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
