# Sr\. Full Stack Engineer - Company: [Trueshort]() - Location: Remote — US Preferred - Remote: Yes - Team: Engineering - Employment type: Full Time - Posted: April 21, 2026 ## Job description ## The Short Version We're building the world’s first AI-driven film studio and distribution platform. We have 250K+ downloads, backed by $12M from Keith Rabois at Khosla Ventures, Jeffrey Katzenberg (Founder of DreamWorks), Scott Belsky (Founder of Behance), Brian Halligan (Founder of HubSpot), and General Catalyst. We need a senior full-stack engineer to own the consumer web apps, internal production tools, and CMS, and eventually lead the expansion into TV streaming apps! Want to build consumer-facing software where millions of people stream content, and work on a proprietary AI content generation pipeline? This role is both. At TrueShort you’ll work alongside incredibly talented, entrepreneurial, and technical people, with real autonomy and influence ## About TrueShort We’re using the latest technology in AI to create cinematic-level streaming content, and distributing it to our users through our mobile/web apps. We pair proprietary AI video production tools with a team of filmmakers and engineers to create binge-worthy series at a pace and cost traditional studios can't touch. ## What You'll Do * Own and develop consumer-facing web apps for TrueShort and GoodWatch — streaming, discovery, subscriptions, the full user experience * Build and maintain the CMS that manages content distribution across our apps * Use AI to work on internal company tools that boost our productivity & efficiency * Work across the backend — streaming infrastructure, APIs, content delivery — you'll be close to the full pipeline * Shape the product — our engineers at TrueShort aren't just implementers. You'll influence what we build and how. * Work alongside talented engineers and executors to create the new Netflix. ## What We're Looking For * Strong frontend skills in React / Next.js — you should be fast and opinionated here * React Native / Android experience is highly relevant, but not required. * Strong backend engineering experience. Experience with AWS or similar cloud-native infrastructure is a plus. * Experience building internal tools and dashboards — you enjoy making other teams more productive * Comfort working across the stack when needed — backend, infra, data pipelines * An eye for UX — you care deeply about what the user actually experiences, not just whether the code compiles * Self-directed, fast-moving, and comfortable with ambiguity that comes from working in a startup environment * Genuine interest and experience in AI as both a product domain and a development tool * We care about what you can build, not how many years are on your résumé. ## The Stack **Frontend:** Next.js, React **Backend:** AWS Amplify (Lambda, AppSync, DynamoDB, S3, SQS, CloudWatch) **Mobile:** Swift (Native IOS). Android (React native / Kotlin) **AI tooling:** Whatever works best — Claude, Cursor, Codex, you name it ## Why TrueShort * Unusually wide scope. Consumer apps, AI production tools, CMS, streaming infra — you'll touch all of it. * Series A with heavyweight backers. Khosla Ventures, Scott Belsky, Jeffrey Katzenberg. * 200K+ downloads and growing. * Flat structure, real ownership. 10-person team. Your work ships directly to users and creators. * Unlimited PTO. * Full AI subscription access. Claude Max, Cursor, OpenAI Codex — whatever makes you more productive and enjoy your work, we'll pay for it. * Team off-sites in cool places. * A genuinely ambitious mission. We're not building another SaaS dashboard. We're building an AI-native studio to compete with the biggest names in entertainment. * Exciting startup with huge upside potential & equity We move fast on candidates we're excited about! ## Apply [Apply on Trueshort]() Canonical job page:
