About the Role

We are seeking a visionary, tech-forward Development Executive to spearhead our next generation of TV movies. If you are passionate about the art of commercial storytelling—specifically Rom-Coms, Thrillers, and procedural dramas—and are genuinely excited about the future of AI-augmented screenwriting, this role is for you.

In this position, you won't just give traditional script notes; you will actively champion, refine, and scale our development pipeline using cutting-edge AI screenwriting suites. Your core mission is an relentless pursuit of quality: utilizing modern AI tools not just for speed, but to build increasingly better movies with richer arcs, tighter pacing, and highly engaging hooks.

Key Responsibilities

- Pipeline Management: Oversee the development of a robust slate of TV movies from concept to production-ready draft, focusing on high-demand genres like Rom-Coms and Thrillers.
- AI Co-Writing & Prompt Engineering: Collaborate directly with AI tools to generate story beats, character profiles, dialogue passes,



and structural outlines.
- Curation & Continuity: Act as the human "creative compass"—massaging AI-generated outputs to inject deep emotional resonance, sharp humor, and structural integrity.
- Prompt Collaboration: Guide writers and internal teams on how to effectively integrate AI tools into their creative workflows without sacrificing voice or originality.
- Coverage & Analytics: Utilize platform data, automated script breakdown tools, and AI coverage to evaluate project feasibility, pacing, and genre-specific beats.

Qualifications & Experience

- Development Background: 3+ years of experience as a Development Executive, Story Editor, or Creative Executive in TV or film (experience with MOWs/TV movies is highly preferred).
- Genre Expertise: A deep, intuitive understanding of the tropes, structural beats, and audience expectations of Rom-Coms and Thrillers.
- AI Tool Proficiency: Hands-on experience or deep familiarity with specialized generative narrative suites such as FinalBit, Storyflow, and Paper Knowledge (or equivalent AI storyboards/LLM platforms) is a major plus.
- The Right Mindset: An enthusiastic, proactive attitude toward ethical and creative AI implementation. You view AI as an incredible superpower for human writers, not a replacement for human soul.
- Communication: Exceptional editing and communication skills, with the ability to bridge the gap between creative storytelling and technical AI prompt iteration.

What We Offer

- A seat at the forefront of entertainment innovation.
- A flexible hybrid workflow (mix of remote autonomy and cooperative on-site energy).
- Competitive salary and benefits package (to be discussed based on experience).
