The full description
We are looking for a Founding Engineer with 0-5 years of experience to join a 3-person team building the first AI-native collaborative video editor. You'll help scale a product already beloved by major Hollywood studios into a consumer launch, pushing the browser to its absolute limits with professional video workloads and agentic editing workflows.
What will you be doing?
- Building and hardening a desktop-class video editor in the browser that handles 10+ hours of daily professional use without crashing
- Developing AI agents that understand video editing, brand consistency, and motion graphics
- Performance engineering to beat traditional editors like Adobe Premiere on playback, scrubbing, and responsiveness
- Training and deploying small ML models (classifiers, vision-language models) for video understanding tasks
- Talking to customers and users daily, dog-fooding the product, and shipping features end-to-end
