About the role Synthesia videos are becoming two-way experiences.

Our Video Agents team is building the next generation of interactive learning - moving beyond passive video into AI-driven conversations surveys and knowledge checks that learners actually engage with.

Think: a sales rep completing a roleplay with an AI avatar a learner answering quiz questions mid-video a manager seeing who's ready to go live with customers.

As a Frontend Engineer on this team you'll build directly inside our editor - the core creative surface where content creators design these experiences - and extend our video player where learners consume them.

You're not just adding features; you're defining new types of AI agents from scratch: configurable interactive and deeply integrated into Synthesia's platform end-to-end.

What you'll work on - Building new agent types inside our editor - survey agents knowledge-check agents quiz flows - that creators configure and learners interact with in real time - Owning features end-to-end: from the editor UI through app state and logic down into the player experience - Working primarily in our editor (a large complex React + TypeScript application) with some work in our video player - Collaborating closely with product and design to shape what these new interaction patterns look like - and pushing back when something isn't right - Making small backend changes when needed to unblock frontend work What we're looking for - 4–6+ years of frontend engineering experience primarily TypeScript and React and backend knowledge to take features end to end with NodeJS - Experience working on a large complex web application - ideally something where users build configure or create: an editor design tool no-code/low-code platform workflow builder or similar - Comfortable owning frontend features independently from UI through state management and application logic - Familiar with real-time interactions (e.g.

WebSockets live collaboration patterns) - Strong product mindset - you think about what users actually need not just what was specced Nice to have - Experience with AI-powered features agent interfaces or LLM-integrated products - Observability experience - monitoring and improving frontend performance using tools like Datadog Sentry or Grafana - Complex state management in large frontend applications WHY JOIN US?
