Staff Software Engineer

Senior to Staff Engineers - AI Video Creation 🚀

We’re partnering with an early-stage AI company in the creative tech space that’s reimagining how stories become short-form video transforming scripts, audio, and ideas into stunning content for platforms.

Their browser-based tool blends the polish of design software with the speed of modern editing platforms, giving creators the ability to produce high-quality video in minutes.

The Opportunity

As a Senior Software Engineer, you’ll help craft a high-performance, browser-based video creation experience. You’ll own end-to-end feature development in the frontend, turning complex asynchronous AI workflows into seamless, intuitive interfaces.

You’ll join a small, product-led team tackling big engineering challenges from real-time video editing interfaces and async AI interactions to voice-to-video syncing, undo/redo flows, and performance at scale.

What You’ll Do

• Build fast, responsive, and intuitive UIs with React + TypeScript
• Transform complex AI workflows into simple, elegant user experiences
• Collaborate with product, design, and backend to ship features end-to-end
• Solve for latency, real-time feedback, and async interactions
• Add polish and creativity to video editing and creation tools

What We’re Looking For

• A deep passion for UI/UX and product quality, down to the pixel
• Strong TypeScript/React experience (bonus: comfortable across backend logic)
• A bias toward simplicity, iteration, and shipping
• Comfort working in ambiguity and creating clarity in fast-moving environments
• Senior-level background (Senior, Staff, or equivalent — impact matters more than title)

Tech Stack

• Frontend: TypeScript, React, Remix, Tailwind
• Backend: Django, Celery, Postgres, Redis
• Infra: CI/CD, automated deploys

How They Work

• Remote-first (U.S. time zones) with monthly in-person team meetups (travel covered)
• Fast, iterative product cycles with minimal process
• A collaborative, creative team that values curiosity and craftsmanship

Benefits

• Competitive salary + equity
• Medical & dental (for you + family)
• 401(k)
• Flexible PTO
