AI ENGLISH SHORT DRAMA SCRIPT PRODUCTION MANAGER

TikTok is hiring a Script Production Manager to build out the AI-driven pipeline for English short drama scripts. This sits within their PGC (Professionally Generated Content) team, which focuses on scaling professional, high-quality content across the platform. Full-time, on-site in LA, with a salary range of $94K to $236K plus potential bonuses, RSUs, and full benefits.

Company Overview

TikTok is the dominant platform for short-form mobile video, with global headquarters in Los Angeles and Singapore and offices across New York, London, Dublin, Paris, Berlin, Dubai, Jakarta, Seoul, and Tokyo. Their PGC team is specifically focused on building a professional content ecosystem spanning business, finance, humanities, technology, and entertainment verticals. This role sits within that team's push to integrate AI tooling into their short drama content pipeline.

Position Overview

This is a production management role focused on the intersection of AI tools and English-language short drama scripting. You'll evaluate whether to build or buy when it comes to large language model integration, research and test the tools available for script generation, and collaborate with engineering to develop a full AI-assisted production workflow. That covers everything from prompt optimization and model selection to quality review standards and manual polish SOPs. You'll also own the data and metrics that measure how well the AI output actually performs. This isn't a creative writing job. It's a systems and process role for someone who understands both AI capabilities and short drama storytelling.

Key Responsibilities

• Evaluate technical approaches for AI-driven English short drama script production, comparing large-model API integration against in-house development, and deliver feasibility plans with cost-benefit analysis
• Research and assess tools and resources relevant to English short drama script creation, collaborating with engineering to build an end-to-end AI production process covering prompt optimization, model selection, content review, and manual editing standards
• Partner with the technical team to drive AI tool development, defining product requirements and iteration roadmaps
• Build a quality evaluation framework for AI-generated scripts, establishing data indicators like availability rate and usability rate, and continuously refine the production pipeline based on those metrics

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree or higher in literature, film and television, media, digital media art, computer science, or related fields
• Deep hands-on experience with models like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini, including writing precise prompts, adjusting parameters, and editing/optimizing generated output; prior work on AI text-generation projects required
• Familiarity with English short drama or web novel content formats; English as a working language
• Experience designing content production workflows is preferred; candidates with AIGC implementation backgrounds will be prioritized

Compensation and Benefits

Base salary range of $94,240 to $235,980 annually depending on experience, qualifications, and location. Additional compensation may include discretionary bonuses and restricted stock units. Day-one benefits including medical, dental, and vision insurance, 401(k) with company match, paid parental leave, short and long-term disability, life insurance, and wellbeing benefits. 10 paid holidays, 10 paid sick days, and 17 days of paid personal time annually.
