Member of Technical Staff (Frontend)

About Astrocade Astrocade is a UGC gaming platform where anyone can turn an idea into a playable, shareable game in days, not months. Think YouTube, but for games. We’ve grown to more than 20 million users within just a few months of launch, and we’re only getting started. Backed by Sequoia, NVIDIA, and Google, Astrocade was founded by Amir Sadeghian (Stanford PhD), Ali Sadeghian (Ex-Google Research), and Fei-Fei Li (Godmother of AI). We’re building the infrastructure for a new era of interactive entertainment. About the Role Games are more engaging, more meaningful, and more fun than passive content — and we think everyone should be able to make them. As a Frontend Member of Technical Staff (MTS), you’ll help make that a reality. You’ll own the creation and play experiences that millions of users touch every day, working at the intersection of product intuition, AI-generated content, and consumer-grade polish. This is a small, dense team: you won’t be maintaining someone else’s system — you will be shaping how the platform feels.
