Your mission will be to package our AI capabilities into elegant desktop experiences that put unprecedented capabilities at users' fingertips. You will work with a talented team of engineers, researchers, and product specialists to design and implement key components that bridge our AI technology with intuitive user interfaces.

Join us in this exciting mission to transform how people engage with our AI technology and unlock new realms of human potential.

Today, our app is mostly web-based – but we’re eager to build the best possible version of Claude for macOS and Windows with a mix of both native and web technologies.

You might be a great fit for this role if you’re up for the challenge of learning multiple programming languages. We are more interested in strong engineers excited to learn new languages and technologies to build the best possible experience than we are looking for people with hands-on experience in Chromium, Electron, C++, or the various native macOS and Windows APIs.

We believe that strong engineers can learn whatever technology is best suited to build the best possible experience – and we understand that even the best engineers will have little experience with one of the operating systems and areas we’d like to invest in.

We’re looking for curious engineers excited to figure out, with us, what AI on the desktop could do.

Responsibilities:

• Develop and maintain the core infrastructure and features within Claude.ai and in our Electron-based desktop app using a typical web stack (TypeScript, React)

• Use native code (Rust, Swift, C++) to bring advanced features to the desktop app, connecting Claude to macOS and Windows

• Optimise application performance, memory usage, and startup time across platforms

• Design and build robust update mechanisms and deployment pipelines

• Create monitoring tools to track application performance and user experience

• Build a strong intuition for how advanced LLMs could be most useful on your computer, augmenting humans in their work

You may be a good fit if you have:

• Have 5+ years of experience as a software engineer, with strong emphasis on desktop application development

• Have practical experience with Electron and deep understanding of its architecture

• Possess strong JavaScript/TypeScript skills and experience with modern frontend frameworks

• Take a product-focused approach and care about building solutions that are robust, scalable, and easy to use

• Have experience with native module development in C++ to extend application capabilities

• Understand macOS and/or Windows platform-specific technologies and development patterns

• Have experience with cross-platform application packaging, code signing, and distribution

• Thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment and enjoy working closely with cross-functional teams

We’re working with a large number of technologies - and you might be an excellent candidate even if you’ve only worked with a subset of them. An ideal candidate may have never used Electron before but does have hands-on experience in working with Chromium’s C++. Similarly, a great candidate may have worked on Electron apps, but hasn’t used C++ or Swift before. We understand that even the best engineers will have more experience with some platforms than others.

Strong candidates may also have experience with:

• Experience working on and building operating systems, browsers, or deeply OS-integrated software (screensharing, video-calling, game engines, etc)

• Experience integrating and working with AI/ML models and understanding their capabilities

• Demonstrated success implementing cross-platform development strategies

• Vision for the future of AI-powered desktop applications and a drive to make that vision a reality

• Have experience with IPC (Inter-Process Communication) and security in desktop applications

Deadline to apply: None. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis.

The annual compensation range for this role is listed below. For sales roles, the range provided is the role’s On Target Earnings (“OTE”) range, meaning that the range includes both the sales commissions/sales bonuses target and annual base salary for the role.

Annual Salary: $320,000-$405,000 USD

As an Engineer on the Client Infrastructure team at Cursor, you'll design and build the systems that make our desktop experience performant and stable for millions of developers.

You'll work across the core architecture of the Cursor client—from build and distribution systems to performance instrumentation and shared abstractions that other teams rely on. The work is deeply technical and central to the company's success. Developers expect near-perfect performance and reliability from their trusted tools; your work will make that possible.

Cursor's client is growing fast, spanning macOS, Windows, and Linux, and serving an increasingly diverse user base of professional engineers across many programming languages and developer ecosystems. You'll shape the systems that let us ship safely and quickly, while pushing the limits of what's possible in an AI-driven development environment.

Example projects include...

• Building core client infrastructure: shared abstractions, build systems, and observability foundations.

• Improving reliability and performance: eliminating memory leaks, crashes, and frame-time inconsistencies.

• Designing instrumentation and telemetry systems for profiling, structured logging, and performance measurement.

• Partnering with product teams to unlock faster release velocity—shipping updates to users daily.

• Evaluating Electron vs. native approaches for critical code paths, guiding architectural tradeoffs.

• Building internal tooling that enables other engineers to ship safely and quickly on the client platform.

You may be a fit if

• You have deep experience in client infrastructure—build systems, performance, distribution, or observability.

• You've built or contributed to high-performance desktop applications, whether Electron-based or native.

• You care deeply about performance, reliability, and developer experience, and have an eye for elegant systems design.

• You thrive in environments that are fast-moving, collaborative, and product-focused.

• You're excited to push the limits of what's possible in AI-driven developer tools.
