Source description
About the role
Ollama is the most popular way for developers to access open models. What started as an open-source, local-first runtime is now the largest developer network in the open-model ecosystem: 8.9 million monthly active developers and over 67,000+ community-built integrations. We're backed by Y Combinator, Benchmark, 8VC, and Theory Ventures.
Our team is small and talent dense. We're flat, low-ego, and fast-moving. We like people who are truth-seeking, passionate, design-driven, and who enjoy shipping code.
About THE Role
In this role, you’ll work on Ollama’s core user experience: the CLI, Ollama’s app and first-class integrations for Ollama. This involves a strong mix of engineering and design: you'll build new interfaces, ship features end-to-end, and shape how millions of developers experience Ollama.
What You'll DO
-
Build and polish the Ollama desktop app, API, and CLI — the daily driver for millions of developers.
-
Design and implement new product surfaces for Ollama.
-
Implement and improve integrations with coding tools, IDEs and more.
-
YOU MAY BE A FIT IF
-
You've built a great product that real people use.
-
You combine strong engineering with an eye for design and product taste.
-
You can build powerful tools without compromising ease of use.
-
You're comfortable across the stack — TypeScript/React on the front end, Go or similar on the back, and native apps where it matters.
-
You make good calls in gray areas, weighing data, UX, and taste.
-
Bonus: experience with developer tools, AI products, or shipping native/desktop apps.
