We are seeking a Staff Frontend Engineer to join our dynamic team at Runway. As a key member of our Frontend team, you will be instrumental in building cutting-edge, AI-powered video creation and collaboration tools. We are looking for engineers who are not just specialists but are curiosity-driven problem solvers who thrive in fast-paced, high-ownership environments.

Our API endpoints for real-time collaboration and media asset management are written in TypeScript and Node.js, deployed as serverless functions on AWS Lambda.

Qualifications

  • Experience: 3-6 years in a software engineering role, ideally frontend-focused.
  • Programming Languages: Demonstrated fluency in JavaScript/TypeScript.
  • System Architecture: Experience in architecting production-ready systems and familiarity with debugging and profiling tools.
