Product / Full-Stack Engineer

ABOUT CASCADE

Cascade is an AI-native, end-to-end filmmaking platform, built by filmmakers, for filmmakers. In one seamless, web-based environment, creators can go from first idea through script, storyboard, character generation, scene assembly and final edit – without leaving the platform.

Our Open Beta is live, and we've moved from launch mode into growth – building a roster of creative partners and an audience of independent filmmakers and directors who are making the case for our platform.

The creator economy is $250 billion and growing at 22% a year. Over 50 million filmmakers and creators are drowning in fragmented tools and broken workflows. Cascade replaces the stack.

WHAT WE OFFER

Competitive salary benchmarked against early-stage London tech.

A genuinely exciting product to direct for – built by filmmakers, for filmmakers, at the frontier of AI.

Remote working.

A team culture built on craft, speed and ambition. We take the work seriously, not ourselves.

The chance to define Cascade's creative voice and build the function as we grow.

OUR PRINCIPLES

We hire people who share these values:

We build from scratch, we do not maintain the status quo: Builder mindset

Everything we do is in service of the storytellers using our platform: Creator-first

Speed matters, and so does quality - we do not sacrifice one for the other: Move fast, ship well

We say what we think, give feedback clearly, and expect the same in return: Honest and direct

We use AI at every level, including in how we work and expect our team to do the same: AI-native

OUR BRAND VALUES

Story first. Always. Every decision exists in service of the story. The technology is the means. The story is the thing. Every product decision, every design choice, every line of copy exists to serve one purpose - getting great stories made.

Democratise great filmmaking. Talent is everywhere. Opportunity isn't. Cascade exists to level the playing field - so the best ideas get made regardless of budget, backing or postcode.

Supercharge the human. Don't replace them. Storytelling is an art. AI is a tool, not a creative director. The best work comes from people with vision, instinct and an understanding of performance, pacing and story. Cascade is designed to supercharge that talent - not replace it.

Slick by design. Relentless by nature. Cascade is built to be powerful, intuitive and genuinely easy to use. And we believe things can always be better, so we'll never stop listening, improving and working to support the people using Cascade.
