About ArtCraft

We're building an open source AI image and video crafting tool, aiming to take on the likes of Adobe, Figma, Blender, and more. The tool is similar to AI aggregator tools like FreePik, Higgsfield, etc., but we're making our tools open source and we undercut middle-men aggregators with strong BYOK / 'login with' components. Our founding team consists of filmmakers, VFX engineers, and people passionate about the field.

Job Description

We’re seeking a Backend Engineer focused on Rust and MySQL to help build the core services for ArtCraft. The role involves developing backend services in Rust (Actix Web, SQLx), contributing to distributed systems, and supporting open source routing, model hosting, and model inference utilities. Our desktop app uses Rust with Tauri and we’re exploring a fully-native UX with Bevy. Experience with Rust + MySQL + Backend development is essential. You’ll collaborate with artists and engineers to deliver maintainable, readable code and help scale our AI tooling used by artists, filmmakers, musicians, and creatives. Remote work is available globally with onsite options in the SF Bay Area and Atlanta, GA.
