The role in plain terms
UX engineer sits between design and frontend engineering: you both design how AI behavior is presented and build it. The agentic-AI focus makes this one of the more specialised UX roles in this list - designing for systems that act, stream and sometimes fail is a different craft from designing static flows, and the listing treats recent GenAI interface experience as important rather than optional.
The team and the work
Per the listing, the work applies to Elastic's search AI platform, where AI features meet technical users - devops and security teams - who need transparency into what the AI is doing.

Who this role suits
UX engineers or design-engineers with recent, demonstrable GenAI interface work and strong implementation skills. Not for visual designers without engineering depth, or frontend engineers without AI-interface experience.
Practical notes
For AI UX roles, expect a portfolio deep-dive on an AI interface you designed: streaming states, confidence display, error and fallback handling. Bring live examples or prototypes, not static screens.
