This position isn’t about chasing trends; it’s about shaping what’s next. You’ll play a key role in defining our approach to AI-powered creativity, driving experimentation, prototyping, and implementation across digital formats. Whether building tools, designing new workflows, or unlocking entirely new creative possibilities, you’ll help push the work, and the team, forward.

This is a Full Time Role.

  • Create with AI : Develop compelling content and assets using generative AI tools across image, video, text, and interactive experiences.
  • Push Into Emerging Platforms : Explore and prototype applications of AI within XR, AR, and spatial experiences, leveraging generative tools to create more immersive, adaptive storytelling environments.
  • Act as a Translator : Bridge the gap between creative and technical, bringing ideas to life through systems thinking and thoughtful execution.
  • Stay Ahead : Monitor advancements in generative AI, LLMs, creative tooling, and automation to ensure we’re always working with what’s most powerful and relevant.

Required Qualifications and Skills

  • 5+ years of experience working at the intersection of creativity and technology within digital creative teams, production studios, agencies, or experiential design environments.

  • Familiarity with LLM tuning, prompt engineering, and integrating APIs into creative workflows.
  • Comfortable in node-based environments (ComfyUI or similar), with knowledge of scripting (Python, JS) a plus.
  • Experience designing or prototyping within XR / AR frameworks (e.g., Unity, Lens Studio, WebXR) and integrating generative assets into immersive environments.
  • Ability to tinker, tweak, and troubleshoot, whether it’s a prompt or a custom workflow.
  • Experience collaborating in cross-disciplinary teams and explaining complex tools or ideas clearly.
  • A portfolio showcasing AI-driven work, creative experimentation, concept-to-execution thinking, AI integration, and creative problem-solving in technical environments.
  • Strong communication skills, organizational discipline, and a self-starting mindset.
  • Open to ambiguity, driven by curiosity, and comfortable operating in a fast-evolving tech and creative landscape. A strong creative eye paired with technical fluency, someone who gets both pixels and pipelines.
