Job 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

We're looking for a passionate Product Designer to join our team and help shape the tools of the future. You should be a motivated self-starter with experience partnering with engineering teams and shipping real products. In this role, you'll work closely with product, engineering, and research to have a meaningful impact on Runway's design direction and future.

What you’ll do

  • Lead design projects, including new features and improvements to our mobile and web platforms

  • Produce, iterate, and prototype concepts for creative workflows

  • Collaborate closely with the engineering, and product teams to suggest product and process improvements

  • Contribute to maintaining visual and user experience consistency across our products

What you’ll need

  • Experience designing flows, prototypes and high-fidelity UI's for web products and strong visual design skills

  • Understanding of modern web technologies, web interactions, and usability standards

  • Experience delivering and iterating product features and 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 and understanding of the creative tool space

  • Bonus points if you have experience with 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. 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.
