About the role

  • You'll work across the entire stack: Next.js and a real-time multiplayer canvas on the frontend, Typescript / Postgres / Temporal on the backend, and the agent orchestration layer that ties everything together.
  • We value engineers who move quickly, think from first principles, and care deeply about product quality and user experience.

Responsibilities

  • Build and ship product across the full stack, from frontend interactions to backend infrastructure and orchestration systems.
  • Design new tools and capabilities for our agents: what they can see on the canvas, what they can modify, and how they communicate reasoning back to users.
  • Build infrastructure for long-running, multi-step creative workflows, including branching, retries, and human-in-the-loop interactions on top of Temporal.
  • Develop evals, traces, and internal tooling to measure and improve agent quality over time.
  • Work closely with founders, design, and product to define the future of AI-native creative workflows.
  • Experience building frameworks, tooling, and interfaces for agents
  • Strong taste for product quality, interaction design, and developer craftsmanship.

Requirements

  • 3+ years of experience building production software at high-growth technology companies or startups.
  • Strong experience with TypeScript across both frontend and backend systems.
  • Product-minded engineer with strong ownership and the ability to operate autonomously.

  • AI image/video generation pipelines
  • Creative tool software development

Skills

  • Rethink how creatives interact with AI systems through interfaces that go beyond traditional chat experiences.
