Full-Stack Engineer, AI Creative Studio

Summary

Full-stack engineer owning the end-to-end lifecycle of an AI-powered desktop creative studio built with Electron, React, TypeScript, and FFmpeg-driven video processing pipelines in Hong Kong.

We're building an AI-powered desktop creative studio that enables users to produce professional-grade video content with significantly higher efficiency - faster production cycles, consistent visual quality, and a seamless creative workflow. The product is built on Electron + React + TypeScript, with FFmpeg-driven video processing pipelines and plans to introduce lightweight backend services for AI workflows. We're looking for a versatile full-stack engineer to own the product end-to-end: from understanding user needs to shipping polished features. This is not a ticket-driven role - you'll have real ownership over what gets built and how.

Key Responsibilities

  • Own the full product lifecycle - requirement analysis, solution design, development, delivery, and iteration - working directly with internal business users.
  • Build and optimize the content editing experience: timeline, effects, real-time preview, and export pipeline.
  • Develop audio/video processing features, including FFmpeg integration, frame-level rendering, and format transcoding.
  • Architect and maintain the frontend engineering system: build tooling, CI/CD, code standards, and developer experience.
  • Introduce lightweight backend capabilities (API services, task scheduling) as the product scope expands.
  • Stay current with AIGC and creative-tool trends; proactively bring in new technologies and AI-assisted workflows that improve both the product and team efficiency.

Requirements

  • 1-5 years of full-stack development experience with a strong frontend foundation.
  • Solid proficiency in React, TypeScript, and Electron (or similar desktop/web hybrid frameworks).
  • Familiarity with audio/video fundamentals - codecs, containers, frame rates - and hands-on experience with at least one video editing tool (e.g., CapCut, Premiere, DaVinci Resolve).
  • Independent product thinking: you can translate a vague business need into a clear technical plan without hand-holding.
  • Strong self-learning ability and comfort navigating ambiguity in a fast-moving environment.
  • Proficient in using AI-assisted coding tools in daily development.
  • Working proficiency in Mandarin.
  • Strong communication and learning abilities, with excellent comprehension
  • Fluent in Mandarin Chinese

Nice to Have

  • Experience building content creation platforms, CMS, or creative tooling.
  • Hands-on work with FFmpeg, WebCodecs, or OpenCV in production.
  • Exposure to AIGC pipelines - image/video generation, ComfyUI, model serving, or task scheduling systems.
