We're a U.S.-based AI video production company looking for a skilled developer to build an automated video production pipeline. This is a real project with clear scope and a path to long-term ongoing work.
The Project:
We produce AI-generated marketing videos for real estate agents. Currently this involves manual editing and multiple AI platform subscriptions. We want to automate the pipeline so that a script + reference photos go in, and a near-finished video comes out — with human review at key checkpoints.
Three phases:
Script-to-storyboard engine with API-based image and video generation (~$2,000 / ?115,000)
Self-hosted generation on RunPod + ComfyUI — batch processing, avatar training, lip sync (~$5,000-$7,000 / ?285,000-?400,000)
Automated video assembly, templates, Premiere Pro integration (~$5,000-$8,000 / ?285,000-?460,000)
We have: Structured training data (342 video cuts in JSON), a partially built Next.js app, existing API integrations, clear technical specifications for each phase.
Skills Required:
Strong Python (async programming, API integration, queue systems)
ComfyUI experience (building workflows, using the API, custom nodes)
RunPod or GPU cloud deployment (Docker, persistent storage, model management)
FLUX / Stable Diffusion (ControlNet, IP-Adapter, LoRA training, AnimateDiff)
FFmpeg or MoviePy for programmatic video editing
Next.js / TypeScript (for extending the UI)
Big Plus:
Lip sync models (MuseTalk, SadTalker, Wav2Lip)
AI coding tools in your workflow (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot)
Understanding of video production (editing concepts, timelines, transitions)
What we're looking for in a person:
Self-directed problem solver — we give you the spec, you figure out the implementation
Strong communicator — async updates, clear documentation, honest about blockers
Uses AI to work faster — we're an AI company, we expect our developer to leverage AI tools
Portfolio required — show us ComfyUI workflows, ML pipelines, or automation projects you've built
Compensation:
Phase 1: ?115,000 ($2,000 USD) fixed project
Full scope: ?690,000-?975,000 ($12,000-$17,000 USD) across all phases
If transitioning to ongoing: ?60,000-?120,000/month ($1,000-$2,000/month) depending on hours and skill level
Open to full-time or project-based — discuss in interview
