About Krea

At Krea, we're dedicated to making AI intuitive and controllable for creatives. Our mission is to build tools that empower human creativity, not replace it. We believe AI is a new medium that allows us to express ourselves through various formats—text, images, video, sound, and even 3D. We're building better, smarter, and more controllable tools to harness this medium.

We’re backed by Bain Capital Ventures, A16Z, Abstract Ventures, Pebblebed and many others. If you're passionate about pushing the boundaries of AI and empowering human creativity, we'd love to hear from you.

We're seeking a skilled design engineer with an eye for great design and hands-on experience building interactive, responsive web applications. Your work will directly enhance how millions of users create with AI.

Our culture:

• We work full-time and in-person at our waterfront office in San Francisco.

• We believe that demonstrated interest in the creative space is key: our team includes musicians, designers, visual artists and more.

What you'll do:

• Design and develop new interfaces that integrate the latest research we're developing.

• Rapid prototyping of designs so our closed community of artists can test new ideas.

• Optimize front-end performance to deliver smooth and intuitive user experiences.

• Collaborate with engineering and design teams to ensure consistency across the platform.

Example experiences and skills we're looking for:

• Proficiency with frameworks like React or Svelte.

• You have a curated portfolio showcasing design projects and your ability to create elegant digital experiences.

• Proven work that shows tasteful UI interactions and attention to detail.

• Ability to collaborate effectively with designers and back-end/full-stack engineers.

• Ideally you're familiar with AI-driven creative tools.

What we offer:

• Openness to sponsoring International candidates (e.g STEM OPT, OPT, H1B, O1, E3)

• Work alongside a world class developing the future of AI tooling

• Significant impact on Krea’s market presence and growth

• Competitive compensation (75% percentile of market rates) with significant equity upside
