Product Engineer | Creative Intelligence

The Opportunity Luma AI is a full-stack AI lab building Multimodal AGI. To solve the hardest problems in intelligence, models must learn from audio, video, and images. We train our own foundational models and build the products that sit on top of them. We offer the rare combination of massive compute resources and funding typically found at major tech companies, coupled with the agility and individual impact of a small, early-stage startup.

Where You Come In You will join a small, high-autonomy team to architect the systems that transform our frontier research into a creative partner for millions of users. This role sits at the intersection of Engineering, Product, and Research, requiring you to translate raw model capabilities into fast, reliable, and magical product experiences.

What You Will Build The Logic of Creativity: Architect the backend systems for Dream Machine, moving beyond simple API calls to build complex, asynchronous workflows that power generative media. Research-to-Product Pipelines: Collaborate directly with researchers to productionize novel capabilities, such as camera control or visual reasoning. End-to-End Architecture: Own features from the database schema to the client-facing API, ensuring low latency for high-fidelity media generation.

The Profile We Are Looking For Technical Leadership: You have a proven ability to navigate ambiguity and lead technical definition, taking projects from a vague concept to a shipped product without needing established roadmaps. High Agency Builder: You have a history of creating, launching, and building new systems from scratch. You thrive in environments where you own the stack from the database to the interface. Product Instincts: You care deeply about the end-user experience and understand how backend decisions impact the feel of the product. Technical Fluency: You have deep expertise in Python or Go, REST/gRPC APIs, and modern cloud infrastructure.
