Runway

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 We’re looking for a Product Engineer to join our team and help us build cutting-edge, AI-powered video creation and collaboration tools. Rather than specialists, we’re seeking curiosity-driven engineers who are thoughtful problem solvers and thrive in fast-paced, high-ownership environments. Our engineering team is highly collaborative and works on a wide variety of exciting challenges, including developing new interfaces for AI content creation, building LLM-powered features and conversational experiences, and deploying cutting-edge computer vision and generative models to production.

Our API endpoints for user and media management are written in TypeScript and Node.js and deployed as containerized services on AWS ECS Fargate. We leverage AI APIs to power advanced generative capabilities. WHAT YOU’LL DO - Create rich multimedia interfaces using the cutting-edge of the latest AI video generation models Gen-4.5 and Aleph 2.0 - Build end-to-end full-stack AI-powered product features — designing and developing both frontend experiences and backend systems, including authoring server-side processes and APIs that power our generative AI tools - Design and implement LLM-powered features and conversational interfaces - Partner with a world-class engineering team pushing the boundaries of creativity and content creation on the browser - Take on new challenges across the Frontend stack to implement product features for Runway’s machine learning-based generative AI tools - Improve the performance, reliability, and code quality of our codebases WHAT YOU’LL NEED - 5+ years of industry experience in a software engineering role, ideally full-stack focused - Demonstrated fluency in one or more programming languages, including but not limited to JavaScript/TypeScript - Experience building with third-party AI APIs (e.g., chatbots, LLM integrations) - Experience in architecting production-ready systems and familiarity with debugging and profiling tools - Ability to rapidly prototype solutions and iterate on them with tight product deadlines - Humility and open-mindedness; at Runway, we love to learn from one another Runway strives to recruit and retain exceptional talent from diverse backgrounds while ensuring pay equity for our team. Our salary ranges are based on competitive market rates for our size, stage and industry, and salary is just one part of the overall compensation package we provide. There are many factors that go into salary determinations, including relevant experience, skill level and qualifications assessed during the interview process, and maintaining internal equity with peers on the team. The range shared below is a general expectation for the function as posted, but we are also open to considering candidates who may be more or less experienced than outlined in the job description. In this case, we will communicate any updates in the expected salary range. Lastly, the provided range is the expected salary for candidates in the U.S. Outside of those regions, there may be a change in the range, which again, will be communicated to candidates.

ABOUT THE ROLE We're looking for a Product Designer to own the surfaces where Runway turns usage into revenue: pricing, upgrade paths, checkout, and the moments a creator decides Runway is worth paying more for. You'll partner with growth engineering, product, and data to turn goals like ARR growth, expansion revenue, and reduced churn into tested, shipped design changes. WHAT YOU’LL DO - Own growth-critical surfaces (pricing pages, paywalls, upgrade prompts, and checkout flows) from concept through shipped, tested experiments - Turn business goals like ARR growth, expansion revenue, and reduced churn into design hypotheses and interface changes you can test - Design and read A/B tests and other experiments with growth engineering and data, iterating fast on what moves the numbers - Collaborate closely with growth engineering and product to ship experiments quickly and turn winners into permanent product surfaces - Contribute to visual and interaction consistency between growth surfaces and the rest of the product - Set the design direction for Runway's growth surfaces and mentor other designers working in the funnel WHAT YOU’LL NEED - Experience designing product surfaces tied directly to revenue and can point to what moved ARR, conversion, or expansion revenue in a past role - Comfort running and reading quantitative experiments, not just shipping a single "best" design - Experience designing flows, prototypes and high-fidelity UI's for web products, with strong visual design skills - Experience delivering and iterating fast in close collaboration with engineering, and product teams - Ability and flexibility to iterate fast and often - Comfortable picking up unfamiliar parts of the product rather than waiting to be assigned only what you already know - Knowledge and understanding of the creative tool space - Bonus points if you have experience creating functional prototypes using AI tools (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.) - At Runway, it's always a bonus if you have artistic and creative potential (particularly skills with video/audio editing, icon/typography design, illustration, etc.) Runway strives to recruit and retain exceptional talent from diverse backgrounds while ensuring pay equity for our team.

