Description
We are building AI to simulate the world through merging art and science. We believe that world models are at the frontier of progress in artificial intelligence. Language models alone won’t solve the world’s hardest problems – robotics, disease, scientific discovery. Real progress requires models that experience the world and learn from their mistakes, the same way that humans do. And this kind of trial and error can be massively accelerated when done in simulation, rather than in the real world. World models offer the most clear path to general-purpose simulation, changing how stories are told, how scientific progress is made and how the next frontiers of humanity are reached. Our team consists of creative, open minded, caring and ambitious people who are determined to change the world. We aspire to continuously build impossible things and our ability to do so relies on building an incredible team. If you are driven to do the same, we'd love to hear from you. ABOUT THE ROLE *Open to hiring remote across North America — we also have offices in NYC, San Francisco, and Seattle We're building something unusual: an in-house creative studio producing campaign work, bespoke content, product education, events, and proper advertising, all under one roof. We're looking for a Creative Leader to oversee all output from concept through execution, reporting directly to the CCO and acting as day-to-day creative leader of the department. This role owns brand and product campaigns, sets art direction, writes or directs copy, and leads a team of copywriters, art directors, brand designers, and video producers. This role requires strength across both copy and art direction. Not equally deep in both but able to concept in either lane and give sharp, timely feedback across all creative surfaces. You'll report to, and at times collaborate directly with the CCO as day-to-day creative leaders of the department. That means overseeing product assets while carving out space for brand platform thinking, developing a point of view on what Runway means culturally, and making work that doesn't just inform but makes people feel something about the company and the future it's building. WHAT YOU’LL DO - Develop creative concepts, campaigns, and brand platform work across all channels and formats - Provide creative direction and oversight across the full department — your creative authority extends beyond your direct reports - Manage and develop a growing team: writers, art directors, designers, video editors, developers and social - Concept and create key pieces yourself when the work demands it - you are a “player / coach” - Set art direction and copy direction for campaigns, brand, web, product, video, events, and social - Work with product marketing to translate briefs into powerful creative ideas - Oversee photo and video shoots alongside the Studios team and freelance production crews - Brief and manage freelance talent and agency partners during campaign surges - Help establish creative processes, review cadences, and quality standards as the department scales - Present concepts and creative work to senior stakeholders with clarity and conviction WHAT YOU’LL NEED - 8+ years in creative roles, with significant time at agencies or in-house teams that think like agencies - A portfolio that shows conceptual range across both copy and art direction — big ideas that work across mediums - Someone who is actively utilizing AI in their creative process today - Proven ability to direct and elevate writers, art directors and designers - Incredibly strong art direction sensibilities, deep knowledge of industry defining work and sharp instincts for language and tone - Experience leading and mentoring creatives, not just directing work - Comfort with ambiguity — we're building the plane while flying it, and you'll help define how this department operates.
