Job description
Summary
Runway is a company focused on building AI to simulate the world through the merging of art and science. They are seeking a passionate Design Engineer to join their research and exploration team, where the role involves prototyping user experiences and developing tools for AI-generated video and world models.
Responsibilities
- Prototype and implement novel user experiences at the intersection of AI video, world models, and emerging generative media
- Design and build agentic tools and interfaces that allow researchers and creatives to interact with and direct AI systems in real time
- Explore new application areas for AI video and general world models — from simulation and interactive media to research tooling
- Stretch the limits of front-end engineering to broaden what’s possible in research and experimentation contexts
- Create internal tools and frameworks used across design and engineering teams at Runway Labs
- Work alongside researchers, engineers, and product designers to shape how we think about the future of AI-driven creativity
Skills
- Genuine curiosity about AI video, world models, agentic engineering and generative media and an intuition for how to design meaningful interactions with these systems
- Experience designing flows, prototypes, and high-fidelity UIs for web and agentic products
- Experience building agentic tools or interfaces — i.e., systems where AI takes actions, reasons over state, or drives multi-step workflows
- Strong understanding of visual and interaction design, as well as usability testing
- Comfort working in ambiguous, research oriented environments where the problem space is still being defined
- Strong understanding of visual and interaction design, as well as usability testing
