MIT Media Lab product designer Jacob Cole is building Ideaflow – a notebook that augments your intelligence as you type. Our product enables users to seamlessly capture and stitch together fragments of information, amplifying their ability to solve critical problems. Our mission: build the ultimate personal knowledge management system that evolves into humanity's collective brain. This role involves building an offline-first, real-time collaborative notebook, making knowledge graphs & LLMs feel magical, creating the smoothest note-taking experience, and making collaborative intelligence feel like a superpower.

We will leave the brain-computer interfaces to Elon Musk, but we believe it’s possible to build that "shared brain" now, and that it might look different than many imagine. We want to create a future where nobody feels alone with their ideas, where intellectual soulmates find each other, where superconnectors are empowered. We see our software as critical to creating the frame for humans and machines to work together to solve the world's most important problems.</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Our vision derives from years of research at the MIT Media Lab, we’ve now raised over $10M from some of the world’s most influential investors, including First Round Capital, 8VC, Sequoia scouts, and Naval, and we are looking…for YOU.</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">If you’re a strong Javascript engineer, have a lot of thoughts (writings, lists, quotes, ideas, or notes on people!) you want to capture, and are someone who likes to work with fun, bubbly people, drop us a line ✨🛁📓🤓.</p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed"><em>The destiny of the Web is in your hands.</em></p><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Feel free to drop us a note at jacob@ideaflow.io</p><h2 class="text-2xl md:text-3xl font-bold mt-10 mb-4 border-b pb-2 text-gray-800">The Role:</h2><p class="my-4 text-gray-700 leading-relaxed">Imagine the world's lowest-friction thought-capture system meets Figma-for-knowledge-graphs.
