You will join a fresh team in the Palo Alto office focusing on the Agent Opus platform - a leading agentic video generation product. You will work closely with the product, marketing, and sales teams daily to rush prototype, beta, and production versions of this disruptive product.

We’re looking for someone self-driven, highly efficient, and impact-obsessed, who thrives in a fast-paced, experimental environment.


Key Responsibilities:

0→1 Prototyping & Product-Led Growth (PLG)

  • Build & Ship: Rapidly build and ship scrappy 0→1 solutions across multiple tech stacks to capture growth opportunities.

  • SOTA Exploration: Collaborate closely with AI Researchers to explore the boundaries of State-of-the-Art (SOTA) models and brainstorm novel ways to leverage them within the Agent Opus platform.

    Cross-Functional Collaboration & Operational Support

  • Daily Alignment: Work cross-functionally with growth marketers, product managers, and data teams on a daily basis to align on priorities, define metrics, and land measurable impact.

  • Hacker Spirit: A strong entrepreneurial mindset with experience in rapidly growing startups. Good judgment on when to hack and when to craft. You believe that speed is key and quality follows later.

  • Combat Mentality: You dare to set ambitious goals and deadlines, working hard and smart. You resonate with the combat spirit to win (think F1 Movie) and treat challenges like a sport.

  • AI Native & Product Sense: Deeply understand creators, care passionately about end users, and possess strong product sense. Must be comfortable working at a frontier AI company.

  • Global Collaboration: Open to having 1–2 evening meetings per week with Asia-based senior engineers. In-person return-to-office in Palo Alto is required.
