Job description

ABOUT KREA At Krea, we are building next-generation AI creative tools. We're dedicated to making AI intuitive and controllable for creatives - our mission is to build tools that empower human creativity, not replace it. We believe AI is a new medium that allows us to express ourselves through various formats - text, images, video, sound, and even 3D. We're building better, smarter, and more controllable tools to harness this medium. We recently took this a step forward with the launch of Krea 2 https://www.krea.ai/blog/krea-2-image-model, our first foundation model, built completely from scratch for aesthetic diversity and stylistic control. We've raised over $83M and are backed by world-class investors such as a16z, Bain Capital, and Abstract. We work full-time and in-person at our waterfront office in San Francisco. We care about creativity: our team includes musicians, designers, visual artists, and engineers. THIS ROLE We’re hiring someone to help us build the enterprise motion with studios, agencies, brands, and innovation teams. You’ll handle the full sales cycle: outreach, discovery, demos, pilots, contracts, and expansion. We’re especially interested in people who know creative workflows and tools, and want to grow the sales side with a strong execution mindset.
