We are building AI to simulate the world through merging art and science.
We believe that world models are at the frontier of progress in artificial intelligence. Language models alone won’t solve the world’s hardest problems – robotics, disease, scientific discovery. Real progress requires models that experience the world and learn from their mistakes, the same way that humans do. And this kind of trial and error can be massively accelerated when done in simulation, rather than in the real world.
World models offer the most clear path to general-purpose simulation, changing how stories are told, how scientific progress is made and how the next frontiers of humanity are reached.
Our team consists of creative, open minded, caring and ambitious people who are determined to change the world. We aspire to continuously build impossible things and our ability to do so relies on building an incredible team. If you are driven to do the same, we'd love to hear from you.
*Preference for NYC/Eastern Time Zone, but open to hiring in our SF and Seattle offices as well as remote across the US
Join the frontier of shaping generative AI video and its legal landscape as an early lawyer at Runway. We are looking to hire a Commercial Counsel who has a strong background in B2B SaaS customer negotiations and strategic IP-heavy partnerships. You are a self-starter who thrives at getting things done in fast-paced, unstructured environments. You have a passion for helping companies build and bringing scalable initiatives across our commercial and other legal workstreams.
While the role is in large part focused on the commercial legal function, you might also bring to the table generalist experience across domains such as data privacy, vendor negotiations, and compliance. You will serve as a strategic thought partner to cross-functional teams from sales to partnerships to marketing and to the Runway Executive Team. Comfort working within a highly technical, rapidly evolving area of the law is a must.
Lead negotiations with Runway’s customers and strategic partners. These include B2B SaaS customer contracts for our generative AI SaaS platform and APIs, DPAs, partnership agreements, and vendor agreements.
Implement commercial processes, tools, and infrastructure to help us scale, including improving templates, playbooks, and our legal tech stack
Empower the sales team with tools and knowledge to close deals quickly
Dive into the technical aspects of our generative AI products to learn them inside and out, to inform your advice to the business
Closely follow technical, legal, and policy developments in the generative AI space
Manage outside counsel as appropriate
A J.D. and admission in good standing with at least one state bar
6+ years of experience negotiating complex commercial contracts, including significant experience on a commercial legal team at a fast-paced late stage private or mid-sized public B2B SaaS company
In addition to B2B SaaS customer contract negotiations, experience with strategic IP-heavy partnerships and preferably B2C legal issues as well
Strong business acumen
The capacity to think big; a bias for action; and a willingness to take ownership
Growth mindset that prioritizes continuous operational improvement and service excellence
Experience with scaling business processes globally and operating in environments that have achieved significant scale
Excitement about generative AI and motivation to continuously learn more about the legal landscape governing a new and exciting industry
Nice to have: experience managing privacy programs relating to marketing, users, and enterprise customer/vendor agreements
