Building the Interface to the Future of Game Development
GameFrame AI is transforming game development through natural language AI interaction. We're building the first conversational interface that enables developers - from hobbyists to indie studios - to create professional games by simply describing what they want.
The Challenge : Design and build sophisticated real-time interfaces that seamlessly blend conversational AI with game development workflows, supporting multi-agent coordination, real-time streaming responses, and complex interactive visualizations - all while maintaining sub-second response times for 100+ concurrent users.
The Role
As our Senior Frontend AI Engineer , you'll architect and build the user-facing experience for GameFrame's revolutionary AI platform. You're not just building traditional web UIs - you're creating entirely new interaction patterns that make complex AI agent orchestration and data visualization feel natural and intuitive.
This role requires deep expertise in AI-first frontend architectures and advanced interactive visualizations , where every component is designed around streaming responses, complex data structures, and real-time multi-agent coordination.
What You'll Build
Advanced Conversational AI Interfaces
- Architect CopilotKit-powered split-screen experiences with AI chat (30%) and contextual content (70%)
- Build sophisticated streaming response handlers for token-by-token LLM output with backpressure management
- Implement multi-agent conversation threading where users can interact with specialized agents simultaneously
- Create intelligent conversation branching for exploring different game development approaches

AI-First Design Thinking
You understand that building for AI requires fundamentally different patterns than traditional web development. You think in terms of streaming responses , probabilistic outcomes , and context-aware interfaces .
Complex Visualization Engineering
You have deep experience building custom data visualization systems from scratch, not just using pre-built chart libraries. You understand layout algorithms, performance optimization for thousands of interactive elements, and can implement smooth animations while maintaining 60fps.
Mathematical & Algorithmic Thinking
You can implement graph algorithms , spatial partitioning systems , and collision detection directly in JavaScript. You think computationally about UI problems and can optimize complex rendering operations.
Real-Time Systems Expertise
You've built applications where every millisecond matters . You understand the complexities of WebSocket management, streaming data handling, and maintaining responsive UIs under heavy real-time processing loads.
