We're building the next generation of creative tools powered by cutting-edge AI—enabling anyone to create videos, visuals, characters, and stories with unprecedented speed and imagination. Our enterprise platform helps marketing, creative, and studio teams at leading brands, agencies, and entertainment companies accelerate image and video production. OpenArt was selected as one of five companies in the 2026 Disney Accelerator and recognized by Notable Capital’s Prosumer AI 40 as one of the most innovative AI-native companies. We believe the future of creativity is AI-native, and we're shaping that future.

🚀 Why Join OpenArt

- Work with iconic global companies — support some of the world’s most recognizable entertainment, media, and consumer brands from day one.
- Build the strategic account playbook — help define how OpenArt delivers value, drives adoption, and expands its most important enterprise relationships.
- High visibility and ownership — lead the operating cadence for high-profile accounts and work directly with senior client and internal stakeholders.
- Small team, massive impact — your execution will directly influence customer outcomes, renewals, expansion, and OpenArt’s enterprise growth.
- AI-native product — help leading creative organizations adopt cutting-edge image and video generation technology.
- High standards, low bureaucracy — we value judgment, attention to detail, ownership, and speed.

🎯 About the Role We are looking for a Strategic Account Manager to lead the day-to-day delivery and growth of OpenArt’s largest strategic accounts, including one of the world’s leading entertainment companies. These relationships demand an exceptional standard of execution. Every email, presentation, deliverable, and meeting must be thoughtful, polished, and client-ready. You will bring structure to complex, cross-functional engagements by owning the operating cadence, coordinating internal teams, preparing executive-level materials, and ensuring consistent follow-through. You will work closely with Enterprise GTM, Sales, Product, Studio, Legal, and Security to deliver a seamless client experience. You will also help turn what we learn from our flagship accounts into a repeatable operating playbook for future strategic customers. This role is ideal for someone trained in a top-tier professional services environment who wants to bring that standard of client service and execution to one of the fastest-moving companies in AI. 🛠 What You’ll Do

- Lead the day-to-day operating cadence for OpenArt’s largest strategic accounts, including meetings, agendas, notes, action items, follow-ups, and deliverable tracking.
- Program-manage client onboarding and rollouts across multiple business units, stakeholder groups, and concurrent workstreams.
- Prepare polished, executive-ready materials, including business reviews, account updates, proposals, presentations, and training content.
- Coordinate teams across Enterprise GTM, Sales, Product, Studio, Legal, and Security so clients experience one coherent OpenArt.
- Build trusted relationships with client stakeholders and proactively address risks, blockers, dependencies, and changing priorities.
- Track product usage, adoption, account health, and expansion signals to support renewal and upsell opportunities.
- Partner with commercial leads to identify new use cases, business units, and opportunities to grow each strategic relationship.
- Handle confidential client information, sensitive creative materials, and intellectual property with sound judgment and discretion.
- Document effective processes and improve OpenArt’s strategic account playbook so it can scale across future enterprise customers.

⚙ What We’re Looking For Core Requirements

- Three or more years of experience in a client-facing role at a top-tier professional services organization, such as management consulting, investment banking, or a leading agency or advisory firm.
- Experience working directly with Fortune 500 companies or similarly large and complex enterprise clients.
- Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with a demonstrated ability to produce polished, client-ready materials.
- Strong program-management skills and the ability to coordinate multiple workstreams, deadlines, and stakeholder groups.
- Flawless attention to detail and a consistently high standard for written communication, presentations, and meeting preparation.
- Strong judgment and discretion when handling confidential information, sensitive creative work, and intellectual property.
- A humble, execution-first mindset and willingness to take ownership of both strategic and operational work.
- Ability to operate effectively in a fast-moving, ambiguous startup environment.
- Genuine interest in AI, creative technology, and the future of content production.

## Preferred Qualifications

- Experience working in or serving the entertainment, media, advertising, or creative industries.
- Familiarity with creative production workflows, including campaign production, VFX, studio operations, or post-production.
- Experience using HubSpot or a similar CRM platform.
- Exposure to or active use of AI creative tools.

## About OpenArt AI

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: OpenArt is an all-in-one AI creative platform that enables users to generate, edit, and remix images, videos, characters, audio, and 3D worlds through a single interface.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Series A)
- **Headquarters**: San Francisco, California, United States
- **Founded**: 2022
- **Founders**: Coco Mao (CEO), John Qiao (CTO) – both former Google engineers

## Core Business
- Primary Industry: Technology, Information and Internet; AI‑powered creative tools
- Target Customers: B2C (millions of individual creators) and B2B (brands, studios, content teams)
- Mission Statement: “Build the future of storytelling with AI.”

