Director Creative Technology

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
