Job Description

Software Engineer Intern, Frontend - Fall 2025

Arcade is building the world's first AI physical product creation platform, where imagination becomes reality. Our platform lets anyone design, purchase, and sell custom, manufacturable products using natural language and generative AI. We believe everyone should have the power to create physical goods as easily as they post online, and we're building the infrastructure to make that real.

Arcade is headquartered in San Francisco's Presidio and led by serial entrepreneur Mariam Naficy (Minted, Eve), and a founding team with deep experience in generative AI, design systems, and supply chain. We're pioneering a new category at the intersection of AI, personal expression, and on-demand manufacturing, and we're building fast.

What You'll Do

Design and build scalable frontend features in Next.js/TypeScript, including SSR/ISR, routing, and edge-aware data fetching

Develop and maintain a reusable design system and component library; ensure accessibility (WCAG) and responsive layouts

Implement real-time, AI-powered UX (streaming UIs, optimistic updates, background tasks) with robust state management

Collaborate across backend/AI, product, and design to integrate new capabilities into polished, manufacturable product flows

Optimize performance (Core Web Vitals), bundle size, caching, and client/server rendering paths

Add thoughtful instrumentation, experiments, and UI quality gates (analytics, A/B tests, error and latency tooling)

Contribute to a high-trust, high-velocity engineering culture

We're Looking Engineers Who

Have strong frontend foundations (TypeScript, React/Next.js) and enjoy crafting fast, reliable user interfaces

Have experience owning production systems that interact with real users or real-world data

Are excited about generative AI in the UI and have worked with LLM-powered features, multimodal inputs, or retrieval-backed experiences

Move quickly from prototype to production and thrive in high-agency environments

Care deeply about design details, accessibility, and user experience

Bring energy, taste, and humility to everything they do

What You Bring

Currently in school with a background in Computer Science, Engineering, Physics, Mathematics, or a similar field

Must be available to start sometime between January and August 2026

Experience building and scaling web frontends in production

Proficiency with TypeScript, React, and Next.js (App Router preferred)

Familiarity with styling approaches (CSS Modules/Tailwind), component composition, and design tokens

Experience with testing and reliability for frontend (Jest, React Testing Library, Playwright or Cypress)

Understanding of data fetching and caching (React Query/SWR), API integration, and edge runtimes (e.g., Vercel/GCP)

Hands-on experience shipping AI-powered UI features or integrating with model-driven APIs

Strong debugging, performance tuning, and frontend system design skills

Bonus: experience at early-stage startups, with generative AI products, or in creative tooling

Competitive compensation

Lunch provided daily

Company events

Arcade is an equal opportunity employer. We're committed to building a diverse, inclusive, and supportive team, and to creating a platform where anyone, anywhere, can make something meaningful.
