Senior Frontend Engineer (React Native - Mobile AI Video Creation)

This is not a traditional mobile application engineering role. We are looking for a Design Engineer focused on building the next generation of AI-powered mobile video creation experiences.

Using React Native and Remotion, you will build an end-to-end creation workflow that enables users to transform a single prompt into a publishable video entirely on their mobile devices-from idea input to AI generation, preview, editing, remixing, and sharing.

We're looking for someone with exceptional product instincts and visual taste-someone who can independently define product experiences without relying heavily on product managers, and who can build an AI video creation tool that feels lightweight, fast, intuitive, and polished.

• Build the end-to-end AI video creation experience on mobile using React Native, covering generation, preview, editing, remixing, and sharing workflows.
• Develop the video generation and rendering pipeline using Remotion, composing text, images, React components, animations, and templates into exportable video content.
• Independently design product interactions and user experiences, translating ambiguous user needs into clear product features, workflows, and interaction models.
• Continuously refine the AI generation experience, including streaming feedback, generation progress, retry mechanisms, partial editing, version comparison, and result selection.
• Build reusable video templates, motion components, and visual design systems that produce consistent, high-quality, and scalable AI-generated videos.
• Optimize mobile performance across rendering, animation, asset loading, low-bandwidth environments, video exporting, and sharing.

• Exceptional visual taste and strong design judgment, with the ability to own the overall quality of video composition, pacing, typography, motion, visual polish, and final output.
• Strong product thinking, capable of independently designing product solutions without relying on detailed product specifications, and able to transform ambiguous ideas into intuitive user experiences.
• Expert-level proficiency in React Native and TypeScript, with experience shipping production-quality mobile applications.
• Strong experience with the Remotion framework, including React-based video composition, rendering pipelines, rendering performance, and architectural best practices.
• Solid understanding of:
  • Animation systems
  • Gesture interactions
  • Mobile navigation
  • Image and video processing
  • Mobile performance optimization
  • Complex frontend state management
• Strong understanding of modern AI-native frontend paradigms, including generation-state management, streaming feedback, and interruptible/retryable asynchronous workflows.
• Experience building creative tools, video editing applications, AI-powered products, content creation platforms, creator tools, or other sophisticated mobile applications.

Candidates with one or more of the following experiences will stand out:

• Experience building AI video generation products, template-based video editors, short-form video creation tools, motion graphics editors, or other content creation platforms.
• Deep familiarity with the Remotion ecosystem, including automated video generation, AI-assisted editing, template rendering, batch exporting, or server-side rendering.
• Experience with technologies such as:
  • FFmpeg
  • Canvas
  • Skia
  • Lottie
  • React Native Reanimated
  • Video transcoding
  • Subtitle generation
  • Audio processing
• A portfolio demonstrating exceptional visual design, motion graphics, creative coding, frontend animation, or design system work.
• Experience building mobile content creation workflows, including sharing, publishing, exporting, compression, uploading, draft management, and version history.
• Strong intuition for consumer products, content creation, and creator ecosystems, with a clear understanding of what makes users want to save, publish, and share AI-generated videos.
