Full Job Description
About the role

*Open to hiring remote across the US - preferable to have someone near an office in NYC or San Francisco.

Video and creative work is becoming programmable. Runway is building the developer platform that turns generative video into production-grade outputs for all: reliable, composable, controllable, and scalable.

We're hiring a Senior PM to own that platform end-to-end.

Join us at the inflection point as models hit "deployable quality" and the demand shifts from experiments to real product pipelines. You'll own the strategy, the roadmap, and the cross-functional execution that makes Runway the default choice for developers and agents both.

This is a high-impact role at the center of Runway's next growth vector. You'll define and ship new endpoints (not just model wrappers), unlock agent-first distribution surfaces, and ensure enterprises can deploy on Runway with confidence. You'll stay close to customers, developer systems, and the business, with a mandate to make clear ambitious bets and ship them.

What you'll do
  • Own the developer platform strategy and roadmap to ensure it serves both the needs of individual developers and enterprises
  • Drive growth of API usage and revenue week over week
  • Define and analyze success metrics, talk with users weekly, and ship quickly against ambitious goals
  • Be the connective tissue across engineering, design, marketing, and sales: translate customer needs into crisp specs, unblock execution, and land launches with strong storytelling
What you'll need
  • 4-7+ years of product management experience, ideally on developer-facing or technical products (APIs, SDKs, platforms, infra-adjacent systems, or devtools)
  • Excitement about ambiguity and high ownership opportunities for impact
  • Familiarity with the latest ML-driven coding trends and the future of agentic development
  • Ability to operate at the highest levels at both the strategic and execution layers
  • Excellent written and verbal communication


Runway 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.

There 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.

Lastly, 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.
