• Shape the model arena, designing clear ways to find, compare, and rate generative AI models.
• Work with product, design, and go-to-market staff to turn new market trends into strong product features.
• Test image and video generation models for quality, range, reliability, and practical use.
• Prototype and launch projects quickly, driven by new models, technologies, creative formats, and changing user habits.
• Build polished, production-grade frontends in React and Next.js, owning them end to end.
• Use product data and user feedback to decide what to improve, expand, or drop.
• Balance speed, correctness, and scale in practical ways, and explain those choices clearly.

Requirements

• Hands-on experience with image or video generation models.
• Experience designing or running model evaluations, benchmarks, or comparison systems.
• Experience building AI creative products, agent experiences, or consumer applications.
• Familiarity with product analytics, experimentation, or growth-focused product work.

Benefits

• Work at the leading edge of a fast-moving market, turning new models, creative formats, and user behavior shifts into products while the opportunity is still new.
• Small team with a wide scope: engineers own products and experiments from spotting an opportunity to shipping it to users.
• Your work reaches millions of creators, so you get quick feedback on what works.
• Both founders are technical and deeply involved in product and engineering.
• You work directly with the latest image, video, and language models and help decide how they become useful creative experiences.
• High ownership and little process. The team values product judgment, clarity, and speed over bureaucracy.
