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:

  1. Daily Meals: Lunch and Dinner provided
  2. Family Insurance: 5 Lakhs worth of coverage for you and your family
  3. Unlimited Paid Time Off: Take the time you need to recharge and come back refreshed
  4. Flexible Working Hours: Work arrangements that fit your life and commitments

Let's build the future of software together.
