Luma AI is seeking a Forward Deployed Creative to serve as the creative lead on the ground with major brands and agencies across France. You'll bridge technology and craft, shaping how top creators work with generative video and producing high-craft work in Luma as proof of concept.
This is a foundational role where you'll define how partner engagement works in the region rather than follow an established playbook. It's suited for a senior creative comfortable shaping the approach independently and consulting directly with senior partners.
Key Responsibilities:
- Partner directly with leading brands and creative agencies as their creative and strategic guide to generative AI
- Architect and prototype AI-accelerated production workflows that help partners move faster and enhance storytelling
- Create hands-on, high-craft content in Luma that sets the bar and becomes inspirational case studies
- Consult with partner leadership, translating technical capability into concrete creative and business opportunities
- Work as an on-the-ground extension of Product, Partnership, and Sales, bringing real-world insight back into the roadmap
- Set the tone and playbook for how the Forward Deployed Creative function engages partners in the region
First 90 Days:
Days 1–30: Immerse in Luma and the models deeply, meet priority partners, and understand their pipelines and where generative AI creates value.
Days 30–60: Build a real AI-accelerated workflow with a partner and produce a high-craft case study.
Days 60–90: Turn what works into repeatable boards and playbooks other Forward Deployed Creatives and partners can use.
Requirements:
- Senior client-facing creative experience (Creative Director, Creative Technologist, Technical Director, or similar) at a top agency, studio, or tech company
- Fluent in French
- Outstanding portfolio of shipped, high-craft work demonstrating taste, technical skill, and storytelling (portfolio required)
- Deep expertise in creative production pipelines (VFX, animation, motion graphics, or production) and designing new workflows using generative AI
- Track record of building new things in ambiguous, fast-moving environments
- Exceptional communication and presentation skills; ability to act as a strategic consultant to senior creative and business leaders
- Genuine enthusiasm for the creative potential of AI
Nice to Have:
- Hands-on experience with generative AI creative tools (Luma, Midjourney, Runway, Pika, Stable Diffusion)
- Public profile as a creator or thought leader in emerging tech or generative art
- Experience at an innovative agency (e.g., Buck, The Mill) or in-house tech/brand lab (e.g., Google Creative Lab, Apple Marcom)
