Staff AI VFX Engineer
The Staff AI VFX Engineer joins the Firefly Foundry team to integrate generative AI into high-end visual effects for film and episodic content. You will build and validate AI-driven workflows, developing prototypes that incorporate custom-trained diffusion and video models into compositing, look-dev, and virtual production pipelines. Key responsibilities include solving technical hurdles like temporal coherence and art-directable control while designing API integrations for tools such as Nuke, Houdini, Maya, and Substance 3D. You will manage multi-modal model orchestration to ensure consistency across image, video, and 3D assets. The role requires proficiency in Python and C++, Rust, or TypeScript, alongside knowledge of OpenEXR, ACES, and USD standards. You must possess expertise in generative AI fundamentals like LoRA, ControlNet, and prompt engineering to bridge the gap between studio requirements and model architecture.
