Job description

The Frontend Role:

We're seeking a talented Front-End Engineer to join our team and help us build the next generation of anime and video game tools. You'll be responsible for designing and developing complex front-end applications, usually in react and typescript, with a focus on making responsive and delightful user interfaces.

You may be a good fit if:

You love anime and the anime aesthetic

As a member of our team, you'll have the opportunity to push the boundaries of what's possible in the anime and video game industry. Ideally you're a fan of the genre.

You enjoy working on complex SPAs.

Most of our apps are interaction-heavy single-page editors, much closer in spirit to photoshop and blender than your typical SaaS app. A willingness to dive headfirst into canvas, webGL, and (maybe!) webGPU is recommended!

And you also have some design sense.

Large complex SPAs have all sorts of super interesting UI/UX challenges! We're looking for someone with experience building tasteful UI, a good design sense for layout, experiences, and microinteractions.

You're comfortable working on small, fast-paced teams

We currently have a tiny team of three on frontend engineering. You'll be working directly with some of the best AI researchers in the world to integrate their state-of-the-art models into your beautiful interfaces.

We also believe in the unmatched speed of in-person teams, and prefer on-site collaboration in either our primary research office in Tokyo (downtown Akihabara) or San Francisco. Visa sponsorships are available.
