Job Description

AI Talent Now job # Senior AI Product Engineer(ZR_95_JOB)

Our San Franisco based client is building the next generation prompt-to-edit platform for video creators. Their mission is to make content creation fast, accessible, and collaborative. In doing so, they enable everyone to share their story online.

They have two products:

• K AI: A prompt-first AI editing companion that helps creators refine visual content.
  
• K Studio: An online video editor that is collaborative, powerful, and easy to use. Millions of creators every month choose Kapwing to tell their story and bring their ideas to life.
  

This dynamic company turns video editing, traditionally a heavyweight, time-consuming workflow, into a joyful, collaborative experience. We believe that we can use technology to augment the video editing and content creation experience, and we've already started on this path with a wide array of templates, plugins, and new pipelines for combining tooling with the best AI models.

Join them on their journey to democratize creative tools and invent the future stack of video creation!
