- Bring customer insights, product gaps, and emerging use cases back to Product, Engineering, and Research teams
- Stay at the forefront of image and video generation and continuously push what's possible with Higgsfield

- Experience delivering customer-facing pilots, PoCs, or productions from brief through final output
- Comfortable presenting to executives and running live demos

- High agency, strong ownership, and ability to move quickly in a startup environment
- Excellent communication skills
