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’ve raised over $83M and are backed by world-class Silicon Valley investors such as Andreessen Horowitz and Bain Capital. 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 Job

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.

What you’ll do

• Build the enterprise motion: qualify opportunities, design pilot plans, set success criteria, and drive multi-threaded deals from first conversation to signed agreements.
• Run discovery and tailor demos to creative and technical buyers.
• Be the creative’s partner: map real workflows (storyboards, lookdev, asset pipelines, versioning, review cycles) to where Krea is uniquely strong.
• Handle the details: pricing and packaging, proposals / order forms, MSAs/DPAs, and security questionnaires as needed.
• Spin up repeatable systems: sequences, collateral, case studies, references, pricing & packaging feedback, light CRM hygiene.
• Close the loop: bring insights back to product / engineering; shape our roadmap for control, quality, speed, and collaboration features.
• Own post-pilot lift: expansion plans, enablement, and partner plays with agencies and integrators.

Example experience and skills we’re looking for

• You’ve worked around creatives and understand their workflows (design, motion, VFX, fames, brand).
• High execution and go-getter attitude - you own scheduling, notes, emails, docs, and you have the agency to keep momentum and close deals.
• High attention to detail: you go deep on the fine print, spot edge cases, and catch issues before they surface.
• Exceptional communication skills and ability to articulate complex ideas clearly and persuasively.
• You’re genuinely obsessed with Krea and the creative AI space.
• Past enterprise or customer-facing experience is a plus but not required.

What we offer

• Openness to sponsoring international candidates (e.g., STEM OPT, OPT, H-1B, O-1, E-3).
• Work alongside a world-class team building the future of AI creative tooling.
• Significant scope and company-wide impact.
• Competitive compensation (75th percentile of market) with meaningful equity.
