Role Summary The Creative Technologist, Gen-AI TD will be a key technical craft leader within the JioStar AI Media Studio (JAMS), responsible for building and operationalizing GenAI-led production workflows that bridge AI generation, traditional VFX, compositing, color science, DI, and post-production pipelines. This role sits at the intersection of creative technology and production execution. The ideal candidate brings deep hands-on fluency in ComfyUI and multimodal GenAI workflows, along with strong understanding of color pipelines, compositing principles, post-production workflows, and the practical realities of delivering premium video content. You will help define how GenAI outputs move from experimentation into production-grade pipelines that creative, VFX, DI, and post teams can trust, refine, and scale. Key Responsibilities ComfyUI and GenAI Workflow Development ● Design, build, and maintain advanced ComfyUI workflows for image and video generation, control, refinement, consistency, and production handoff. ● Develop node-based GenAI pipelines that support controllability, repeatability, versioning, and creative direction across multiple content formats. ● Integrate techniques such as ControlNet, IP adapters, LoRAs, reference conditioning, motion transfer, upscaling, inpainting, and other emerging GenAI methods into usable production workflows. ● Continuously evaluate new GenAI tools, models, and workflow patterns, and adapt them for JAMS production needs. Color Science, DI, and Post-Production Pipeline Integration ● Define and maintain color-managed GenAI workflows using ACES, OCIO, LUT/CDL-based pipelines, and show-specific color transforms. ● Ensure AI-generated outputs preserve color consistency across ComfyUI, compositing, editorial, grading, real-time, and delivery environments. ● Work with post and DI teams on conform, reference exports, CDL/show LUT handling, VFX pulls, EXR workflows, SDR/HDR versioning, and final delivery readiness. ● Troubleshoot issues around scene-linear workflows, bit depth, alpha/premultiplication, matte/depth passes, gamut mapping, grain, denoise, compression artifacts, and shot-to-shot continuity. ● Partner with colorists, editors, compositors, VFX artists, and pipeline teams to establish reliable review, QC, and handoff practices for AI-generated visual material. Compositing and VFX Bridge ● Apply a strong understanding of compositing principles to make GenAI outputs more usable, controllable, and production-ready. ● Build workflow bridges between GenAI tools and traditional VFX/compositing pipelines such as Nuke, After Effects, Fusion, or equivalent tools. ● Help teams combine AI-generated elements with live action, CG, matte painting, clean-up, roto, matchmove, and finishing workflows. ● Support shot-level problem solving where GenAI outputs need to be layered, corrected, stabilized, matched, or refined for final use. 3D and Real-Time Workflow Collaboration ● Collaborate with teams using 3D and real-time tools such as Blender, Unreal Engine, Maya, Houdini, or equivalent platforms. ● Explore workflows that combine 3D scene control, camera movement, lighting references, depth passes, masks, renders, and GenAI generation. ● Help define how 3D inputs and outputs can improve consistency, directability, and production value in AI-native content creation. ● Support color-managed real-time review workflows, including OCIO-aware viewport and render handoffs where applicable. Cross-Functional Production Enablement ● Work closely with Creative Technologists, Narrative and Visual Storytelling Leads, Producers, Editors, VFX/Post teams, Product, Engineering, and Data Science teams. ● Translate creative production needs into robust technical workflows that can be used by small teams and PODs. ● Document workflows, best practices, model/tool limitations, and repeatable production playbooks for the JAMS team. ● Partner with Creative Technologists and Engineering teams on AI generation guardrails, validation prompts, and review workflows that improve output consistency, safety, and production usability. ● Serve as an independent problem-solver and force multiplier across multiple active AI-native productions. Requirements ● 10+ years of professional experience in the media, entertainment, VFX, animation, post-production, gaming, or adjacent creative technology industries. ● Strong hands-on expertise in ComfyUI, especially for image/video generation workflows, control, refinement, and production-oriented automation. ● Deep understanding of color science, color pipelines, post-production workflows, and finishing requirements. ● Strong working knowledge of ACES, OCIO, LUTs, CDLs, IDTs/ODTs, display transforms, Rec.709, P3, HDR/SDR workflows, and DI/post-production handoff. ● Experience with EXR-based VFX workflows, scene-linear compositing, alpha/matte/depth passes, color-managed review, and technical QC for finishing. ● Strong practical understanding of compositing principles and VFX production workflows. ● Ability to bridge GenAI experimentation with traditional production-grade VFX and post pipelines. ● Familiarity with tools such as Nuke, After Effects, Fusion, DaVinci Resolve, Baselight, or similar compositing/post-production tools. ● Working knowledge of 3D or real-time tools such as Blender, Unreal Engine, Maya, Houdini, or equivalent platforms is highly desirable. ● Strong understanding of GenAI visual workflows, including model behavior, prompting, conditioning, reference control, consistency, artifact management, and output evaluation. ● Excellent collaboration skills with the ability to work across creative, technical, and production teams. ● High ownership, learning agility, and comfort operating in a fast-evolving AI-native production environment. Preferred Education and Experience ● Bachelor's or Master's degree in animation, VFX, film production, computer graphics, design, engineering, or a related field. ● Prior experience in VFX, animation, gaming, virtual production, post-production, DI, or AI-led content creation. ● Experience building reusable production workflows, templates, toolkits, or technical playbooks for creative teams. ● Exposure to GenAI video tools, multimodal models, agentic workflows, and AI-assisted filmmaking pipelines. ● Familiarity with top-tier studio, VFX, animation, virtual production, or post-production operating models is a significant advantage.
