[Remote] UX/UI Engineer

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Legacybox is hiring a UX/UI Engineer to build the customer-facing experiences for its family memory platform across web, iPhone, and TV. The role focuses on making family media easy to find, watch, organize, and share, while contributing to supporting services and product analytics when needed.

Responsibilities

• The customer web app, where families watch, search, organize and share what we digitized
• Our mobile and TV apps, so the archive is on the phone in your pocket and the TV in the living room
• Playback at scale: petabytes of family video, audio and photos that should start instantly on any screen, even on a bad connection
• AI that understands what's in the media: Gemini on Vertex AI today, with transcripts and photo enhancement next. All of it runs under clear rules for how we treat customer media
• New ways in: member uploads and capture in the app (voice notes, stories, photos), and search across a family's archive
• The Platform behind it all: Python services on Google Cloud for media, sign-in, memberships and notifications. You'll work here when the experience needs it
• Product analytics in PostHog and our warehouse, so we know what families actually come back to
• Help a family find the five minutes that matter in forty hours of tape
• Make the day a customer's order lands in their library feel like opening the box, not downloading a folder
• Bring a forgotten moment back to someone on a day it means something, like the birthday of the person in the video
• Give everyone in the family a way to say who's in a photo and what happened that day, while they still remember
• Get a cousin three states away invited, signed in and watching in under a minute
• Build something a grandparent who's never used an app can sit down and watch on the TV
• Make a library feel as good with 30,000 photos and videos as it does with 30
• Add transcripts and search, so a family can find a moment by what was said in it
• Let members upload their own photos and video next to what we digitized
• Keep families in the loop while their order moves through the Digifactory, in the app, by push and by email
• Measure what families come back to, and build more of it

Skills

• You've done one of these jobs (engineering, product or design) well, and you loved doing it
• 2+ years shipping consumer software that real people use
• Strong in TypeScript and React, or Swift and SwiftUI
• Willing to work in both, and in the Python behind them when you need to
• You sweat the details people feel but rarely notice: loading states, transitions, empty screens, what happens on a slow connection
• You can design. Maybe not as well as a designer, but well enough to take a rough idea to something a customer could use, with or without a mockup
• AI is how you work every day: agents, not autocomplete
• You can tell us the last thing an agent got wrong for you and how you caught it
• You talk to the people who use what you build, and you can write a one-page brief before you write the code
• You measure what you ship
• For this role, that's usually front-end engineering or design
• Video and photo experiences: players, galleries, timelines, libraries with thousands of items
• Building for the TV, or for people who aren't comfortable with technology
• Accessibility done properly
• Motion and animation that make an interface easier to follow without slowing it down
• Search, recommendations, or other ways of helping people find things they didn't know to look for
• A design system you built or kept healthy
• Consumer or subscription products
• You're in or near Chattanooga, or happy to visit regularly

Benefits

• Health insurance: medical, dental and vision, with 100% of the employee premium covered
• 401(k) matching
• PTO
• Remote work from anywhere in the US
• Professional development: conferences, courses, books
• MacBook Pro and the gear you need
• Quarterly team offsites
• Free Legacybox service for your own family's memories
