If you are excited to work in a very early-stage environment alongside technical & commercial serial entrepreneurs, using AI at the product core to solve meaningful problems - please reach out.The RoleAs a Senior Software Engineer, Backend & ML, you’ll join a high-impact team of AI researchers, frontend engineers, product designers, and creative technologists to build and scale the infrastructure powering our end-to-end AI systems. From serverless ML pipelines to scalable video processing backends, your work will enable powerful automation and insights for creative and marketing teams.You will embrace open-ended problems around the development, deployment, and scaling of ML models and have the opportunity to take ownership over a large scope of the design and development of our future product and pioneer new advancements in the way humans interact with creative GenAI features in the video and image space. You are the right fit if you’re passionate about creating user and business value and solving problems end-to-end with a strong product sense and design awareness. As a Senior SWE, you will partner with top global talent to build scalable, modular workflows and reliable AI models with user experience top of mind.️What you bring6+ years of experience in software engineering or a relevant field. 3+ years of experience if you have a PhD3+ years of experience in one or more of the following areas: video processing pipelines, computer vision, or media-related machine learning, artificial intelligence, or a related technical fieldExperience building backend systems with TypeScript/Node.js and AWS (especially serverless) or comparable technologiesExperience with developing, deploying or scaling machine learning models from inception to business impactComfortable working in modern cloud environments, especially AWS Lambda, S3, and event-driven systemsExperience as an owner of a particular component, feature or systemAble to make pragmatic technical decisions that support fast iteration and scalingExperience completing projects with a large and ambiguous scopeThrives in cross-functional teams and fast-paced, collaborative environmentsWhat You’ll DoInnovate at the Cutting Edge: Work on bleeding-edge tech at the intersection of creativity, video, and AIArchitect for scale: Help define backend architecture and APIs that support advanced AI capabilities and high-volume workloadsWork closely with product & customers: Translate user needs into backend systems that deliver measurable valueIntegrate ML into production: Design and deploy serverless pipelines for video generation, speech synthesis, and computer visionBuild core backend systems: Develop robust, scalable services using Node.js, TypeScript, and AWS Lambda in a cloud-native architectureOwn data & performance: Ensure fast, reliable processing and delivery of video data across the platformShape product direction — your work will define the experience for people our products daily????Why it mattersVideo is the dominant language of the internet — but creating high-performing content is slow, manual, and fragmented. We’re changing that by:Rebuilding creation from first principles with LLMs, speech, and vision models connected through modular pipelinesGiving marketers creative superpowers by collapsing dozens of tools into one intelligent systemCreating self-learning video systems that generate, iterate, and improve content performance — autonomouslyWhy you should join usNow’s the time: Freshly funded, experienced founders, real traction, top customers — and early enough to still shape everything. You’ll have massive impact on the product, architecture, and our culture.Hard problems, real use: From async orchestration and GPU optimization to data pipelines and video infra — this is applied AI at the edgeFull ownership: No middle layers, full access to customers, full-stack scopeTeam & vibe: Ambitious, curious, global. We’ll reshape an industry and keep it fun while doing so! Team events, offsites and swag!Location & LogisticsRemote-friendly with Monday to Wednesday in office (Europe, HQ in Berlin)Start: As soon as possibleCompensation: Top of market (incl. equity) (We're constrained by bandwidth, not demand - great time to negotiate)Interested? We'd love to chat about how you could help reshape the creative video industry together with us!
