📍 Salary based on London. Other locations may vary.

Fanvue is one of the fastest-growing creator monetisation platforms globally. We’re an AI-powered, creator-first platform helping creators connect, engage, and earn directly from their audiences at scale. Following our recent Series A, Fanvue has surpassed $200M+ in annual recurring revenue, with triple-digit year-on-year growth, supporting hundreds of thousands of creators and millions of fans worldwide.

As Fanvue scales, we are building AI-native products that differentiate us in the creator economy. This role exists for high-agency engineers who want to work on difficult problems, ship quickly, and use AI as a core part of how they build.

🎯 The Role

We’re hiring a Senior Software Engineer with exceptional raw ability and high agency.

This role is designed for engineers earlier in their careers who demonstrate outstanding intelligence, work ethic, and ownership. You’ll work on meaningful product challenges from day one, contributing across our stack while being mentored and challenged by senior engineers.

Deliver features end-to-end across our TypeScript/Node.js stack

Work on greenfield projects requiring creative, first-principles thinking

Build AI-powered features including chat, content generation, personalisation, and moderation

Experiment with LLMs, embeddings, and AI integrations within product workflows

Ship quickly, iterate based on feedback, and learn from production

Collaborate closely with Product, Design, and senior engineers

Contribute to technical discussions and engineering standards
