About the job

Exciting opportunity for a Founding Full Stack Engineer to build and launch a new AI-powered creator services platform. Lead the development of a mobile-first app and backend services, collaborating with research and product teams. Ideal for experienced full-stack engineers with strong expertise in React, Python, or Node, and a passion for innovative, data-driven solutions.

Responsibilities

Build the mobile-first creator app and micro-studio (front-end) and the services behind it (back-end/APIs), turning research and product vision into a live product creators use daily

Develop and manage multi-agent pipelines and prediction serving, including cost-efficient inference, caching, graceful degradation, and eval instrumentation

Collaborate closely alongside the lead researcher to transform model outputs into responsive, low-latency creator workflows and support deployment of trainable model components on Colligo

Build integrations with external creator platforms (YouTube, Instagram, TikTok via OAuth), Adobe's creative tools, Semrush, and internal Adobe services

Build the data pipelines that feed the audience intelligence, insight, and prediction engines — including the outcome-feedback loop

Own architecture decisions as an early hire — from framework choices to data models to deployment pipelines

Contribute to monitoring, observability, and evaluation frameworks that ensure AI-driven features behave reliably and transparently

Qualifications

Minimum

5+ years shipping full-stack products end-to-end (front-end + back-end + APIs)

Proficiency in a modern back-end environment like Python or Node with TypeScript is required

Experience with a contemporary app/front-end stack such as React, React Native, or Flutter is also necessary

Hands-on experience building with LLM APIs and agent frameworks; solid grasp of latency, cost, evals, and fallbacks in production

Experience designing and building scalable APIs, backend services, and data pipelines from scratch

Comfort with cloud infra (Azure/AWS/GCP) and standing up services in a resource-constrained startup environment

Ability to move fast under ambiguity, own outcomes end-to-end, and work effectively in a small, flat team

A genuine interest in the creator economy and the tools creators use to build their businesses

Preferred

Startup or 0→1 experience strongly preferred

Mobile-first experience is a strong plus

Experience with third-party social/platform APIs (YouTube Data API, Instagram Graph API, TikTok for Developers)

Experience with recommender or ML-serving systems; Colligo or similar ML infrastructure
