The Opportunity
Luma AI is building the next era of creative tools, powered by our own Omni models that see, hear, and understand the world. We combine the resources of a capitalization-heavy AI lab with the speed of a small, elite product team. This environment guarantees that you will sit at the intersection of Product, Design, and Research, translating raw model capabilities into magical user experiences that define a new category of software.
Where You Come In
You will be a foundational member of the product engineering team, responsible for the end-to-end delivery of our most ambitious features. This role requires a builder who can traverse the entire stack. You will partner directly with researchers to productionize novel capabilities, ensuring that the complexity of the model is invisible to the user.
What You Will Build
- End-to-End Features: You will own the full lifecycle of product development, from designing the data model and API endpoints to implementing the client-side logic and UI components.
- Novel Interactions: You will invent new paradigms for interacting with generative AI, bridging the gap between asynchronous backend processes and responsive, high-fidelity frontend interfaces.
- Research Integration: You will rapidly prototype and ship features that leverage our latest research breakthroughs, turning experimental capabilities into stable, polished product workflows
The Profile We Are Looking For
- Full-Stack Fluency: You are an expert in Python or Go on the backend and possess strong proficiency with modern frontend frameworks like React and TypeScript.
- Craft Obsession: You care deeply about the feel of the product. You understand that in an AI-native application, latency, reliability, and interaction design are inextricably linked.
- Proven Builder: You have a history of shipping complex, user-facing products from scratch, thriving in environments where you define the spec as you build.
Compensation
The base pay range for this role is $170,000 – $360,000 per year.
