### The Role

As a founding full stack engineer at Flick, you’ll build the core infrastructure powering AI-native filmmaking — from media generation interface to scalable backend systems. You will work directly with the founders, and have the opportunity to shape the future interface for AI visual storytelling.

-   Work closely with product and frontend teams to ship cohesive experiences.

### **Requirements**

-   Strong experience in **system design and backend architecture** at scale.
-   Proficiency across the stack (e.g. TypeScript/Node, Python, modern web frameworks).
-   Experience building and maintaining **production-grade APIs and distributed systems**.
-   Deep understanding of performance, concurrency, and reliability.
-   **High standards for code quality, testing, and maintainability**.
-   Ability to take ambiguous problems and turn them into clean, scalable systems.
-   Startup mindset: ownership, speed, and pragmatism.

### **Nice-to-have**

-   Love films and art.
-   Have been a filmmaker, animator, video editor, game developer before
-   Have experience in AI video generation.
-   Have contributed in open-source projects, and coding for fun outside of regular work.
