About sync.

sync. is a team of artists, engineers, and scientists building foundation models to edit and modify people in video. Founded by the creators of Wav2lip and backed by legendary investors, including YC, Google, and visionaries Nat Friedman and Daniel Gross, we've raised 6 million dollars in our seed round to evolve how we create and consume media.

Within months of launch our flagship lipsync API scaled to millions in revenue and powers video translation, dubbing, and dialogue replacement workflows for thousands of editors, developers, and businesses around the world.

That's only the beginning, we're building a creative suite to give anyone Photoshop-like control over humans video – zero-shot understanding and fine-grained editing of expressions, gestures, movement, identity, and more.

Everyone has a story to tell, but not everyone's a storyteller – yet. We're looking for talented and driven individuals from all backgrounds to build inspired tools that amplify human creativity.

Overview

While our focus in research is to push the boundary on what’s possible by unlocking new capabilities, our focus in product is to craft intuitive experiences that delight users and extract maximal utility from the capabilities we have today.

Key Responsibilities

  • Architect and build intuitive experience to create and edit video with AI – from magical UX to scalable APIs

  • Own complete user journeys: ideation, prototyping, shipping, and rapid iteration based on user data

  • Interface seamlessly between model capabilities and intuitive user workflows

  • Design and implement product features that become industry standards

  • Champion performance, reliability and developer experience at scale

Required Skills and Experience

  • Exceptional full-stack engineer who has built technical products users love and businesses can build on top of

  • Deep expertise in React ecosystem, modern API design, and real-time systems. Our current stack is NextJS, tRPC, and NestJS

  • Strong product and design sensibilities - you know what makes an experience feel like magic

  • Track record of shipping and owning 0 to 1 features that drove massive impact

  • Experience with video manipulation, creative tools, or ML interfaces

  • Experience working on fast and talented engineering teams with strong work ethics, and understanding how to collaborate and ship exceptional products 

Preferred Skills

  • Built and scaled systems handling millions of daily active users

  • Background implementing complex usage based billing systems

  • Strong opinions on developer tooling and engineering productivity

  • Experience with WebGL, Canvas, or video processing

  • Comfort with ambiguity and rapid iteration

Outcomes

  • Build breakthrough features that define the future of AI video creation

  • Create abstractions and APIs that accelerate entire team's velocity

  • Drive 10x improvements in key metrics through technical innovation

  • Set new standards for performance and reliability at scale

  • Help us grow from millions to hundreds of millions by building things users can't live without

Our goal is to keep the team lean, hungry, and shipping fast.

These are the qualities we embody and look for:

[1] Raw intelligence: we tackle complex problems and push the boundaries of what's possible.

[2] Boundless curiosity: we're always learning, exploring new technologies, and questioning assumptions.

[3] Exceptional resolve: we persevere through challenges and never lose sight of our goals.

[4] High agency: we take ownership of our work and drive initiatives forward autonomously.

[5] Outlier hustle: we work smart and hard, going above and beyond to achieve extraordinary results.

[6] Obsessively data-driven: we base our decisions on solid data and measurable outcomes.

[7] Radical candor: we communicate openly and honestly, providing direct feedback to help each other grow.

What We Do

We’re a team of artists, engineers, and researchers building controllable AI video editing tools to unbound human creative potential.

Our research team builds AI video models to understand and affect fine-grained, controllable edits on any human in any video. Our product team makes these models accessible to everyone from everyday people, professional editors and animators, developers, and businesses large or small to reach new audiences and tell outstanding stories.

Our technology is used to automate lip-dubbing in localization processes in entertainment, create dynamic marketing campaigns personalized to individuals or communities, animate new characters to life in minutes instead of days, fix mistakes in post-production by making word-level edits to avoid rerecording entire scenes, and more – this is just the beginning.

In the last 12 months we graduated at the top of our YC batch (W24), raised a $5.5M seed backed by GV, won the AI grant from Nat Friedman and Daniel Gross, scaled to millions in revenue – and we're only just getting started.
