About Arlequin

Arlequin is building the sovereign European alternative to Palantir: an AI platform capable of processing massive data volumes without bias, with high-impact use cases such as fighting disinformation. Founded in late 2024 by Hugo Micheron (researcher in geopolitics and systemic risk) and Antoine Jardin (CNRS research engineer).

The role

You’ll own the quality and consistency of the user experience across the HUDEX platform — analysis interfaces, complex data visualizations (knowledge graphs, time series, narrative dynamics), user journeys for creating projects and data collections. Our users are non-technical analysts handling massive datasets and AI outputs: interface quality is one of the key factors that makes the difference between contracts that renew and those that don’t. Your business impact is direct.

You’ll work hand in hand with product and a future senior Product Designer, represent the frontend voice in architecture decisions alongside the Head of Engineering, and progressively take ownership of the design system and cross-product patterns.

Core : React 19, TypeScript, Tanstack Router + Query

Visualization: @observablehq/plot, d3, in-house graph library

5+ years of frontend experience, including at least 2 on data-driven products or complex interfaces
