we do at Cleanlab is guided by our north star – to improve the world’s ML data more easily and quicker than any other solution – enabling AI systems to train more reliably on real-world, messy, error-prone data. We develop next-generation data-centric AI, open-source algorithms and provide no-code SaaS enterprise solutions to help individuals and teams at companies (across all industries) diagnose/fix issues in their datasets and produce more reliable ML models by providing clean labels for training.
While many companies can help store/manage data or develop ML models, there exist few solutions today to improve the quality of existing data, which is the core asset of the modern enterprise. This is where you come in. At Cleanlab, you’ll be able to take ownership of critical projects that pioneer the future of data-centric AI.
We are a hybrid company, with over half of our team (and office) located in San Francisco.
