ROLE OVERVIEW
We are hiring a Full-Stack Engineer to help build a highly interactive, creator-focused product that blends modern web
engineering with AI-powered generation workflows. This person will work across polished frontend experiences, reliable
backend services, real-time interactions, and the infrastructure needed to keep creative workflows fast, stable, and intuitive.

WHAT YOU WILL OWN

• Design and ship production-quality React and TypeScript interfaces for interaction-heavy creative workflows.
• Build backend services in Node.js or Python that support real production traffic and user-facing product features.
• Work with REST and WebSocket APIs, Postgres data models, Redis caching, observability, and production monitoring.
• Improve workflow performance across latency, queueing, cancellation, retries, error recovery, and user feedback states.
• Collaborate in a fast-moving small team environment where engineers write, test, deploy, measure, and iterate quickly.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• 3+ years of serious React and TypeScript product engineering experience with shipped production work.
• Hands-on backend experience in Node.js or Python supporting real users and production traffic.
• Experience building interaction-heavy UI such as infinite canvas tools, editors, node graphs, media tools, or live workflow
• surfaces.
• Practical experience with REST APIs, WebSockets, Postgres, Redis, and production monitoring or debugging.
• Able and willing to work on-site in San Francisco.

STRONG MATCH BACKGROUND

• Built canvas-based, editor-style, graph-based, node-based, or workflow-builder product surfaces.
• Integrated image, video, audio, or other long-running generation APIs with thoughtful queueing and failure handling.
• Kept generation or creative workflows stable under load by managing latency, retries, cancellations, and recovery paths.
• Has a strong product sense and can clearly explain why a creative workflow feels fast, slow, confusing, or fragile.
• Comfortable shipping daily in a small team and using data or user feedback to improve the product.

BONUS EXPERIENCE

• Real-time or multiplayer systems, including WebSockets, CRDTs, collaborative editors, or live shared state.
• Experience using or integrating AI-generation APIs for image, video, audio, or creator tooling.
• Heavy personal or professional use of generative AI tools with strong taste for creator workflows and product quality.

THIS MAY NOT BE THE RIGHT FIT IF

• You have less than 3 years of hands-on React and TypeScript product development experience.
• Your background is frontend-only with no meaningful production backend ownership.
• Most of your full-stack experience is limited to CRUD applications without complex UI or async workflow challenges.
• You are not comfortable reasoning about the quality, speed, and feel of creative product interactions.
• You are only considering remote roles, as this position requires on-site work in San Francisco.
