About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Architect PRISM's commercial intelligence engine for the film, TV, and streaming lifecycle — from development and financing through theatrical release, streaming distribution, and catalog monetization
Design and own proprietary ROI and Greenlight Simulation models that banks, studios, and financiers will use as the primary basis for multi-million dollar funding decisions
Build the composite market view architecture, unifying social sentiment, theatrical performance, and streaming consumption data into a single authoritative content valuation model
Own the enterprise workflow integration strategy across financial institutions, major studios, and distributors — including mandatory embedding into underwriting software, rights management systems, and greenlighting tools
Define API architecture and integration standards for institutional partners, with full accountability for compliance, data governance, and security requirements in high-stakes financial contexts
Drive systemic integration depth: volume and quality of proprietary API integrations across institutional systems is a primary performance metric
Lead governed, persona-specific interface design across distinct stakeholder groups: High-Fidelity Risk View for bank compliance committees, Creative Performance View for studio development teams, and Distribution Intelligence View for global distributors
Establish UX standards and design governance for the content lifecycle module, ensuring interface consistency and data fidelity across all user personas
Represent PRISM at the C-suite level with studio, banking, and investment firm clients — credibility and authority in these relationships is a commercial prerequisite for enterprise retention
Partner with Sales and Account Management on enterprise contract negotiations, renewal strategy, and platform expansion within key accounts
Own the full product roadmap for the content lifecycle module, setting priorities and tradeoffs across engineering, data science, design, and go-to-market teams
Operate with independence — making architectural decisions, managing stakeholder expectations, and resolving cross-functional conflicts without VP escalation for routine matters
