Job Description
San Francisco (On-site) | $175k - $300k + Competitive Equity
About the OpportunityWe're partnering with a well-funded, high-growth startup ($17M raised from top-tier VCs including Pace Capital, Chemistry, Abstract Venture, and notable angel investors) that's building the future of visual AI creation tools. Their open-source framework has achieved 60,000+ GitHub stars and serves millions of users worldwide, making it the most popular visual AI platform in the ecosystem.
This is a rare opportunity to join a 12-person team (10 FTE + contractors) at the ground floor of a company that's redefining how creators, studios, and enterprises work with generative AI.
The RoleWe're looking for a full stack engineer who can build and scale fast. This isn't a role where you'll be siloed—you'll own features from conception to deployment, directly impacting millions of users. The team values speed of learning and quality of execution over specific tech stack experience.
Tech Stack:- Frontend: VueJS, Electron, TypeScript
- Backend: Python, Go
- Open to contract-to-hire arrangements
- Build core product features across the full stack (TypeScript/Electron/React frontend, Python backend)
- Ship features that directly impact millions of users globally
- Work closely with the founding team to architect new systems and shape technical direction
- Jump fluidly between frontend, backend, infrastructure, and everything in between
- Help guide the company's technical roadmap as the team scales
✅ You build entire systems from frontend to backend without breaking a sweat
✅ You learn new technologies rapidly because you're excited by solving hard problems
✅ You've scaled systems before and understand the tradeoffs that matter
✅ You think most software moves too slowly and could be dramatically better
✅ You're comfortable diving into unfamiliar code and making it work
✅ You have 4-10 years of experience as a full stack engineer at startups or growth-stage tech companies
Nice to Have- You've excelled at a fast-paced, high-growth tech startup before (or are extremely excited about being in one)
- Experience with open-source communities or visual/creative tools
Don't know every piece of the stack? That's fine. The team cares about your ability to learn fast and ship quality code. They're outpacing the industry by learning what they need to solve problems, not by sticking to what they already know.
