We're Building the Future of Filmmaking (And We Need You)Our Story Remember when Photoshop democratized graphic design? When Final Cut Pro put editing studios on laptops? When Instagram turned everyone into a photographer?We're doing the same for filmmakingNot by giving people better cameras. By giving them an AI film studio that thinks like a director, works like a crew, and ships like software.What We've Already Built We've shipped real commercials for global brands -Films that look like $200K traditional shoots, made in days for a fraction of the cost.Here's the problem : Our process works, but it's held together by human orchestration.One filmmaker manually coordinates Runway, Midjourney, Magnific, Photoshop — like conducting an orchestra where every musician speaks a different language.We've proven AI filmmaking can be cinematic.Now we're building the operating system that makes it scalable.What Makes This Different This Isn't Another SaaS Tool We're not building project management software or a CRM.We're building a creative instrument — something filmmakers will use to make art.Every line of code you write will show up in actual films.Every optimization you make will help a brand tell their story.Every bug you fix will unlock someone's creative vision.You'll Work With Filmmakers, Not Just Engineers Our team includes people who've shot commercials, directed productions, and understand cinematography. You're not building to specs written by product managers who've never used the product.You're building shoulder-to-shoulder with the users.The Tech Stack Is Genuinely Interesting Generative AI APIs (Runway, Veo, Kling) at production scaleReal-time image processing and video generationComputer vision for consistency checkingSemantic understanding of creative feedbackA "prompt memory" system that learns from every projectThis isn't CRUD. This is AI at the bleeding edge.Your Work Will Compound Every frame you help generate trains the system.Every feedback loop you build makes the next film better.You're not shipping features. You're building a brain that gets smarter.What You'll Build The interface where filmmakers bring stories to life.You'll design and build:Project workspace : Clean, intuitive filmmaker dashboardUpload system : Drag-and-drop for Look & Feel images + shot breakdown CSVsGeneration interface : Real-time progress tracking (like a render queue)Review grid : 30-frame storyboard with zoom, annotations, quality indicatorsFeedback tools : Per-frame notes that trigger smart regenerationPrompt memory browser : Search and reuse past successful promptsThis isn't just wiring up APIs. You're crafting the UX that makes AI filmmaking feel natural.You're Probably a Fit If You: Have 2+ years building React applications that real users depend onCan make UX decisions independently (you don't wait for pixel-perfect mocks)Have built real-time interfaces (progress bars, live updates, async state)Have strong opinions about UI details (spacing, transitions, loading states matter to you)Understand creative professional tools (you've used Figma, Notion, Linear, or similar)Are fast and pragmatic (ship and iterate, don't over-engineer)Have a design sensibility (you can make things look good without a designer holding your hand)Technical Background We're Looking For: Expert-level React + TypeScriptStrong CSS/Tailwind skillsExperience with state management (Context, Zustand, or similar)Comfortable with REST APIs and async dataBonus: Experience with drag-and-drop , file uploads , or media-heavy interfacesYou're NOT a Fit If You: Need pixel-perfect Figma files for every screenThink "it works" is the same as "it's done"Haven't worked with real-time or async UI patternsNeed a PM to write user stories for everythingDon't care about the "feel" of softwareWhat Makes This Exciting Build for creators : Filmmakers are power users — they'll notice and appreciate good UXReal-time AI : Watch storyboards generate in real-time — it's genuinely coolProduct ownership : You're co-designing the product, not just implementing specsImpact : Your UI is how filmmakers interact with the future of their craftLearn creative tools : Understand what makes tools like Figma feel magicalWhat We Offer Competitive Compensation Market-rate salary for your experience levelMeaningful equityYou're employee #4-6, not #400Real Impact, Immediately Your code ships to production in 4 weeksYour work appears in real commercials for global brandsNo 18-month roadmaps or features that never launchMission That Matters You're not building another SaaS dashboardYou're democratizing filmmaking — giving millions of people creative superpowersThis is the rare engineering job where art meets codeFounding Team Position Work directly with users (professional filmmakers)Make product decisions, not just implement specsNo bureaucracy , no middle managers, no politicsCutting-Edge Learning Production-scale generative AI (Runway, Veo, Kling at volume)Creative systems design (how do you build software that feels like collaborating with a film crew?)Prompt engineering as craft (the new fundamental skill)
