The Role
As our founding front-end engineer, you’ll lead the development of the core experience of Flick — our canvas, timeline, and creative tooling. You will work directly with the founders, and have the opportunity to shape the future interface for AI visual storytelling.
What you’ll do
- Lead the architecture and development of our editor UI from the ground up (canvas, timeline, node graph, playback).
- Rapidly prototype and iterate on new creative workflows to validate ideas and user experience.
- Establish best practices for code quality, performance, testing, and maintainability.
- Collaborate closely with design, product, and AI backend teams to shape the end-to-end user experience.
- Drive key technical and product decisions as part of the founding engineering team.
Requirements
- Experience owning and leading technical initiatives on high-performance web applications.
- Strong expertise with modern front-end tooling (React, TypeScript, build systems, CI/CD).
- Deep experience optimizing complex UX interactions, especially in editors, canvases, visual builders, or multimedia tools.
- Ability to design scalable UI architectures and manage large, dynamic client-side state.
