Work inside the experiment.

About Us

We are an AI interactive entertainment startup turning short dramas and story content from something you watch into something you play. Our team comes from Stanford, Google, and TikTok, and we have raised close to $10M. Our product is live in beta: AI adapts a viral short drama into a playable, branching interactive game in under an hour. We are redefining interactive entertainment on three layers: video-native interactive storytelling (cinematic live-action quality, not game-engine graphics — every choice changes the story), an AI-native creation pipeline (script breakdown, branch design, and final cut are 90% done by AI agents — creators just bring a great story), and TikTok-style distribution feeding a 'Roblox for interactive content' where anyone who can tell a story can publish an interactive drama.

What You'll Do

• Own product end-to-end for our AI-native interactive content / UGC game platform, across the consumer experience and the AI creation tools.
• Define the roadmap and north-star metrics with the founders; build the data and growth loop (instrumentation, funnels, retention, A/B).
• Design the two-sided ecosystem: content supply-demand matching, creator incentives and revenue share, community and remix loops.
• Translate frontier AI capabilities (generation, agents, world models) into experiences users can feel.

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years in consumer products spanning at least two of: games, UGC platforms, content communities, creator tools; real 0-to-1 experience.
• Hands-on growth experience with first-hand judgment on retention, monetization, and virality.
• AI-native daily workflow; deep gamer or heavy consumer of short drama / interactive fiction.
• Working-level English; startup pace and ownership.

Nice to Have: Roblox/UEFN-type ecosystem experience, short-drama globalization, AI companion products, US/SEA growth.

We offer competitive cash + meaningful early equity.

What You'll Do

• Build our content supply engine from zero: in-house PGC incubation, seed creator acquisition, then a self-sustaining UGC ecosystem.
• Recruit, segment, and grow seed creators; design and validate incentive structures (guarantees, rev-share, contests, traffic boosts).
• Close the loop between creators and our AI creation tools: templates, learning curve vs. creative freedom.
• Set content quality bars, run co-creation programs, and build supply-side analytics (creator funnel, supply-demand match, retention).

What We're Looking For

• 3+ years in UGC game / creator ecosystems: Roblox, Fortnite UEFN, Minecraft, Eggy Party, PUBG Mobile (Oasis) creator programs, TikTok Gaming, or similar.
• First-hand cold-start experience — you can articulate what YOU made happen, not just what you witnessed.
• Deep understanding of creator motivation and economics; strong content taste; data-driven.
• Working-level English preferred (global creator community).

Nice to Have: overseas creator networks (Discord/MCN/KOC), being a creator yourself (maps/mods/interactive fiction with shipped work), creator economy design.

Remote · Americas (Pacific Time overlap preferred) · Founding Team

Vizzy Labs is building an interactive entertainment platform for global audiences. We believe the next Detroit: Become Human, The Invisible Guardian, or breakout interactive narrative won’t necessarily come from a 300-person studio. It may come from a small group of exceptional creators empowered by AI agents.

Our team includes builders from TikTok, Google, Stanford, and leading North American AAA studios—including veteran narrative designers from major franchise titles. We’re backed by GSR Ventures, with a seed round of over RMB 40M.

We’re looking for a Senior Game Agent Engineer to build the core engine behind AI-native interactive storytelling: transforming a creator’s adaptation workflow from days into under an hour—while producing content that is genuinely ready to ship, not just AI-generated drafts that require a full rewrite.

What you’ll build

• Multi-stage narrative agent pipelines

Design and implement agent workflows spanning IP decomposition, worldbuilding, character design, story structure, branching logic, and final scripts—with human confirmation gates throughout so creators stay in control.

• Structured interactive narrative generation

Enable LLMs to reliably generate production-ready branching narrative schemas: nodes, choices, game states, variables, conditions, and converging storylines—not just prose.

• Narrative quality evaluation systems

Build measurable evaluation frameworks for plot logic, character consistency, meaningful player choice, pacing, emotional payoff, and monetization opportunities.

