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 filmmaking

Not 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 scale
• Real-time image processing and video generation
• Computer vision for consistency checking
• Semantic understanding of creative feedback
• A "prompt memory" system that learns from every project

This 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 dashboard
- Upload system

: Drag-and-drop for Look & Feel images + shot breakdown CSVs
- Generation interface

: Real-time progress tracking (like a render queue)
- Review grid

: 30-frame storyboard with zoom, annotations, quality indicators
- Feedback tools

: Per-frame notes that trigger smart regeneration
- Prompt memory browser

: Search and reuse past successful prompts

This 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 on
- Can
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 + TypeScript
• Strong CSS/Tailwind

skills
- Experience with
state management

(Context, Zustand, or similar)
- Comfortable with
REST APIs

and async data
- Bonus: Experience with
drag-and-drop

,
file uploads

, or
media-heavy interfaces

You're NOT a Fit If You:

• Need pixel-perfect Figma files for every screen
• Think "it works" is the same as "it's done"
• Haven't worked with real-time or async UI patterns
• Need a PM to write user stories for everything
• Don't care about the "feel" of software

What Makes This Exciting

Build for creators

: Filmmakers are power users — they'll notice and appreciate good UX

Real-time AI

: Watch storyboards generate in real-time — it's genuinely cool

Product ownership

: You're co-designing the product, not just implementing specs

Impact

: Your UI is how filmmakers interact with the future of their craft

Learn creative tools

: Understand what makes tools like Figma feel magical

What We Offer
Competitive Compensation

• Market-rate salary

for your experience level
- Meaningful equity
- You're employee #4-6, not #400

Real Impact, Immediately

• Your code ships to production in
  4 weeks
• Your work appears in real commercials

for global brands
- No 18-month roadmaps or features that never launch

• You're not building another SaaS dashboard
• You're
  democratizing filmmaking

— giving millions of people creative superpowers
- This is the rare engineering job where
art meets code

Founding Team Position

• Work directly with users (professional filmmakers)
• Make product decisions, not just implement specs
• No bureaucracy

, no middle managers, no politics

Cutting-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)
