We are looking for a high-impact Account Executive to spearhead our entry into the Entertainment vertical. This isn't about running a pre-existing playbook; it's about leveraging your deep industry network and sales acumen to write it in real-time. Your mission is to place Luma's frontier technology at the heart of the world's leading studios, production houses, and agencies, defining how creative AI is sold into production workflows. What a Typical Week Might Look Like: - Pioneer the Playbook: Architect and execute the full-cycle sales motion for the Entertainment vertical, from initial prospecting and pipeline generation to closing our first key accounts. - Leverage Your Network: Engage your deep, pre-existing network of decision-makers across studios, production houses, and talent agencies to open doors and build strategic relationships. - Translate Tech to Value: Run deep-dive workshops to map current production workflows (pre-vis, on-set, post) and demonstrate how Luma’s visual-first AI creates tangible value and efficiency. - Close High-Impact Deals: Navigate complex, multi-threaded enterprise deals, draft proposals, handle objections, and negotiate MSAs that establish Luma as an indispensable tool in Hollywood. - Be the Voice of the Market: Funnel market intel and critical feedback from studio clients back to our Product and Engineering teams to directly influence our roadmap. Your Background Looks Something Like: - 6+ years in a closing role with a consistent record of exceeding quota (ideally $1M+ ARR), selling directly into the entertainment industry. - A robust, pre-existing network and deep fluency in the Hollywood ecosystem, including studios, production companies, VFX houses, and talent agencies (e.g., CAA, UTA, WME). - Mastery of the full, outbound-heavy (60%+) sales cycle: prospecting, running discovery, designing POCs, navigating procurement, and closing complex, multi-threaded deals. - You are fluent in the language of production: pre-vis, on-set VFX, editorial, and pipeline tools. What Would Make You Exceptional: - You were a trailblazer who took a startup into the entertainment vertical and made it a core revenue stream. - You have a rolodex of producers, VFX supervisors, and studio tech leads who consider you a trusted partner. - Direct experience as an agent or in a business development role at a top-tier talent agency or studio. You Might Really Thrive Here If… - Zero-to-one is your comfort zone; you are energized by the ambiguity of building a new territory from scratch. - You can translate "neural rendering" into "faster post schedule" without losing the room. - You believe better tools unlock better stories, and you want to be the one to prove it to the industry. - "Iterate, ship, learn" sounds better to you than "submit, review, wait." This position offers competitive compensation, equity and benefits. ## About Luma ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Luma builds multimodal AI models that can generate, understand, and operate in the physical world, shipping them in products like Dream Machine for creators and teams. - **Entity Type**: Private (Series C) - **Headquarters**: Redwood City, California, USA - **Founded**: 2021 - **Founders**: Not publicly listed on official sources ## Core Business - **Primary industry**: Artificial Intelligence / Generative AI / Creative AI - **Target customers**: B2B (enterprises, agencies, developers) and B2C (creators, filmmakers) - **Mission or purpose statement**: To build unified general intelligence that can generate, understand, and operate in the physical world. ## Products & Services - **Luma Dream Machine**: Consumer-facing product for turning ideas into compelling visuals (video, image, audio, text) using generative AI. - **Ray 3.2 API**: Production-grade video generation API with full creative control—multi-keyframe (up to 16), V2V up to 20 seconds, reframe, 1080p output, native HDR, and 16-bit EXR export. - **Uni-1.1 API**: Multimodal reasoning model API for image generation (text-to-image, reference-guided) and natural-language image editing, with up to nine reference inputs per request. - **Luma Agents**: Agentic creative workflows that plan, generate, iterate, and refine across every stage of creative work—available in the Luma App and trusted by teams at Publicis Groupe, Serviceplan, Mazda, Dentsu, and Humain. - **Open Physical AI Lab**: An open science effort to solve generalization in physical AI, built in the open for the benefit of all humanity. ## Market Standing - **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed - **Key Metrics**: Total Funding: $1.3B+ (official site) / $1.057B (LinkedIn); Annual Revenue: $5M (LinkedIn estimate); Users worldwide: 30M+; Team Members: 250+ - **Notable Investors/Partners**: HUMAIN (led Series C), Andreessen Horowitz (led Series B), Amplify Partners (led Series A), Matrix (led Seed Round).
