About Flick
Flick is defining the future interface for AI-native filmmaking. Think Figma and Cursor, but for creating AI films. Founded by Ray Wang (engineer who built Instagram Stories) and Zoey Zhang (award-winning filmmaker). Well-funded by top VCs including Y Combinator , Google Ventures , True Ventures, and Lightspeed.
The Role
Founding front-end engineer. Lead the development of the core experience of Flick — the canvas, timeline, and creative tooling. Work directly with founders and shape the future interface for AI visual storytelling.
Responsibilities
- Lead the architecture and development of editor UI from the ground up (canvas, timeline, node graph, playback)
- Rapidly prototype and iterate on new creative workflows to validate ideas and user experience
- Establish best practices for code quality, performance, testing, and maintainability
- Collaborate closely with design, product, and AI backend teams to shape end-to-end user experience
- Drive key technical and product decisions as part of the founding engineering team
Required Qualifications
- 3+ years of experience
- Experience owning and leading technical initiatives on high-performance web applications
- Strong expertise with modern front-end tooling ( React , TypeScript , build systems, CI/CD)
- Deep experience optimizing complex UX interactions, especially in editors, canvases, visual builders, or multimedia tools
- Ability to design scalable UI architectures and manage large, dynamic client-side state
- Passion for creating fast, intuitive, and beautiful creative interfaces
- Startup mindset: thrive in fast-moving environments, take ownership, solve ambiguous problems at scale
Nice-to-Have Qualifications
- Experience with video editors, creative canvas, animation/keyframe systems, design tools, node-graph editors, or similar
- Love films and art
- Open-source contributions and personal coding projects outside regular work
