[Hiring] Creative Director @Autodesk

Role Description

We’re looking for a Creative Director to help define what AI filmmaking can become with Autodesk Flow Studio. This is a rare opportunity to shape both the creative direction of the product itself and the films, experiments, demos, and cultural moments that show the world what it can do.

This is an AI-first, hands-on creative leadership role embedded within the Flow Studio Product organization. You’ll have significant creative freedom, lead a dedicated content team, work closely with Product leadership, and get hands-on with emerging AI filmmaking tools and workflows. The work can range from ambitious cinematic showcases and AI films to fast-moving social experiments designed to earn attention organically.

You’ll own the creative bar for everything that lives in or represents the product:

• The creative look and feel of key product surfaces
• Cinematic and animation libraries
• Camera moves, templates, and examples
• Demos, launch storytelling, and other content that helps creators understand what Flow Studio can make possible

You’ll also be the primary product-side creative partner to Flow Studio Marketing, helping shape concepts, promos, launch videos, campaigns, social content, and other external storytelling.

The ideal person is already deeply engaged in AI filmmaking, has exceptional visual taste and a strong cinematic eye, understands internet culture and social trends, and wants the freedom and resources to make ambitious work that people actually want to watch.

Please submit a portfolio or reel with your application.

Qualifications

• Exceptional portfolio or reel demonstrating outstanding cinematic taste, storytelling, and creative direction.
• Deep, hands-on experience with AI filmmaking and modern generative creative tools.
• Strong filmmaking instincts across camera, composition, lighting, performance, pacing, editing, and visual storytelling.
• Proven ability to originate and create ambitious cinematic work.
• Strong understanding of viral, social, and internet-native content.
• Experience leading creative teams and giving direct feedback.
• Comfort working closely with Product and Engineering teams.

Requirements

• Own the creative vision and quality bar for Flow Studio across in-product creative experiences, cinematic content, libraries, demos, showcases, and product storytelling.
• Lead and develop the Flow Studio content team, setting creative priorities, directing execution, mentoring contributors, and building a team capable of producing exceptional work quickly.
• Create and direct ambitious AI filmmaking work—from cinematic showcases and product films to reference-quality experiments.
• Work hands-on with emerging AI image, video, performance, animation, and filmmaking tools.
• Shape the creative layer of the product itself, including cinematic and animation libraries, camera moves, examples, templates, and onboarding content.
• Bring strong filmmaking judgment to camera, composition, lighting, performance, pacing, editing, visual treatment, and storytelling.
• Partner closely with Product, Design, and Engineering from early feature development through launch.
• Act as the primary product-side creative partner to Marketing for launches, campaigns, promotional films, social, web, events, and other external storytelling.
• Identify opportunities around emerging AI, filmmaking, and social trends.
• Build lightweight creative standards, reusable assets, and production practices.

Benefits

• Time away and everyday wellness
• Salary transparency: Starting base salary between $153,000 and $273,460
• Annual cash bonuses, commissions for sales roles, stock grants, and a comprehensive benefits package
