About ImagineArt

We're redefining how the world creates and designs.

ImagineArt is one of the fastest-growing GenAI companies in the world. We've scaled faster than most funded startups — with zero outside funding.

  • $35M+ ARR crossed this year

  • 100M+ social impressions

  • Built and shipped our own image generation model, now ranked #3 globally for photo realism

No funding. No shortcuts. Just a sharp, driven team building one of the strongest GenAI products in the world — and we're just getting started.

We're now expanding our commercial presence in San Francisco and looking for someone who can help us build and scale our Enterprise and B2B motion from the ground up.

  • Convert pilot users into long-term customers

Deal Management & Commercial Execution
  • Lead pricing discussions, proposals, commercial negotiations, and procurement processes

  • Coordinate contracts, MSAs, DPAs, security reviews, and stakeholder approvals

  • Maintain momentum across complex, multi-stakeholder sales cycles

  • Ensure a high-quality customer experience throughout the buying journey

Account Growth & Expansion
  • Identify additional teams, departments, and use cases within customer accounts

  • Drive account expansion and upsell opportunities

  • Build long-term strategic relationships with customers

GTM Systems & Feedback Loop

  • Bring customer insights back to Product, Engineering, and Leadership teams

  • Influence roadmap, packaging, pricing, and positioning based on market feedback

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
