Job Description

Talon AI is building the first AI-powered film pre-production platform — a
tool that reads your screenplay, asks intelligent producer-style questions,
and auto-generates budgets, DOODs, and shooting schedules in minutes. Talon AI
brings together cutting-edge AI and deep film industry knowledge to re-imagine
how movies get made.

Our mission: Automate the busywork so creators can focus on storytelling.

We’re a small, fast-moving founding team combining Silicon Valley tech with
Hollywood practicality — and we’re looking for exceptional engineers ready to
build something the industry has never seen.

**What You’ll Do**

Architect and build the full Talon AI platform from scratch — backend +
frontend.

Develop the screenplay ingestion and AI-parsing pipeline (LLMs + structured
data).

Integrate OpenAI / Anthropic APIs; design scalable schemas for scenes,
locations, and budgets.

Implement user auth, billing (Stripe), and export endpoints.

Collaborate directly with the founder on product roadmap and growth strategy.

Recruit and mentor future engineers.

**Ideal Stack**

Frontend: Next.js, React, Tailwind
Backend: Python (FastAPI / Flask), PostgreSQL / Supabase
AI / ML: OpenAI API, LangChain, Hugging Face
Infra: AWS / Render / Vercel

**Why Join**

Be the technical founder of a best-in-industry product.
Build creative-industry AI that impacts real filmmakers.
Equity + autonomy: you’ll define the stack, culture, and technical future of
Talon AI.
