Emergent Labs
Emergent builds autonomous coding agents that replace traditional software development by generating, testing, and deploying production applications directly from plain-language intent. Our systems run in production at global scale and are used to build millions of real applications. Since our public launch, we've crossed $100M in ARR and grown to over 10M users across 190+ countries . We're backed by Khosla Ventures, SoftBank, Google, Lightspeed, Prosus, Together, and Y Combinator. We're solving the hard part of AI-driven software creation: correctness, reliability, security, and scale in real production systems. The team is built by repeat founders, Olympiad medalists, IIT & IIM alumni, and leaders from Google, Amazon, and Dropbox. We're hiring builders who want ownership, speed, and impact at global scale. The Role: We're hiring a User Research Lead to be the voice of the customer at Emergent. With millions of users building on our platform across 190+ countries, understanding who they are, what they need, and why they behave the way they do is critical to how we build.
