Creative AI Technologist

TITLE: Creative AI Technologist

LOCATION: Cupertino, CA – hybrid 3 days onsite

ANTICIPATED DURATION: From 12/15/2025 to 12/15/2026

Responsibilities:

• Design and implement agentic and multi-agent patterns (planner–critic–actor, tool-use/function calling, memory/knowledge, safety/approval gates).
• Integrate with existing internal models, APIs, and approved tools; define contracts, guardrails, and observability for safe deployment.
• Build retrieval and grounding pipelines (RAG) using internal knowledge bases, templates, and brand/style guides.
• Adapt high-quality internal templates and design systems; translate creative briefs into scalable AI-assisted workflows.
• Develop assistive agents that propose on-brand copy, imagery, and UI microcopy; stage actions for human approval.
• Create prompt libraries & frameworks, evaluation datasets, and reusable tool flows for common content tasks.
• Support optimization of design and AI workflows via tool testing, process refinement, and quality assurance.
• Implement evaluation harnesses (quality, safety, bias, compliance), A/B tests, and automated regression checks.
• Establish SLAs, retries, and idempotency for production pipelines; monitor use, latency, and success rates.
• Create, maintain, and adapt clear documentation: style guides, model/agent specs, workflows, and technical overviews.
• Run playbooks for designer-in-the-loop reviews; define approval criteria and rollback/compensation steps.
• Train and support creative and engineering partners; provide external partners with clear guidelines for on-brand delivery.
• Embed privacy-by-design, accessibility, and safety policies; enforce least-privilege access and content guardrails.
• Partner with legal, policy, and security to ensure responsible AI usage and auditability across locales.
• Work fluidly with designers, writers, producers, engineers, data scientists, and program managers.
• Translate creative needs into technical specs and technical constraints into creative options.

Requirements:

• Proven experience as a Production Designer (or equivalent) with a portfolio of detail-oriented design across digital & product.
• Demonstrated experience architecting AI solutions: agentic/multi-agent workflows, prompt engineering, tool/function calling, and structured outputs.
• Hands-on with LLMs and generative models (text/vision/audio), retrieval/grounding, and evaluation methodologies.
• Strong graphic design skills: visual communication, typography, layout; mastery of Adobe Creative Suite, especially Photoshop (advanced retouching).
• Meticulous file prep, asset management, adherence to specs, and quality control for large-scale content operations.
• Proficiency in scripting for workflow automation (e.g., Python; familiarity with Swift or JavaScript a plus).
• Ability to create and maintain clear documentation (style guides, SOPs, tech overviews) and to drive QA/testing of assets, templates, and tools.
• Excellent cross-functional communication; demonstrated success partnering with both creative and technical teams.
• Strong problem-solving, systems thinking, and attention to detail; comfortable with debugging complex pipelines.

Preferred Experience:

• Experience integrating and optimizing against internal model endpoints and data sources; familiarity with privacy, security, and compliance best practices.
• Knowledge of agent orchestration frameworks and components (e.g., planners/critics, vector stores, embeddings, evaluators, observability).
• Experience developing automation scripts or custom tools to improve design workflows; ability to architect and develop agentic AI at scale.
• Skilled in Sketch and familiarity with UI/UX principles; ability to prototype in context and present solutions to creative and stakeholders.
• Basic understanding of front-end development (SwiftUI, React) or creative coding tools (Processing, TouchDesigner, Unity) relevant to prototyping.
• Exposure to gen‑AI for media (image/video/audio), ASR/TTS, and media asset pipelines; comfort with A/B testing and experimentation platforms.
• Understanding of accessibility standards and localization/transcreation workflows.

The hourly pay rate range for this position is $70.00 to $93.01 (dependent on factors including but not limited to client requirements, experience, statutory considerations, and location). Benefits available to full-time employees: medical, dental, vision, disability, life insurance, 401k and commuter benefits.
