AI is transforming how every company operates, but most enterprises are stuck. They want to move fast with AI agents, tools, and workflows, but they can't do it safely. We're fixing that.
Our team built AI Actions for OpenAI, shipped Zapier Agents to millions of users, and launched the first remote MCP server with Anthropic. The co-creator of MCP is on our cap table. We helped establish the protocol, and now we're building the platform enterprises need to actually use it.
Runlayer is one platform for MCPs, Skills, and Agents. Purpose-built security, fine-grained governance, and complete observability so organizations can push AI forward across the entire company without the risk. We raised $11M from Khosla Ventures and Felicis, and customers include Gusto, Instacart, and Opendoor.
We're a team of 25, mostly engineers, shipping fast. If you want to work at the center of how AI gets things done, this is the moment.
As our Creative Director, you'll own video, motion, and visual storytelling across Runlayer. You'll create launch videos, product explainers, and demo content while overseeing case study production with external vendors. This is a hands-on role: you push pixels, not just strategy.
Why You'll Thrive Here
Impact: Define the visual language of the enterprise AI control plane at a critical inflection point
Excellence: Work alongside our renowned product designer from Square and Meta Reels, and founders who care deeply about craft
Ownership: Own all video and motion output, from quick explainers to polished customer stories
What You'll Do
Create launch videos, product demos, and narrative explainer videos (think Servo-style, not high production live action)
Design and produce motion graphics for product releases, features, and campaigns
Oversee external vendors on customer case studies and testimonials
Push pixels on web: landing pages, campaign assets, visual identity extensions
Establish the motion and video language that scales as we build out the marketing team
What We're Looking For
Strong motion design and video production skills. You can concept, design, and ship a launch video yourself.
Interaction design sensibility: you understand product and can translate features into compelling visual stories
Experience with demo videos, explainer content, and product storytelling (not just brand spots)
Proficiency in motion tools (After Effects, etc.) and design tools (Figma)
Ability to direct external video crews and vendors for higher-production content
Taste. You know the difference between forgettable B2B video and content that actually lands.
Bonus Qualifications
Background in tech, developer tools, or enterprise SaaS
Experience at a high-craft consumer brand (Nike, Apple, etc.) or design-forward startup
Web design chops in addition to motion