• Context engineering for long-form stories

Solve how narrative bibles, prior events, character states, and unresolved clues are preserved across long, multi-turn generation workflows.

• Codifying creative intuition

Work closely with game designers and writers to translate tacit narrative expertise—pacing, hooks, catharsis, tension, payoff, and restraint—into agent-executable processes and quality criteria.

• End-to-end product delivery

Own the path from prompts and pipelines to creator-facing tools. You can move across backend, frontend, and product surfaces when needed.

You may be a great fit if you have

• Strong hands-on experience building LLM applications, including agent orchestration, tool/function calling, structured outputs, stateful multi-turn workflows, and eval systems.

• A real understanding of game design, especially gameplay loops, narrative pacing, branching design, progression, or monetization.

• Full-stack ability and a bias toward shipping usable creator tools—not just prototypes.

• High standards for AI-generated content. You can tell the difference between “technically plausible” and “actually good,” and know how to turn that gap into engineering metrics.

• Deep familiarity with interactive narrative games: visual novels, interactive films, CRPGs, text adventures, or narrative-driven games.

• Experience in one or more of the following:

• Game design transitioning into engineering, or engineers who have worked deeply with designers
• AI story generation, AI NPCs, agent products, or content-generation pipelines
• Core engineering roles at LLM application startups
• Interactive fiction engines, narrative editors, TRPG tools, or dialogue systems

What we offer

• Compensation competitive with top-tier technology and game companies

• Meaningful founding-team equity

• Remote-first role, with collaboration centered on US Pacific Time

• Opportunities for travel and potential placement in North America

• A chance to define how the next generation of interactive entertainment gets made

If you’re excited by the idea of turning narrative craft into a creative system that empowers individual creators, we’d love to talk.

Vizzy Labs is an AI-powered interactive entertainment platform. We’re looking for a creative, social media savvy intern to turn AI short dramas into engaging clips for TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and X.

You’ll find compelling moments, edit short-form videos, write captions, and publish content. We provide the strategy, raw footage, and posting guidelines.

We’re looking for someone who:

• Is based in the US and available to start immediately.
• Has experience editing short-form content and creating content for or managing faceless accounts.
• Understands hooks, trends, and what makes people stop scrolling and engage.
• Ideally has experience with drama or entertainment content.

Part-time: 2–3 hours per day

To apply, send a brief introduction, examples of accounts or posts you’ve worked on, and your availability.

**Type:** Freelance contract, remote, paid per finished project. US-based preferred.

**About us**

Vizzy Labs (vizzylabs.ai, venture-backed) builds Taplot (taplot.ai), an interactive short-series platform. The episodes are AI-generated and the player's choices drive the story. Creators use our AI agent to turn a story into a playable series: no camera, no actors, no game engine.

**What you'll do**

• Pitch and write interactive stories in the Episode / Choices / Chapters tradition: a strong hook, a clear trope, choices that change how the player feels, and a cliffhanger that earns the next episode.
• Use our AI agent to make each story playable end to end: characters, scenes, dialogue, branches and endings. You direct; the agent generates the video.
• Play your own build like a player, find the confusing beats and the dead choices, and fix them before you hand it in.
• Give clear notes on other stories: what you didn't understand, what's broken, what works. Your notes also teach our AI what a good story feels like.

**What we're looking for**

• You have finished at least one branching story that real readers played: an Episode or Dorian story, a ChoiceScript or Twine game, a visual novel, an otome route, or interactive fan fiction. Finished matters more than follower count.
• You know why the romance, revenge, forbidden-love and power-fantasy tropes work, and you can write a story that is a little over the top and still makes people play on.
• You like trying new tools. You have used ChatGPT, Claude or AI image / video tools in your own work, or you are eager to.
• You care about results. We pay for a finished story that meets the bar, not for hours.

**Nice to have**

• Writing credits at Episode, Pixelberry (Choices), Crazy Maple (Chapters), Dorian, Pocket Gems, or a short-drama app such as ReelShort or DramaBox.
• A small, active readership on Wattpad, AO3, itch.io or Instagram.
• Game design, screenwriting or short-video editing experience.

