About Sandbar

Sandbar is an interface company in New York City. We aim to bridge gaps, to better navigate the world around & inside each of us. Our north star is self extension.

Our team has built consumer products across Meta, CTRL-labs, Google, Apple, Fitbit, Peloton, and Equinox.

Our first product, Stream, is a new way to capture thoughts—a private voice ring and conversational notepad.

Stream has been featured in WSJ, Bloomberg, Fast Company, and Wired, and begins shipping in Summer '26.

About

We’re looking for an experienced software product engineer to help build Stream, a new conversational interface.

• Work with product, design, and GTM to ship releases, gather insights, and iterate

Qualifications

• 3+ years building and shipping consumer-facing software products

• Strong proficiency in modern web technologies (TypeScript, React or similar) and desktop frameworks (Swift, Electron)

• Comfort working across the stack—backend services, APIs, and frontend

• Track record of building 0-to-1 products or features with ambiguity

• Excellent attention to interaction details

• Experience with real-time or interactive applications is a plus

• Experience with audio/media APIs is a plus

• Strong interdisciplinary communication
