About this role.
Luxury Presence is hiring a hands-on Generative Media Engineer to build and improve the AI Social media-rendering pipeline for real estate marketing content. The role combines TypeScript/Node.js engineering with LLM agents, prompt design, evaluation workflows, and image, video, voice, music, and browser-based rendering. The engineer will partner closely with product, design, and content strategy while owning visual quality and production readiness for AI-generated Instagram carousels and reels. This is an individual-contributor position emphasizing experimentation, strong creative judgment, reusable systems, and high ownership rather than platform architecture or people management.

Cover letter sample
Dear Hiring Team,
I am excited to apply for the Generative Media Engineer, AI Social role at Luxury Presence. My experience building production TypeScript and Node.js applications, combined with hands-on work in LLM-driven workflows, structured outputs, tool calling, and evaluation, aligns closely with the AI Social mission.
I am especially drawn to the opportunity to turn generative image, video, voice, and rendering tools into polished, scalable creative systems rather than isolated experiments. I would bring a strong bias for reusable templates, visual quality, rapid iteration, and clear collaboration with product, design, and content partners.
I would welcome the opportunity to help Luxury Presence create AI-generated social media experiences that are both technically dependable and creatively distinctive.
Sample interview questions
I would explain the user goal, the media-generation pipeline, and the production constraints I addressed. I would describe a repeatable evaluation approach combining automated checks such as format validity and brand-rule compliance with human review of visual quality, relevance, and consistency, then show how findings informed prompt, template, or model changes.
I would break the workflow into structured stages: validate and normalize listing inputs, develop a content brief, select media, create a script and scene plan, generate voice and visual assets, compose the reel, and run quality gates before publishing. Each stage would use typed schemas, bounded tool access, retries and fallbacks, traceable outputs, and evaluation criteria that protect factual accuracy, brand consistency, and render reliability.
I start with expected repetition, customer impact, and the stability of the design pattern. For recurring content formats, I favor configurable template families because they improve consistency, speed, and maintainability; I reserve bespoke work for high-value exploratory cases or when a new pattern has not yet proven repeatable.
I would use strict structured outputs, schema validation, deterministic rendering contracts, idempotent jobs, observability, and explicit retry and fallback paths. I would also maintain representative evaluation datasets, log model and prompt versions, measure failure modes, and add human review or safe defaults for cases where automated quality confidence is low.
I would translate technical constraints into concrete creative choices, use prototypes and example outputs to make tradeoffs visible, and establish shared acceptance criteria for quality. Regular feedback loops, concise documentation, and clear ownership boundaries would help ensure strategy partners shape the content direction while engineering delivers a dependable system.
Luxury Presence is building the AI growth platform for real estate. Backed by Bessemer Venture Partners and other top investors, we’re a Series C company that has hit $100M in annual recurring revenue. More than 90,000 real estate professionals, including over 30% of the WSJ Real Trends top 100 agents in the United States, use us to run and grow their business.
The Opportunity
AI Social is one of the most ambitious products we’ve ever shipped. An AI agent that produces on-brand Instagram carousels and reels for every Luxury Presence customer, from raw input data to finished media. It isn’t LLMs writing code. It’s LLMs designing, choosing the photo, voicing the script, picking the cuts, and composing the final frame.
As the Generative Media Engineer on AI Social, you own the render pipeline, the prompts and agent loops that drive it, and the visual quality of what ships. Product and content strategy partners set the direction; engineering and design peers ship alongside you. This is an unusual role at the intersection of code, design, AI, and social media. You don’t fit the normal engineering mold, that’s the point.
Skills and experience
- Solid working knowledge of TypeScript and Node.js. You’re comfortable shipping production code and you’re ready to grow into our stack.
- Hands-on experience with LLM-driven systems. Prompts, structured outputs, tool-calling, agent loops, evals.
- At least one shipped piece of generative media in image, video, voice, or music that someone other than you has seen and used.
- A portfolio or body of work that demonstrates both technical depth and design sensibility.
- Bonus: a personal creator practice somewhere. A feed, a portfolio, a side project, a YouTube channel, an Are.na. Public, ongoing, under your own name. You understand the medium because you’ve lived in it.
- Formal or self-taught grounding in design, visual art, film, or motion.
- Comfort moving between exploratory PoC work and shipped-to-customers polish, with judgment about which mode is appropriate when.
Technical fluency with AI tools
- You’re already using Claude Code, Cursor, or similar AI-assisted development tools in your daily workflow. We’re a Claude Code shop and we expect you to be fluent.
- Familiarity with MCPs and how tools like Figma, Notion, and Linear connect into AI-assisted workflows. You understand how these tools and integrations fit together and can help the team get more out of them.
- Beyond fluency, you’re a dabbler and experimenter. You try new prompts, push their limits, and share what you learn. You have opinions about where the medium is headed.
Mindset
- You’re a tinkerer. You don’t just build what’s asked; you spot leverage points and build what’s needed.
- You care about systems more than features. You’d rather build a template family that ships ten posts well than ten bespoke posts that age out by next week.
- You build on shared systems. Constraints feel like leverage, not obstacles.
- You have strong convictions about quality, but you ship. You know the difference between polish that matters and perfection that stalls.
- You partner well with non-engineers. You’ll collaborate across product, design, and content strategy. Patience and clarity with people outside engineering is non-negotiable.
- You operate with high ownership and low ego. You take direction from product and strategy partners on what to build, and you raise the bar on everything you ship.
What You Won’t Be Doing
To be clear about what this role is not:
- You won’t own platform architecture or distributed systems work. You’ll partner with engineering teams that do, while you stay focused on the AI Social pipeline itself.
- You won’t own the social strategy. You’ll have a real voice in shaping it, but the call sits with our product and content strategy partners.
- You won’t be managing people on day one. This is a hands-on IC role with the expectation that you lead through craft and influence.
Tech stack
- Platform: Node, TypeScript, React, Postgres, AWS, Temporal
- LLMs and agents: the major model SDKs, with tool-calling, structured outputs, and multi-step agent loops
- Media pipeline: image and video generation (Veo for video), voice and music synthesis (ElevenLabs), composite (Shotstack), and headless browser rendering
