Chief Technology Officer (CTO)

Aurify is looking for a visionary, hands-on CTO to lead our engineering team and scale our B2C visual AI platform.

Location: Fully Remote (Strong preference for Seoul, South Korea) 

Type: Full-time, Executive 

Core Requirement: Proven experience building B2C consumer-facing apps (Visual AI, image/video generation, or AI avatars).

Quick Filter — Read Before Applying

This role is specifically for someone who has built consumer-facing apps or websites where users generate images, videos, or AI avatars. If your background is primarily B2B, enterprise software, or internal tooling—this likely isn't the right fit for us.

**About Aurify**

Aurify is a B2C platform where users upload a photo and instantly get back a high-quality AI video or avatar—no prompts, no editing, no technical knowledge required. We move fast, integrating and leveraging the latest image generation, video synthesis, and digital human models. Our product lives and dies on output quality and seamless UX.

See what we're building:

**You’ve Probably Worked On Something Like:**

* An AI avatar or digital human platform enabling users to generate AI versions of themselves.
* A consumer image generation app (photo-to-image, style transfer, personalized AI photos).
* An AI video creation tool turning photos or prompts into short-form video content.
* A social or UGC platform with AI-powered media features built for everyday users.
* You know the technical challenges firsthand: generation quality, latency, user expectations, API costs, and keeping up with a model landscape that changes every few weeks.

**What You’ll Own:**

* AI Integration: Integrating and managing AI APIs for image, video, and avatar generation.
* Architecture: Building a scalable architecture that handles high content volume reliably and cost-effectively.
* Team Leadership: Leading a small, agile engineering team (currently front-end and back-end developers).
* Agile Strategy: Making fast decisions when new models or competitors change the landscape.
* Cost Optimization: Keeping infrastructure and token costs in check as our user base grows.
* Quality Control: Collaborating with marketing and content teams to ensure output quality matches consumer expectations.

**What Matters Most:**

* You have shipped a B2C product where the core output is AI-generated visual content.
* You’ve worked hands-on with image or video generation APIs—not just read about them.
* You're highly comfortable in a small, fast-paced startup team without established processes.
* You understand consumer behavior—retention, virality, and why users share content.