## Products & Services
- **Image Generation & Editing** – Generate images using models like GPT Image 2, Nano Banana Pro, Seedream 5.0, and edit within the same canvas (erase, expand, restyle, upscale to 4K).
- **Video Generation** – Create videos up to 15 seconds at up to 4K resolution, choosing from models such as Veo 3.1, Seedance 2.0, Kling 3.0 Omni, and Sora 2. Refine or edit each generation.
- **Character Builder** – Build consistent characters using reference images or text; characters can be reused across images, scenes, and videos with the same face and style.
- **World** – Generate persistent, navigable 3D spatial environments from a single prompt or reference images; add characters, place objects, take still photos, or export to 3D tools.
- **Audio** – AI voiceovers in 30+ languages with lip‑sync, original music generation, and sound effects (footsteps, rain, etc.). Export as WAV or MP3 timed to video.
- **OpenArt Director** – Storyboard and refine video sequences using natural‑language chat for granular shot‑by‑shot control.
- **Smart Shot** – Convert a single prompt into 3–5 cinematic cuts with varied angles, camera moves, and visual consistency.

## Market Standing

- **Key Metrics**:
  - **Annual Recurring Revenue**: Grew from $10.5 M to over $70 M in 2025 (7× growth) [[openart.ai/blog]](https://openart.ai/blog/the-openart-story/)
  - **Monthly Active Users**: 8 million+ [[openart.ai/blog]](https://openart.ai/blog/the-openart-story/)
- **Total Funding**: $40 M+ across three rounds:
  - Seed (June 2023): $5 M led by DCM Ventures and CapitalOven [[tracxn.com]](https://tracxn.com/d/companies/openart/__rGLZ4jZtTKFqOnIFJpVIpXqrPEtJHfzKwCfxXxYFnns)
  - Venture Round (Aug 2025): $5 M [[linkedin.com]](https://www.linkedin.com/company/openart-ai)
  - Series A (2026–Q1): $30 M – $35 M (conflicting reports) led by Canaan Partners [[openart.ai/blog]](https://openart.ai/blog/the-openart-story/)

- **Growth Signals**:
  - Employee headcount: 67 (1,172.7% YoY growth; 29.6% monthly growth) [[linkedin.com]](https://www.linkedin.com/company/openart-ai)
  - Presence in 17 countries across North America, Asia, and Europe
  - Hosted the world’s first AI Influencer Summit and produced “Bot House,” the first AI reality TV show

## Competitive Advantages
- **All‑in‑one platform**: Instead of juggling separate tools (Midjourney for images, Runway/Sora for video, etc.), users access images, video, characters, audio, and 3D worlds under a single subscription.
- **Character consistency**: A core differentiator – one character can be reused across images, scenes, and videos with the same look, enabling storytelling and AI influencers.
- **Model agnosticism**: The platform bundles multiple top‑tier AI models (Seedream, Veo, GPT Image, Kling, Sora, etc.), letting users pick the best option per project without paying multiple subscriptions.
- **Strong retention driven by storytelling**: The metric most watched is not ARR but how often creators return to deepen characters and expand universes.

## Strategic Focus
- Continue building the end‑to‑end creative platform for storytellers (characters, worlds, long‑form video)
- Expand the AI influencer and brand‑mascot market (e.g., AI Influencer Summit, Bot House reality show)
- Deepen integration of audio and video editing for professional studios
- Grow the engineering and product teams – “We’ve nearly doubled in size this year, and the pace isn’t slowing down.” [[openart.ai/blog]](https://openart.ai/blog/the-openart-story/)

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Fast‑moving, lean team that “move[s] fast, over‑communicate[s], and put[s] storytelling at the heart of everything.” [[openart.ai/blog]](https://openart.ai/blog/the-openart-story/)
- **Growth trajectory**: Company experienced 7× ARR growth in one year and is actively hiring across departments (engineering, design, product, marketing)
- **Founders**: Ex‑Google (Coco Mao, John Qiao) with a track record of launching products at scale (short‑form video platform acquired by Google Search)
- **Work model**: Hybrid / office presence in San Francisco (HQ) and Redwood City; no formal remote‑first policy stated
- **Notable**: Free trial available for users; employees have backgrounds from top AI companies (Stability AI, Invideo, ImagineArt, etc.)
