Sonic Summary

info
  • Luma is seeking a leader for their entry into the Entertainment vertical, focusing on integrating technology within major studios and production workflows.
  • The role requires 6+ years of experience in a closing sales position, ideally with a track record of exceeding $1M in annual recurring revenue.
  • Candidates should possess a strong existing network within the Hollywood ecosystem, including studios, production companies, and talent agencies.
  • The position emphasizes building a new sales territory rather than following an established process, making it ideal for a motivated seller.
  • Salary details are not provided, but the role involves navigating complex enterprise deals and engaging with decision-makers to drive sales.

You'll lead Luma's entry into the Entertainment vertical, placing our technology at the heart of major studios, production houses, and agencies, and defining how creative AI gets sold into production workflows. This is a full-cycle closing role for a Hollywood insider.

You'll build the Entertainment sales motion using your existing industry network rather than running a pre-existing playbook — mapping production workflows across pre-vis, on-set, and post, and closing complex, multi-threaded studio deals. It fits a seller energized by building a new territory. If you need an established territory and process, this isn't it.

What You'll Own

  • Build and run the full-cycle sales motion for Entertainment, from prospecting and pipeline to closing first key accounts.

  • Engage your existing network of decision-makers across studios, production houses, and talent agencies.

  • Run deep-dive workshops mapping production workflows (pre-vis, on-set, post) to show where Luma creates value.

  • Navigate complex enterprise deals: proposals, objections, and MSAs that make Luma indispensable.

  • Funnel market intel and studio feedback back to Product and Engineering.

First 90 Days

One way the first 90 could unfold.

  • Days 1–30 — Immerse & Diagnose: Learn Luma's technology and the studios' workflows, and open doors with your network.

  • Days 30–60 — Ship & Validate: Run discovery and POCs and move first key accounts toward close.

  • Days 60–90 — Scale & Systemize: Close early deals and shape the Entertainment playbook.

What You Bring

  • 6+ years in a closing role exceeding quota (ideally $1M+ ARR), selling directly into entertainment.

  • A strong existing network and deep fluency in the Hollywood ecosystem — studios, production companies, VFX houses, and talent agencies (CAA, UTA, WME).

  • Mastery of the full, outbound-heavy (60%+) sales cycle: prospecting, discovery, POCs, procurement, and complex closes.

  • Fluency in the language of production: pre-vis, on-set VFX, editorial, and pipeline tools.

Nice to Have

  • You took a startup into the entertainment vertical and made it a core revenue stream.

  • A network of producers, VFX supervisors, and studio tech leads who trust you.

  • Experience as an agent or in business development at a top-tier talent agency or studio.

About Luma: Luma's mission is to build unified general intelligence that can generate, understand, and operate in the physical world. We believe multimodality is critical for intelligence — the next step beyond language models comes from vision. Luma is an equal opportunity employer.
