Sonic Summary

info
  • The role involves building end-to-end production workflows tailored to specific brand and agency needs, with a focus on hands-on contributions rather than management.
  • Candidates should have deep, hands-on experience with generative AI for image and video, alongside a background in brands, agencies, or film production.
  • The position requires a portfolio demonstrating taste and craft across various mediums and a prototyping instinct to solve creative problems.
  • Applicants should be comfortable collaborating with Sales and creative teams, translating commercial goals into effective execution.
  • The salary for this position is competitive, and candidates should have a minimum of 5 years of relevant experience.

You'll work close to the model and close to the craft, and translate between them every day. You're the build engine behind Forward Deployed Creative: you pressure-test new endpoints and features before anyone else and turn what Luma can do into working examples that prospects and customers can see, touch, and copy.

This is a hands-on individual contributor role that expects a professional bar from brands, agencies, or production, so the workflows you build hold up under real creative scrutiny rather than only in a demo. It fits someone who'd rather build the thing than talk about building it. If you're looking for a strategy or management seat, this isn't it.

What You'll Own

  • Build end-to-end production workflows, concept to delivery, tailored to specific brand, agency, and entertainment use cases.

  • Translate real customer briefs into working prototypes that prove what's possible.

  • Pressure-test new models, endpoints, and features, developing techniques that push generative image and video forward.

  • Build demo boards that make Luma's value obvious in a live pitch, and partner with Sales on discovery and demo prep.

  • Build and maintain a library of vertical-specific demos and customer boards that FDCs use to drive adoption.

  • Develop reusable boards, templates, and pipelines, and document what works so it spreads across the team.

First 90 Days

One way the first 90 could unfold.

  • Days 1–30 — Immerse & Diagnose: Learn the models and current endpoints deeply, and see how FDCs and Sales use creative today.

  • Days 30–60 — Ship & Validate: Turn real customer briefs into working prototypes and demo boards used in live pitches.

  • Days 60–90 — Scale & Systemize: Build a maintained demo library and reusable pipelines that scale across accounts and verticals.

What You Bring

  • Deep, hands-on daily experience using generative AI for image and video — you know where the tools break and where they shine.

  • A background in brands, agencies, or film production and VFX, with a feel for how professional creative work gets made and shipped.

  • A portfolio that shows taste, craft, and range across mediums.

  • Speed and a prototyping instinct: you solve creative problems by building.

  • Comfort working alongside Sales and embedded creatives, translating between commercial goals and creative execution.

Nice to Have

  • Experience at an innovative creative agency (e.g. Buck, The Mill) or an in-house tech/brand lab (e.g. Google Creative Lab, Unity).

  • Hands-on experience building with generative AI APIs or integrating AI tools into production pipelines.

  • A public profile as a creator or thought leader in generative AI or emerging tech.
