Our platform empowers creators to bring their ideas to life through AI-powered image and video generation, making high-quality creative production more accessible to everyone.\nToday, OpenArt is one of the fastest-growing AI creative platforms, helping millions of people create images, videos, stories, ads, and other creative content with AI.\nOpenArt was selected as one of just five companies in the 2026 Disney Accelerator and recognized by Notable Capital’s Prosumer AI 40 as one of the 40 most innovative AI-native companies.\n\nAbout the Role\nThis role connects OpenArt's model partners with our Product, Engineering and Growth teams. Working with frontier labs and open-source teams alike, you'll build lasting partnerships, secure early access, negotiate commercial terms, and turn each partnership into product launches and growth.\nWhat You’ll Do\nYou'll own OpenArt's partnerships with LLM, image, video, audio and 3D model providers end to end, from the first conversation through ongoing account management. That includes:\nNegotiate and manage deals: structure API pricing, volume commitments, revenue share, early-access and exclusivity arrangements that work for both sides. Once signed, keep contracts, usage and costs on track, and make sure commitments on both sides are met.\n\nLand day-one launches: secure early access to new models and coordinate with Product and Engineering so they ship on OpenArt at or near launch.\n\nDrive joint go-to-market: develop co-marketing with providers (launch announcements, case studies, creator showcases, events) and work with Growth on positioning and activation.\n\nWhat We’re Looking For\n3+ years in partnerships, business development, or developer/platform relationships, ideally in AI, creative tools, cloud or developer platforms, with a track record of negotiating and closing commercial agreements such as API, licensing or revenue-share deals. An existing network across AI labs and model providers is a strong plus.\n\nExcellent relationship-building skills, comfort talking technical details (APIs, rate limits, latency, pricing per output) with engineers and business details with executives.\n\nNice to have\nMandarin, Japanese, Korean, French, Spanish or other languages useful for partnering with global model providers.\n\nWhy Join OpenArt\nYou'll shape which models millions of creators can use, and how fast they get them.\n\nHigh ownership, direct exposure to leadership, and a seat at the center of the creative AI ecosystem.\n\nWork with a collaborative, global team at the forefront of AI and creative technology.\n\nCompensation\n$140K - $170K base salary, plus annual bonus and RSUs\n\nEquity - meaningful ownership in what you build\n\nHigh autonomy, high growth environment\n\nWork Setup\nBay Area preferred (hybrid available)\n\nVisa sponsorship available","description_format":"text","description_chars":2959,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"Spanish","level":"All levels","optional":true}]},"benefits":["Equity"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Generative Image","Generative Video"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-23T04:24:03Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 6","filings_12m":6,"filings_prev_12m":1,"green_card_filings_12m":0,"median_offered_wage_usd":142500,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-15T11:24:14+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":2,"expected_fill_days":41,"reasons":["conf:0","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-25T05:49:26Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":170000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/openart-model-partnerships-manager","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/openart-model-partnerships-manager.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-25T21:18:31Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":30147,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-26T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":176113},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=176113"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fopenart-model-partnerships-manager"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fopenart-model-partnerships-manager"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fopenart-model-partnerships-manager"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/openart-model-partnerships-manager\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fopenart-model-partnerships-manager"}]}
