  • Comfortable working in fast-paced, ambiguous environments where experimentation is encouraged
  • A curious, collaborative mindset with a passion for learning new tools and shaping the future of art creation with GenAI

Nice to Have

  • Experience with AI-generated art pipelines (e.g., mesh/texture upscaling, AI mesh generation)
  • Familiarity with real-time engines such as Unity or Unreal, or scripting for pipelines
  • Experience working closely with researchers or technical teams
