AI Media Workflow Designer

Kognity, New York, NY, USA

Job type: Full Time


Join Kognity Education changes lives. But tech hasn't lived up to its promise for the more than 1 billion students in school around the world - at least not yet. At Kognity, we're here to change that.
We're a 125-person EdTech scale-up powering learning in 120+ countries. Our intelligent platform replaces traditional textbooks and combines rich, interactive pedagogy with smart AI and data to help students and teachers thrive, from international schools to US high schools.
The Role You will own and build AI workflow systems for media (images, animation, interactive media) production, shaping how educational content is created and delivered at Kognity. You will turn fragmented processes into production-ready systems with clear impact on day-to-day media production. This is a role for someone who wants to combine a strong creative eye for high-quality media with the challenge of building scalable, AI-driven systems that bring that vision to life.
What You'll Do Design and build end-to-end AI-driven media workflows, enabling consistent and repeatable production without manual intervention

Translate creative and pedagogical intent into structured pipelines, ensuring outputs align with instructional and content goals

Embed evaluation logic and quality gates into workflows, resulting in reliable, first-pass outputs with minimal rework

Optimise, troubleshoot, and scale workflows, improving performance, reliability, and turnaround times as production demands grow

Own operational media processes including asset management and supplier coordination, ensuring smooth delivery and predictable production planning

What We're Looking For Experience That Drives Impact: Proven experience designing and owning end-to-end AI workflow systems (e.g. n8n, APIs, structured prompting)

Advanced AI systems fluency, including troubleshooting, optimisation, and scaling beyond pilot workflows

Strong hands-on multimedia (graphic design, video production, animation, or interactive media) production experience, translating creative intent into structured high-quality outputs

Experience implementing evaluation logic, guardrails, or rubric-based systems within production workflows

Ways Of Working: You take ownership and drive projects with a pragmatic, solution-oriented mindset

You align stakeholders effectively and communicate clearly across teams

You work proactively and independently, moving fast without over-optimising for perfection

You are passionate about AI and continuously experiment with new tools to enhance creativity, decisions, and execution.

We leverage AI

We drive customer value

We are transparent

We take care of ourselves and each other
