The posting

Wayback Labs is a new startup building playful consumer products at the intersection of AI and camera roll.

We're seeking a creative founding designer to join our ~3 person team! We're funded but pre-launch, so truly a ground floor opportunity for the right person.

The iPhone is now 18 years old (!!), and we all have thousands of photos and screenshots—captured over decades—just idling in our camera roll. Previously this was unstructured chaos. But we're using AI vision models to analyze your camera roll and construct a deeply personalized understanding of who you are—and we’re using that to build entirely new categories of personalized software. It's a huge opportunity.

Wayback Labs was started by Jonathan Wegener, who previously founded Timehop (the company that invented digital nostalgia, 25M+ users, acquired). He also ran the Memories product at Snapchat, and has spent the last decade obsessed with how photos shape memory and identity. He's an experienced founder who has started three companies, raised $17M, hired dozens of people, and worked at Snapchat and Tinder 👻🔥

About you: 🧠 excels at visual design, animation, brand personality, graphic design (perhaps you have an agency/branding background, or started as an artist) 🛠️ some experience with UI, UX & prototyping 📱 designed consumer mobile apps 🎥 worked with rich media: photos, video, camera, audio (perhaps you're ex-snapchat, ex-instagram, ex-clubhouse, ex-tiktok etc) 👨‍💻 plugged into modern design trends, memes, and TikTok culture 🚀 you've shipped your own side projects 📍 Located in California (SF/LA/SD) or willing to spend a week per month here

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
