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.
