Capsule is building the world’s most intuitive AI-powered video editing tool, designed for modern teams. We’re a Series A startup led by two serial founders who have built and scaled creative platforms used by hundreds of millions of people. We’re backed by top-tier investors behind Webflow, Figma, Slack, and Replit.

We’ve grown quickly. In less than a year, 100+ enterprise teams—including HubSpot, ServiceNow, and Instacart—use Capsule to create high-quality, on-brand video content at scale.

We're hiring a Senior Frontend Engineer to help us build the next generation of web-based video editing. You’ll be a key contributor to our engineering culture and product direction, working closely with design and product in a zero-ego, high-ownership environment.

Collaborate with design and product to shape new features from concept to launch
Implement and maintain our design system and component library

Own integrations with internal and 3rd-party APIs

Identify and eliminate technical debt, simplify architecture, and improve performance

Champion quality through testing, code reviews, documentation, and best practices

Explore new technologies through rapid prototyping and R&D

Contribute to a high-velocity, collaborative engineering culture

Stay up-to-date with AI coding tools to gain leverage and velocity

What We’re Looking For

4+ years of professional frontend experience (React, Next.js, or similar frameworks)

A strong sense of product and design—your work should feel as good as it looks
Experience building production apps from scratch

Solid knowledge of modern frontend architectures and web video technologies

Proficiency with Figma and collaborating closely with design

Strong communicator with high emotional intelligence

Entrepreneurial mindset with a bias toward action

Bonus points for:

API development with Node.js

WebAssembly and/or WebGL

AI Engineering

Familiarity with CI/CD and APM tools
