AI Filmmaker
Emergent builds autonomous coding agents that replace traditional software development by generating, testing, and deploying production applications directly from plain-language intent. Our systems run in production at global scale and are used to build millions of real applications.
Since our public launch, we've crossed $130M in Annualised Revenue and grown to over 10M users across 190+ countries, who have built 12M+ applications on Emergent. We're backed by Creaegis, Khosla Ventures, SoftBank, Lightspeed, Together, Y Combinator, Google, Claypond and Sentinel Global.
We're solving the hard part of AI-driven software creation: correctness, reliability, security, and scale in real production systems. The team is built by repeat founders, Olympiad medalists, IIT & IIM alumni, and leaders from Google, Amazon, and Dropbox.
We're hiring builders who want ownership, speed, and impact at global scale.
The Role:
About 70% of our users have never coded before. They are small business owners, solo founders, and operators who had an idea and no engineer to build it with. We are hiring a filmmaker who works with AI generation tools to make films for our social channels and campaigns. You will make films end-to-end using AI image and video tools: concept, shot list, generation, edit, and finish.
The work has to hold up as film, not as a tech demo. Characters that stay consistent across shots, lighting and grade that match from cut to cut, and a story that works even for someone who has no idea how it was made. Most of our audience is in the US and Europe, and we make everything from 20-second social pieces to longer branded films and campaign work. This is a full-time role based in Bangalore, reporting to the Head of Brand and Marketing.
What You'll Do:
Make short films and social video using AI image and video generation tools, from concept through final cut
Write or develop the story, and build shot lists and storyboards before generating
Prompt, iterate, and curate until the output is genuinely usable, rather than settling for the first acceptable result
Keep characters, wardrobe, locations, and lighting consistent across a full sequence
Edit the generated material into a finished film, with sound design, music, grade, and captions
Combine AI output with live footage, screen recordings, and motion graphics where the piece calls for it
Build and maintain reusable assets: character references, style guides, and prompt libraries the team can work from
Keep pace with new models and tools, and tell us which ones are worth moving to
Work with the writer and the on-camera creator on pieces that mix formats
What We're Looking For:
A body of AI-generated film work we can watch, where the storytelling is as strong as the visuals
Demonstrated ability to generate realistic imagery and video, with control over composition, lighting, and camera movement
Proven consistency across shots. Show us a sequence, not a collection of standalone frames
Hands-on command of current image and video generation tools, and a clear view of what each one is good for
Strong editing skills in Premiere Pro or Final Cut, plus After Effects
Grounding in the fundamentals: shot composition, coverage, pacing, and continuity
Based in Bangalore, or willing to relocate
Nice to Have:
Traditional film, animation, or VFX background
Voice and audio generation, including cloning and dubbing
Compositing, rotoscoping, or clean-up work
Experience building repeatable pipelines rather than one-off pieces
How We Sound:
Our tone is dry, direct, and plain. We do not oversell, we avoid hype, and we do not open a video by talking about artificial intelligence.
Benefits and Perks:
Daily Meals: Lunch and Dinner provided
Family Insurance: 5 Lakhs worth of coverage for you and your family
Unlimited Paid Time Off: Take the time you need to recharge and come back refreshed
Flexible Working Hours: Work arrangements that fit your life and commitments
Let's build the future of software together.
