First Engineer at Mitty

Location Honolulu, HI (remote-friendly) Type Full-time Stage Pre-seed, YC applicant

What Mitty does

Your camera roll has hundreds of hours of footage sitting unused. Mitty turns it into finished videos.

It reads your camera roll, identifies what's worth making, edits the footage, and hands you a final video ready to post. No timeline scrubbing. No app-switching. No editing skills required.

The role

You are the first technical hire. You build the product.

That means picking the stack, making architecture calls, and writing the code. The founder runs vision, fundraising, and growth. You own everything technical and will be lead engineer for the life of the company.

Your 90-day deliverable

Ship v1. A working app that reads a user's camera roll, understands the footage, selects the best clips, edits them together, and delivers a finished video ready to post. Done. Shipped.

Skills that help

Where this goes

The goal is category leadership in AI-powered video creation. We are building toward an acquisition or Series B in 3 years. The acquirers are obvious: Adobe, Canva, Meta, Google. The window to build this is right now.

Compensation

Competitive base salary, performance bonus, and founding-level equity. Numbers are based on your experience. This is the kind of equity that matters if we hit the exit we are building toward.
