Creative Technologist Job at Pressrun in New York

Pressrun · New York, NY, USA ·

Job type:
Full Time

You sit at the intersection of design and engineering, building interactive experiences and prototyping new content formats. You'll push what's technically possible in how we publish, present, and distribute content — from generative visuals to interactive editorial experiences.

What you'll do

  • Prototype and build interactive content experiences for web and mobile
  • Develop generative and procedural visual systems for editorial content
  • Create tooling that bridges creative workflows and engineering pipelines
  • Explore emerging technologies — WebGL, generative AI, spatial computing — for content applications
  • Collaborate with designers and engineers to ship production-quality creative technology
  • Build and maintain internal creative tools and automation workflows

What we're looking for

  • 4+ years at the intersection of creative and engineering
  • A portfolio of interactive or generative projects — not just static websites
  • Design sensibility and the ability to make technical work feel beautiful
  • Comfort with ambiguity; you can take a vague creative brief and build something surprising
  • Experience with modern front-end frameworks (React, Next.js, or similar)

Nice to have

  • Experience with creative coding tools (p5.js, TouchDesigner, Processing)
  • Background in generative AI integration (Stable Diffusion, DALL-E, Midjourney APIs)
  • Familiarity with motion design tools (After Effects, Lottie)
  • Equity participation
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Unlimited PTO with a 3-week minimum
  • $2,500 annual learning & development budget
