Обязанности
- Own the Cinematica roadmap end to end — adaptation, shot generation, character and style consistency, music, editing and quality evaluation — and decide what gets built first, what gets cut, and what waits
- Turn a production process that today depends on individual judgement into a platform other people can run: our own studio first, then storytellers beyond
- Define what "good" looks like for an story on screen, write it down, and hold the line on it
- Build the evaluation system behind that bar: rubrics, benchmarks, blind comparisons and human review loops, so quality becomes something the team can measure and argue about with evidence rather than taste alone
- Own the model and prompt strategy, and the buy-versus-build calls underneath it, with engineering, design, analytics and user research
- Drive improvements through their entire product lifecycle: ideation, specification, development, release, analysis and iterations
- Run a tight iteration loop: ship, watch what viewers actually do, diagnose precisely what failed, feed it back into the pipeline, measure the delta
- Work shoulder to shoulder with our Creative Director and AI-Video Production team — your first users — turning craft judgement into systems that hold up without any one person in the room
- Educate and influence cross functional stakeholders and leadership to secure buy-in on the roadmap, and communicate your hypotheses and results to team members and leadership
- Make quality legible: report it as a number that moves, and connect it to what it does for retention and conversion
Требования
- 6+ years of professional experience at a fast growing tech company, building creative prosumer/enterprise tools or AI-powered products. We measure years on the job, not years holding a “product manager” title.
- A roadmap you owned outright: you set the sequence, you decided what didn't get built, and you can explain what that cost and why it was right
- Demonstrable taste. You can watch two pieces of generated video, articulate precisely why one is better, and turn that judgement into a rubric someone else can apply without you
- Proven track record owning the quality of creative output at scale, and building the systems that measured it — benchmarks, human eval, blind comparisons, A/B — plus a point of view on where automated metrics stop being useful. Generative AI, film and TV post-production, games, animation or creative tooling all count
- You have made things yourself, not only managed people who make things. Be ready to walk us through something you personally produced — a shipped feature, a film, a reel, a side project
- Exceptional analytical skills where you can quantify both qualitative/quantitative data to make product and strategic decision - i.e. Advanced SQL skills
- Self starter that can deliver results with limited supervision and thrives in a fast-paced environment
- Strong product intuition and UX design sensibilities, with a user centric mindset
- Willing to roll up your sleeves to go above and beyond to make things successful
- Ability to work closely with cross-functional stakeholders to determine first-class solutions
- Location: Onsite in San Francisco Bay Area
