The role

The AI Engineer will own an agentic creative pipeline end-to-end. This role involves building systems that generate thousands of images and videos daily for platforms like Meta, Google, and TikTok.

What you will do

  • Extend LLM critic and performance-feedback regeneration from images to images, video, and copy
  • Build a video pipeline from topic and product brief to platform-ready 9:16 vertical ads
  • Develop a generative model router to pick the right model per brief
  • Build a VLM policy pre-flight checker to vet frames and captions against ad policy
  • Train and ship Brand-style LoRA / DreamBooth checkpoints
  • Build event-triggered ad pipelines for video

Required qualifications

  • Understand diffusion and video models
  • Have trained a LoRA, optimized inference, or built a ComfyUI workflow
  • Can name and explain the daily model stack including Flux, SDXL, Veo, Sora, Runway, Kling, and Hailuo
  • Have public artifacts such as a fal demo, Replicate model, Civitai upload, viral X thread, or ComfyUI workflow on GitHub
  • Have scroll-stopping instinct for ads
  • Think about cost as a design constraint
  • Have read Meta Advertising Standards and TikTok branded-content rules end-to-end
  • Be a builder who moves from idea to shipping ads

Nice to have

  • Pretrained or significantly advanced a VLM
  • Open-sourced a ComfyUI custom node, a diffusers extension, or a Replicate model with real traction
  • Deployed serverless inference on fal, Replicate, or Modal at scale
  • Shipped a video product end-to-end
  • Authored a public take on generative video model failure modes

Benefits

  • Health, dental, and vision care for you and your family (100% coverage for employee)
  • Top-tier 401(K) plan with company matching
  • Paid time off and paid holidays
  • FSA, HSA and commuter benefits programs
  • Team activity budget
  • Unlimited generative model budget

Before you apply

  • Take-home: build a small agentic creative pipeline end-to-end
  • Portfolio matters more than resume
