note: we're in hustle mode. we're shipping as fast as we can. this is not the kind of job you can cruise and 9-5. only apply if you want to grind, work late nights, and be part of a generational company. We are an onsite company (SF), expect a big house where the founders live, free food, beers and cool team activities.
⁉️ What’s it going to be like ⁉️
In Shackleton's famous words: “People wanted for hazardous journey. Low wages, bitter cold, long hours of complete darkness. Safe return doubtful. Honour and recognition in the event of success.”
Why tho?
Risk + Excitement + Hard Work == Startup. Sure, you could join a big company and make decent money but it's that constant thrill of hope, the addictive energy that makes Robert and I come back to startups over and over again 😵💫
To thrive here, you’ve got to embrace this delulu universe, where the victories give us hope and the failures make us want it even more. Yes, we work late hours and often deal with some bullshit, but you'll be part of something bigger and even more, you will have a direct impact on EVERYTHING.
If you're ready to roll up your sleeves, identify your own features to build, and find your own problems to solve, then come on in. Grab a beer and a slice of pizza, and dive into creating the future of natural language programming and AI agents. Together, we'll revolutionize the way we work. Green Light. 🟢
***Wordware** is a prompt-first programming language that can be used by non-developers (AI Engineers). We merge concepts like loops, logic and functions from the world of classical programming with the non-deterministic nature of Language Models. It’s exposed in a web-hosted IDE with features like sharing, forking and API deployment.*

Try some prompts on app.wordware.ai/explore ← This is important and it is expected that you should have played around with wordware before you apply
wordware brings structure, joy, and trust to human/AI collaboration.
we make AI app development as simple as writing a document. If you can explain your application in words then you can build it with wordware.
our natural language editor is enhanced with powerful features from the world of programming; conditional statements, loops, functions, multi-agent communication. you can build and test AI flows instantly, see results in real-time, iterate fast, deploy in a single click. no code required!
with access to every public AI model and thousands of API integrations, you can design truly context-aware AI applications and agents. wordware takes the transformative power of AI, connects it with the tools you already use, and builds it seamlessly into your life and work.
p.s. pls don't use zero prompt ai in your answers, we get enough of these to know immediately 😂
tl;dr we need someone who can turn complex ai concepts into compelling narratives. think johnny harris meets apple keynotes, but for developer tools. you'll be crafting the story of how ai development is becoming accessible to everyone, and making it look damn good while you're at it.
the actual challenge: we're democratizing ai development, but explaining this stuff is hard. really hard. we need someone who can make "multi-agent communication with type system enforcement" sound not just understandable, but exciting. someone who can show, not just tell, how wordware is changing the game.
the bigger picture: we're not just talking to traditional developers. we're reaching the next 500 million people who will be "coding" with plain english - lawyers, designers, product managers, founders, and domain experts of all kinds. our content needs to thread an impossible needle: deep enough for engineers, accessible enough for everyone else, and compelling enough to show both groups why this matters.
what you'll actually be doing:
owning end-to-end educational video production:
creating our core content series:
building our flagship podcast:
leading creative direction:
you should probably have:
serious video production/editing chops (this is crucial)
deep expertise in after effects & premiere
strong motion graphics capabilities
knack for making technical concepts visual
comfort behind the camera and mic
your background might include:
_ running your own YT channel _
video production at dev tools/tech companies
documentary or educational video production
experience at places like vox/verge/wired
motion design for technical products
technical education content
podcast production
real talk:
we're in sf, you need to be too - no remote for now
you'll have big budget for equipment you need
expect to both shoot and edit (especially early on)
long hours in production and post
you'll be building the creative team from scratch
deadlines are tight - sometimes you'll need to turn around videos in hours
you need to be technical enough to understand our product (we're not kidding)
building a media brand takes time, but we're in it for the long haul
pizza, beer, and crossbow competitions are part of the deal
your stories will shape how the next generation thinks about building with ai
if you've ever:
dreamed of making technical videos that don't put people to sleep
found yourself explaining complex concepts through motion
wished technical tutorials looked more like netflix docs
wanted to define the visual language for a new category
...we should talk.
ps: we're backed by spark capital, felicis, and y combinator ($30m seed — biggest out of YC round) but we still work like a seed startup. and yes, the office will have a sauna and be 30m from the sea 🥵
