We we are looking for:

We’re hiring a Social Media Effects Developer who combines creative instinct with technical skill and a strong understanding of social media trends. This is a remote, project-based role that spans 3 to 6 short-term engagements throughout 2025, each lasting 20–40 hours.

You’ll be building interactive effects, filters, and short-form visual experiences using a proprietary node-based system. This platform relies on visual scripting, so you’ll need to understand programming concepts like loops, conditionals, and variables, but you’ll be applying them in a node-based environment rather than traditional code.

The ideal candidate is already experimenting with platforms like Snapchat, Instagram, TikTok, or YouTube Shorts, and is confident in building interactive experiences with a mix of creative and technical tools. 

Key Responsibilities:

  • Collaborate with creative teams to turn briefs into interactive social filters, mini-games, or video-based effects
  • Develop and present working prototypes based on written or verbal concepts, iterating with motion designers, editors, and producers
  • Build clean, modular, and scalable node logic inside our client’s proprietary tool
  • Identify bugs or tool limitations and work with the internal product team to report and document findings
  • Stay current with major AR/social platform trends, effects, and aesthetic styles.

Qualifications:

  • Direct experience building effects using at least one of the following:
    • Lens Studio (Snapchat)
    • Spark AR (Meta/Instagram)
    • Effect House (TikTok)
    • Effect Maker (YouTube Shorts)
  • Background in game development, creative coding, or interactive media
  • 1+ years of experience with scripting languages such as JavaScript, Python, or VEX
  • 1+ years of hands-on experience with node-based visual scripting tools (e.g., TouchDesigner, Houdini, Unreal Blueprints, Blender Geometry Nodes, etc.)
  • Portfolio that demonstrates strong technical logic, creative interactivity, and working knowledge of social AR
  • Comfortable working independently and as part of a fast-paced creative team
    Compensation & Benefits:
    This is a project-based role that has a salary of $90-$105/hour USD.
