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.
Youtube Creator & Educator | NY Preferred, or Remote | Full-time
*Preference to hire based in New York but open to hiring remote across the US/Canada — we also have offices in New York, San Francisco, Seattle, London, Paris, and Tel Aviv.
About the RoleWe're looking for a YouTube Creator & Educator to build and own our YouTube channel. You'll be on-screen, behind the camera, in the edit and in the tools, teaching filmmakers, advertisers and storytellers how to do real things with generative AI.
This isn't a talking head in front of slides. You'll show people how to make a real ad, cut a real short film or build a real production workflow using Runway's full media toolkit, and you'll own everything from concept to publish.
You'll build the channel from the ground up, inside the company making the tools you're teaching, with early access, direct relationships with product and real creative latitude. Not a brand content factory, a home for craft and experimentation.
What You'll OwnSet the channel strategy with the creative team: topics, formats, cadence and audience, grounded in what creators and marketers actually want to learn
Own growth, watch time and retention, and iterate on what works
Write, film, edit and finish every video, including screen recordings, on-camera segments and custom motion graphics
Use Runway's generative tools as a core part of your workflow, both to teach them and to produce with them
Ground tutorials in real outcomes, a polished product ad, a short film on a lean budget, a VFX shot, and teach production technique rather than button presses, for beginners through working professionals
Build a viewer community, find guest collaborators and partner with Product and Marketing on launches
Required: An active YouTube channel or substantial body of published long-form video work.
Expert editing and motion graphics (After Effects, Premiere, DaVinci Resolve or equivalent), plus filmmaking fundamentals. You know how to shoot, light and direct, even simply
Advanced hands-on Runway experience and fluency with other generative AI video tools
A point of view on filmmaking, advertising or visual storytelling that comes through in the work, and the instinct to teach it without losing the audience
The ability to run the full production cycle alone, without a crew
