Video Software Application Builder

The Project We've built a web app that automates video production. It's live, in production, and producing real videos across multiple channels but contains a HUGE amount of bugs / failures / inconsistencies. Think of it as an automated video factory: you feed it a topic, and the system researches, writes a script, generates voiceover, creates/finds visuals, assembles everything with FFmpeg, and outputs a finished video with thumbnails. Tech Stack - Backend: Node.js, Express, TypeScript - Frontend: React 18, Vite, Zustand, Tailwind CSS - Database: Postgress + Prisma ORM What You'd Work On - Building/debugging pipeline steps and features - Improving API integrations and error handling - Frontend UI improvements - Performance optimization of video processing pipelines - Building a queue/orchestration system for parallel pipeline runs - Stabilizing the system / preparing for huge work What We're Looking For Must-have: - Strong TypeScript + Node.js - React experience Big plus: - FFmpeg knowledge - Prisma ORM experience - Remotion or video processing background How We Work - Communication via chat (English or Dutch) - Development happens directly on the server and GitHub - We use AI coding tools (Claude Code) to speed up implementation - Features are specced out before building - Test on staging, then merge to production - Direct, no-nonsense communication - Clean Code Compensation Negotiable.
