  • You’re also thoughtful and empathetic with excellent communication skills and a high standard for excellence
  • Oh, and like the rest of the Runway team, you move incredibly fast

  • We believe in empowering people to do work that not only pushes forward the goals of Runway, but also excites them on a personal level and helps them grow as a person
  • Depending on what you’re interested in, there are so many different projects to pursue like creating Zendesk automations or beefing up our Help Center to name a few

  • Directly respond to requests for new and experienced Runway users via email and chat
  • Investigate and escalate problem reports for product or billing transactions to appropriate teams
  • Collaborate with Engineering to resolve customer issues or reported bugs with a sense of urgency
  • Engage with our Product team to translate customer feedback into actionable product updates and improvements
  • Author and maintain internal and customer-facing knowledge base documentation

Application process

  • During our interview process, you'll have several chances to get acquainted with the Runway product and use all the features our team has built - and that starts now!

Our take

Runway is revolutionizing content creation and video editing with machine learning, harnessing the expansive capabilities of web-based tools. At the forefront of this transformation, the startup offers a suite of AI-powered editing tools tailored for designers, artists, and creators, setting itself apart in an industry dominated by enterprise-focused software solutions.

The company has rapidly gained recognition among some of the world's largest brands, including R/GA, New Balance, Google, and IBM, by appealing directly to creative professionals. This approach has not only solidified Runway's position in the market but also facilitated its integration into the design curricula of esteemed institutions such as NYU, RISD< and MIT.

In a testament to its growing influence and success, Runway achieved unicorn status in 2023 following a landmark $100M funding round, which valued the company at $1.5BThis milestone not only reflects investor confidence but also positions Runway to expand its innovative tools and further democratize access to advanced video editing capabilities globally.
