Description
We are looking for a Frontend Developer who can shape the visual and interactive experience of an AI-powered narrative product. The product combines storytelling, real-time interaction, and game experiences, so the frontend needs to feel smooth, responsive, and emotionally engaging.
This role is a strong fit for someone who is not only technically solid, but also cares deeply about how interfaces behave, move, and feel. You will work on the product layer that users interact with directly, from polished UI flows to motion, pacing, and real-time AI-driven scenes.
Responsibilities
Build high-quality, responsive frontend features with a strong focus on mobile experience.
Create interactive UI elements, transitions, animations, and visual details that make the product feel polished and engaging.
Develop frontend experiences for real-time AI interactions, including streamed dialogue, dynamic scene updates, and character-driven moments.
Turn product and design ideas into clean, accessible, and visually refined user interfaces.
Improve the product through fast, visible iterations while taking ownership of frontend quality and user experience.
Use AI development tools effectively, including planning tasks, reviewing generated code, testing results, and improving output where needed.
Requirements
5+ years of frontend development experience, ideally with React and TypeScript.
Good product sense and a strong understanding of UI/UX, motion, responsiveness, and visual polish.
Ability to build interfaces that are both technically reliable and enjoyable to use.
Experience working with AI coding tools as part of the development process, with the ability to guide, check, and refine the output.
Clear communication style and the ability to write clean, maintainable code.
Portfolio, live product examples, demos, or other work samples that show your frontend quality and attention to interaction details.
Fluent English.
Nice to Have
Experience working on games, mobile games, interactive entertainment, or highly visual consumer products.
Familiarity with Canvas, WebGL, SVG, or other similar technologies
Previous experience with AI-driven interfaces, chat-based products, streaming content, or agent-style workflows.
What They Offer
A rare opportunity to help define the foundation of a new kind of AI-driven game experience.
The chance to join an early-stage company with strong funding and long-term ambition.
Fully remote work with flexible hours and a high-trust setup.
A small, focused team where your work will have visible impact.
