About CoffeeSpace Partner Roles

This is a CoffeeSpace Partner Role — we work with select early-stage founders building ambitious, category‑defining companies. We help them find their foundational hires through a mix of deep search, outbound, and semantic matching.

This particular role is with Humeo, a San Francisco‑based AI product lab building the next interface of creative expression.

The Company — Humeo

Humeo is building new interfaces for creation and expression in an AI‑native world.

Today, less than 5% of the world’s 5.2B social media users create regularly — not because they lack expertise, but because creation is still time‑consuming, high‑friction, and mentally demanding. Meanwhile, short‑form video dominates attention.

Humeo believes AI can close this gap.

Their first product functions like an AI Short‑Video Production Crew in Your Pocket:

• AI Strategist — Generates a personalized short‑form content plan
• AI Director — Guides you through recording with interview‑style prompts
• AI Editor — Produces polished, ready‑to‑post videos in minutes

This is just the entry point into a broader roadmap:

AI‑accelerated expression, knowledge interfaces, and cognitive tools that help people create more with less effort — and build a healthier relationship with attention.

Humeo recently raised $3.5M to accelerate this vision and is now expanding its early team. This is not a traditional opening — it’s an opportunity to help define the product, shape the workflows, and potentially grow into a true founding role as the company scales.

The Founder — Joseph Chin

• Founder of DocuAsk.ai
• Former full‑stack engineer at Mustard Systems (London)
• Engineering background across Ruby, Python, Node.js
• Deep experience with LLMs, semantic search, and cognitive interfaces
• Fast, high‑agency builder with a strong product instinct

Humeo is the blend of media DNA × AI engineering × cultural insight — grounded in Joseph’s velocity and maker energy.

The Role — Founding Full‑Stack Engineer

You’ll build across the entire product surface, from mobile capture to editing pipelines to the orchestration layer connecting it all. This role pairs directly with the founders and touches UI, backend, infra, and AI systems whenever the work demands it.

You will

• Build across the entire product: web app (Next.js), mobile app (React Native), admin tools, pricing flows, and dashboards.
• Ship real features fast: multi‑agent orchestration, FFmpeg video stitching, Remotion pipelines, and LLM/VLM integrations.
• Architect systems that don’t fall over when we hit one million users in a day.
• Work directly with founders on product decisions, UX flows, and technical direction.
• Dive into anything that moves the product forward — UI, backend, infra, orchestration, computer vision, ML, or devops.
• Own problems end‑to‑end without waiting for permission or detailed instructions.

You're right if you

• Work fast, care deeply, and take extreme ownership.
• Bias toward action and learning — you figure things out quickly and hate waiting.
• Can move between frontend, backend, and light infrastructure without drama.
• Velocity > experience — Even if you have 1–3 years experience, you are perfect if you’re hungry and have shipped AI products.
• Communicate clearly and hit deadlines (or flag issues early).
• Want to build a rocketship in person with the founders, not a cozy nine‑to‑five.

You're wrong if you

• Need hand‑holding.
• Want big‑company structure.
• Move slowly or over‑intellectualize instead of shipping.
• See yourself as just a backend dev or just frontend.

Why builders join

• Meaningful ownership and early‑exercise equity.
• In‑person build hub in San Francisco with the full team.
• Be part of a team that has a track record of success.

Compensation

Base Salary: $150,000–$200,000

Equity: Meaningful early ownership (stock options / RSUs)

We target a total compensation range of $200,000–$250,000 (base + equity). Our equity packages are designed to offer significant long‑term value and align incentives with company growth. Specific grant details will be discussed during the interview process and calibrated to experience, impact, and role scope.
