[Hiring] Technical Artist (AI Video Pipeline) @Pixaera

Role Description

We are looking for an AI Video Pipeline Engineer who is a technical artist first and a pipeline builder second. You will build and own the AI image and video pipeline the whole studio uses, turning R&D into a working system that makes our output faster, more consistent, and higher quality.

• Building, owning, and maintaining the AI image and video pipeline across our LFI (Learning From Incidents) reconstructions, 2D image work, and video output.
• Solving consistency at scale using trained LoRAs, ControlNets, IP-Adapters, and reference workflows.
• Training and maintaining models on our own characters, worlds, and styles.
• Turning research into production by hardening, documenting, and shipping reusable workflows, presets, and tools.
• Working across both open-weight and closed-weight tools, benchmarking them on quality, control, speed, and cost.
• Bringing a point of view to the open vs closed debate.
• Bridging the AI pipeline and our real-time work in Unreal Engine 5.
• Supporting the artists who use the pipeline day to day.
• Holding the visual quality bar on AI output.

Qualifications

• A technical artist with an AI pipeline background.
• Experience building a generative AI production pipeline used by other artists.
• Trained models (LoRAs or similar) on specific characters and styles.
• Deep, hands-on ComfyUI experience.
• Strong working knowledge of Stable Diffusion, Flux, ControlNets, LoRAs, IP-Adapters, upscaling, and inpainting.
• Real production experience with closed-weight video tools such as Higgsfield, Kling, and Seedance.
• A background in Unreal Engine or Unity is a strong plus.
• Comfortable with Python scripting and a repo-based workflow.
• Experience with video consistency problems (character, motion, temporal coherence).

Requirements

• A builder for other people, measuring success by how many artists use what you made.
• Tool-agnostic and evidence-led.
• High output and high standards.
• Direct and collaborative.
• Able to show a portfolio, showreel, or pipeline walkthrough.

Benefits

• Competitive salary and stock options.
• 25 days holiday + public holidays.
• Fully equipped setup from day one.
• Regular company offsites and team socials.
• A flat, transparent culture with direct access to leadership.