**How it works**

• Send us one or two stories you have finished (links are fine).
• Trial: we give you your own workspace and a generation budget, and you make one short episode with our agent.
• If the trial lands, we commission full stories at a fixed fee per story, paid once the story is accepted.

Employment Type

Independent contractor, near full-time during active productions

Compensation

$50–$100/hour guaranteed base, plus revenue share and breakout bonus. You keep your copyright.

About Vizzy Labs

Vizzy Labs is a VC-backed San Francisco studio founded by Stanford and Google alumni, building the future of interactive drama: short-form stories where the viewer decides what happens next. Minutes long, watched on a phone, where the visual hook has to land in the first three seconds.

AI tooling made it cheap to generate a lot of footage. It did not make it easy to generate footage that looks authored. Closing that gap is this job.

About the Role

You set the look of a series through concept art and keyframes, then hold the quality bar as that look moves through AI video generation. You are the taste layer — the person who can say exactly why a shot feels flat (staging, lens, value structure, cut rhythm) and then fix it, by repainting a frame, reshaping the approach, or directing the generation differently.

Senior, hands-on craft role. You'll direct, and you'll also make. Not a prompt-writing role.

What You'll Do

• Develop environment and mood concept art that establishes each series' world, palette, and lighting language
• Produce keyframes and shot mood frames that give the production team an unambiguous visual target
• Partner closely with a narrative designer — story beats and visual language get built together, not handed off
• Review AI-generated video from internal and external teams; give precise notes on composition, blocking, lighting continuity, performance, and edit rhythm
• Get hands-on in generation and iteration, and hand-correct output where generative tools fall short
• Write down what "good" means: aesthetic standards, cinematic language guidelines, reference libraries
• Coach our internal AI content creators so quality compounds across projects

Qualifications

• Multiple years of professional experience in film/TV, game or animation cinematics, advertising, or an adjacent creative industry — shipped work, real deadlines, real stakeholders
• Real command of visual and audiovisual language: composition, staging, color and value, lighting, lens behavior, continuity, and how a cut carries emotion
• Strong traditional art fundamentals — you can draw and paint, and can hand-correct a generated image instead of rerolling and hoping
• Working fluency with generative image and video tools. We're tool-agnostic; we judge output, not software
• Range across visual styles, plus the judgment to know which style serves which story
• Experience art-directing or mentoring other artists — a meaningful part of this role is raising the team's bar, not only your own output
• Clear written communication and feedback other artists can act on
• Able to work autonomously across time zones with async review cycles

Preferred

Vertical or short-form experience; custom pipeline work (node-based workflows, character consistency, fine-tuning); cinematography, editing, or previs background; Chinese-language ability (not required).

Compensation and Terms

We structure this role around three commitments:

• Guaranteed base pay — $50–$100/hour. Set by experience and demonstrated ability, and paid for every hour you work regardless of how a title performs. Your rate moves up as your work proves out. This is your floor, not your ceiling.
• Upside on top of base — revenue share and breakout bonus. You receive a share of revenue on the titles you shape, plus an additional performance bonus when a title becomes a hit. This is added to your hourly pay, never in place of it.
• You keep your copyright. Narrative designers and artists retain copyright in the work they create — we take the license we need to produce and distribute it, and your creative output remains yours. This is unusual in this industry, and it's deliberate: we think the people who make the work should own it.

Independent contractor agreement; hourly billing against agreed scope, invoiced on a set cycle.

Hiring Process

Apply through our careers page with your portfolio and resume — concept art and keyframes are what we most want to see.

Apply: https://reelcraft.art/career

Shortlisted candidates are invited to a paid trial that mirrors the real job: pair with one of our narrative designers on an actual scene, set its visual direction, and work with the video team to push a finished clip as far as it can go. We pay for your time and give honest feedback either way.

Vizzy Labs is an equal opportunity employer. We evaluate on craft and judgment.
