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.\nWorld 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.\nOur 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.\nAbout the role\nWe're looking for a Product Designer to own the experience developers have building on Runway's API: the docs, the console, and the moment someone goes from reading a reference page to a working integration. You'll partner with platform engineering and product to turn a fast-moving API surface into something developers can actually pick up and use.\nWhat you’ll do\nDesign the developer console and API docs experience, from account setup and API keys to usage, billing, and rate limits\n\nPrototype and ship playground tools, quickstarts, and code samples that let developers test endpoints and outputs before writing integration code\n\nTurn new models and endpoints into clear, well-documented interfaces as the platform ships, keeping pace with a fast-moving API surface\n\nCollaborate closely with platform engineering to design authentication, webhooks, and other technical flows in terms developers actually understand\n\nContribute to visual and interaction consistency between the developer platform and the rest of Runway's product\n\nSet the design direction for the developer platform as a whole and mentor other designers working on it\n\nWhat you’ll need\nExperience designing developer-facing products with a platform or tool you've shipped to point to\n\nComfort translating technical concepts into interfaces a developer can use without reading a manual first\n\nExperience designing flows, prototypes and high-fidelity UI's for web products, with strong visual design skills\n\nExperience delivering and iterating fast in close collaboration with engineering teams\n\nAbility and flexibility to iterate fast and often\n\nPassion for working with small teams, establishing a design culture, and creating a design-centric process within the company\n\nKnowledge of the creative tool space and genuine interest in how developers build with generative AI\n\nExperience in creating functional prototypes using AI tools (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.)\n\nAt Runway, it's always a bonus if you have artistic and creative potential (particularly skills with video/audio editing, icon/typography design, illustration, etc.)\n\nRunway 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.\nThere 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.\nLastly, 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.\nWorking at Runway\nGreat things come from great teams.We’d love to hear from you.\nWe’re committed to creating a space where our employees can bring their full selves to work and have equal opportunity to succeed. So regardless of race, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, religion, origin, ability, age, veteran status, if joining this mission speaks to you, we encourage you to apply.\nMore about Runway\nUniversal World Simulator\n\nGWM-1\n\nGen-4.5\n\nGeneral World Models\n\nRobotics SDK\n\nConversational Real-time Agents\n\nRunway Studios\n\nWe're excited to be recognized as a best place to work:\nCrain's | InHerSight | BuiltIn NYC | INC","description_format":"text","description_chars":4698,"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":[]},"benefits":["Equity"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Generative Video","AI Research Labs"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2023-08-31T19:41:06Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":8,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.296,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":1161,"expected_fill_days":59,"reasons":["conf:2","velocity","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-11-05T05:54:30Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":290000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/runway-sr-staff-product-designer-developer-platform","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/runway-sr-staff-product-designer-developer-platform.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-06T03:05:51Z","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":5250,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-07T00:00:00Z"}},"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":48213},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=48213"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Frunway-sr-staff-product-designer-developer-platform"},{"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%2Frunway-sr-staff-product-designer-developer-platform"},{"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%2Frunway-sr-staff-product-designer-developer-platform"},{"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/runway-sr-staff-product-designer-developer-platform\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Frunway-sr-staff-product-designer-developer-platform"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":112193}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"runwayml.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":112193},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
