Senior Creative Technologist Job at Resourceful Talent Group in New York

Overview

We’re hiring a Senior Creative Technologist for one of the most forward-thinking Creative Production teams, working at the cutting edge of art, design, and generative AI. This is a unique opportunity for someone who blends technical depth with artistic instinct — someone who’s just as comfortable in Python as they are in Photoshop, and who thrives on shaping ideas into stunning visual outputs. This role is ideal for a builder and a visionary — someone obsessed with emerging tools, excited to experiment, and ready to push the boundaries of creative tech.

This role is based in Manhattan, NY, and is designed for someone who thrives in a highly collaborative, fast-moving environment with clients and cross-functional teams.

What You’ll Do

• Serve as the tech-creative bridge, ensuring bold creative visions are flawlessly executed.
• Lead R&D for tools like ComfyUI, Blender, and GenAI platforms, and integrate them into high-impact production workflows.
• Collaborate with art directors, clients, and internal teams to shape concepts into executable pipelines.
• Build scalable workflows for CGI/VFX campaigns and real-time content.
• Stay on top of new tools, trends, and platforms — and introduce what’s next before anyone else.
• Mentor creatives and developers, fostering a culture of experimentation and innovation.
• Evaluate and manage the creative tech stack, including negotiating enterprise licenses.

What You Bring

Experience:

• 5+ years in creative tech, VFX, or CGI with a portfolio of innovative, experimental work.
• A hybrid mindset — whether you come from design with technical chops, or tech with strong creative instincts.
• Experience working with brands, agencies, or cross-functional teams on high-end visual projects.
