Overview
At Chaotix AI, we’re reinventing how the next generation creates and interacts with digital content. Imagine a world where a teenager’s fleeting thought can become an interactive, playable experience in seconds—where TikTok meets real-time, AI-powered game engines. That’s the world we’re building.
We’re an early-stage, high-velocity team on a mission to make creativity feel like magic. Our platform lets users generate, remix, and share interactive experiences with the ease of sending a message—redefining internet creativity for Gen Z and beyond.
The OpportunityWe’re looking for a founding Django developer to help architect and scale the backbone of Chaotix AI. This is a hands-on, high-agency role at the edge of creativity and real-time AI.
You’ll be one of the first engineers on the team—designing core infrastructure, shaping product direction, and building systems that power a radically new interface for internet-native creation.
If you thrive in zero-to-one environments, crave ownership, and want to help define a new creative medium—this is your playground.
What You’ll BuildGame Engine Infrastructure
Real-time integrations between generative AI pipelines (image, text, code) and game rendering logic
Backend Systems
Scalable, performant APIs in Django to support creation, sharing, multiplayer, and live collaboration
Infra at Scale
Firebase for real-time data sync and Celery for async compute pipelines
Mobile-Optimized Web
Lightweight, responsive frontends in Next.js that feel magical even on low-end phones
Internal Tools
Game editing UI, analytics dashboards, and ML-powered moderation systems
Tech StackBackend: Python, Django, Celery
Frontend: TypeScript, React, Next.js
Infra: Firebase, GCP
AI/ML: Hugging Face, OpenAI APIs, LangChain (nice to have)
You Might Be a Fit If You…Own the Stack
3+ years building production systems across the backend, with experience pushing code to real users
Build Fast, Think Deep
You ship MVPs quickly but care deeply about product craft and performance
Are Startup-Native
You’ve built in small teams and thrive with autonomy, ambiguity, and speed
Are AI-Curious
You’re excited about generative AI and want to build creative tools, not just ML models
Think Like a Founder
You want to work closely with the CEO and help shape not just code, but culture and company direction