ABOUT THE ROLE *Preferable to have someone near one of our offices in NYC or San Francisco, but open to hiring around the world for the right candidate. Runway Creative is an all-in-one platform giving creators and businesses endless ways to generate and edit video, images, and audio. Our user base spans across professional creatives, as well as business owners and enterprise marketing and merchandising teams that come to Runway to generate videos, ads and other content to promote their products and services. We're hiring a product marketing leader for Runway Creative, leading our audience growth across both self-serve and enterprise. This is not a top-of-funnel-only brand or “launch” role. You'll own the segment, from how we acquire users, to how they activate and convert in-product, to how self-serve teams expand into enterprise relationships. You'll start deeply hands-on as the primary PMM for Creative, and build a team over time as the function scales. This is a builder's role. You'll be defining the discipline, working shoulder-to-shoulder with product, creative, marketing and growth; you'll be measured on the growth of the business (not just on assets shipped or messaging consistency). WHAT YOU'LL DO - Own the segment. Define Runway Creative's audiences: who they are, the jobs they hire Runway for, how they differ across self-serve and enterprise. Ground audiences in hands on customer research, win/loss details, and usage analysis. Turn these insights into a point of view that product and leadership actually build against. - Own positioning and messaging for Creative. Define how Runway Creative is positioned across its audiences and motions, from individual creators to marketing teams to enterprise buyers. Make the story sharp, consistent, and reflective of Runway's ambitious brand, and make sure a professional buyer recognizes themselves in it. - Drive acquisition and conversion, not just awareness. Partner with growth to move the funnel that matters for this segment: acquisition channels and targeting that find more of these users, and the in-product activation, upgrade, and expansion mechanics that convert and retain them. You're comfortable owning metrics and running experiments, not just producing the narrative around them. - Lead pricing and packaging. Co-own with product, finance, and growth how Runway Creative is packaged and priced across individuals, teams, and enterprise. Lead from first-hand experience developing winning pricing and packaging in a PLG setting. - Drive competitive intelligence and response. Track and deeply understand the key players across the AI creative tools market. Turn your market understanding into a living point of view on where we win, where we're exposed, and how we respond, and make it legible to product and leadership. - Partner on enablement. Stand up enablement that fits both motions — in-product surfaces, onboarding, and lifecycle for self-serve; current, credible messaging and proof points for sales and partnerships on the enterprise side (in partnership with a sales enablement team). - Build the team. Start as the primary hands-on driver for creative tools marketing, then hire and lead a team as the function grows. You’ll raise the bar on craft and speed as you scale. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR - 7+ years in product marketing, including time leading PMM for a winning PLG product at meaningful scale. You’ll bring a track record of work that moved business metrics — acquisition, conversion, or revenue — not just launches that shipped. - Segment and growth fluency. You've defined an audience or segment and built a go-to-market around it. You understand self-serve / product-led growth mechanics and are comfortable being measured on funnel outcomes (activation, conversion, expansion), partnering closely with growth and product to move them. - Pricing and packaging experience. You've shaped how a product is packaged and priced across individual and team/enterprise tiers, and you understand the tradeoffs a self-serve-to-enterprise motion creates. - Exceptional positioning and narrative craft. You can take research concepts and technical products and make them land for a discerning, professional audience. You create sharp positioning, ad creative, and launch stories (and you can write them yourself). - You thrive in an environment with rapid pace and a high accountability culture. You move very fast, make decisions with incomplete information, and instinctively gravitate toward shipping today (not writing docs for tomorrow). - Sharp competitive instincts. You track markets closely, form a real point of view on where to win, and translate it into product and messaging decisions. - Excellent written and verbal communication. You confidently assess the state of the business, call out challenges, and articulate your plans to solve them.

ABOUT THE ROLE We're looking for a Product Designer to own the experience developers have building on Runway's API: the docs, the console, and the moment someone goes from reading a reference page to a working integration. You'll partner with platform engineering and product to turn a fast-moving API surface into something developers can actually pick up and use. WHAT YOU’LL DO - Design the developer console and API docs experience, from account setup and API keys to usage, billing, and rate limits - Prototype and ship playground tools, quickstarts, and code samples that let developers test endpoints and outputs before writing integration code - Turn new models and endpoints into clear, well-documented interfaces as the platform ships, keeping pace with a fast-moving API surface - Collaborate closely with platform engineering to design authentication, webhooks, and other technical flows in terms developers actually understand - Contribute to visual and interaction consistency between the developer platform and the rest of Runway's product - Set the design direction for the developer platform as a whole and mentor other designers working on it WHAT YOU’LL NEED - Experience designing developer-facing products with a platform or tool you've shipped to point to - Comfort translating technical concepts into interfaces a developer can use without reading a manual first - Experience designing flows, prototypes and high-fidelity UI's for web products, with strong visual design skills - Experience delivering and iterating fast in close collaboration with engineering teams - Ability and flexibility to iterate fast and often - Passion for working with small teams, establishing a design culture, and creating a design-centric process within the company - Knowledge of the creative tool space and genuine interest in how developers build with generative AI - Experience in creating functional prototypes using AI tools (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.) - At Runway, it's always a bonus if you have artistic and creative potential (particularly skills with video/audio editing, icon/typography design, illustration, etc.) Runway strives to recruit and retain exceptional talent from diverse backgrounds while ensuring pay equity for our team.
