Why work at Higgsfield AI?

Higgsfield AI is the fastest-scaling generative AI company in history, hitting $1B in annual revenue run rate, 30M+ users worldwide, 6M+ generations per day, and powering 390 of Fortune 500 brands.

We're building at the absolute frontier of AI-powered video creation and next-generation creative tools. Joining Higgsfield means becoming part of a high-impact team shaping the future of AI-native experiences, at a company that isn't just moving fast, but rewriting what fast looks like.

About the Role

We’re looking for a new-generation AI builder — someone between a software engineer, prompt engineer, automation hacker, and product innovator.

This is not a traditional SWE role.

You’ll work on AI-native products, internal agents, automations, and experimental workflows powered by the latest frontier models, open-source tooling, MCP ecosystems, and multimodal systems.

You should be the kind of person who constantly explores what’s happening in AI:

• new agent frameworks

• open-source tooling

• AI video & creative workflows

• MCP servers

• coding agents

• automation stacks

• multimodal systems

• new product patterns emerging every week

You don’t just follow trends — you prototype them.

Who We’re Looking For

You might be a fit if you:

• Are a hustler who ships fast and experiments constantly

• Have strong intuition for building new AI-native products and workflows

• Stay deeply plugged into the AI ecosystem and emerging tooling

• Understand how modern AI agents actually work under the hood

• Can automate things quickly and creatively

• Think in systems and workflows, not just prompts

• Have strong product taste and curiosity

• Thrive in fast-moving, ambiguous environments

• Learn new tools obsessively fast
  

Must-Have Skills

• Experience with JavaScript or Python (ideally both)

• Comfortable building prototypes, automations, and internal tools

• Understanding of:

  • LLMs

  • tokens/context windows

  • APIs & CLI tooling

  • MCP ecosystems

  • agent frameworks

  • tool use & orchestration

  • RAG / retrieval concepts

• Experience using modern AI coding workflows and AI-native tooling

• Ability to quickly turn ideas into working demos or systems
  

Big Plus

• Experience with ML or training/inference infrastructure

• Experience with multimodal or video-generation tooling

• Familiarity with open-source AI ecosystems

• Experience building agentic systems or autonomous workflows

• Strong vibe-coding energy
  

What You’ll Work On

• Build AI-native internal and external products

• Prototype new agentic workflows and automation systems

• Explore frontier AI tooling and identify new product opportunities

• Experiment with multimodal generation systems

• Build automations across engineering, creative, and operational workflows

• Work closely with product, infra, and research teams

• Help the company stay ahead of where the AI market is going

The deal

• Top-of-market compensation in USD.

• Small team, high autonomy, and outsized impact.

• On-site role in our Almaty office (we will relocate you from anywhere).
