About the Role
You’ll work at the intersection of design and machine learning, applying our model to real creative scenarios to uncover where it works, where it fails, and how it can improve.
We’re looking for practicing designers who work from real briefs, references, and constraints — not artificial prompt experiments.
Your taste, judgment, and ability to define quality will directly shape how the model evolves.
Key Responsibilities
Apply generative models to real-world design scenarios, including editorial illustration, marketing visuals, product imagery, brand assets, and early-stage concept ideation
Evaluate generated outputs to identify quality gaps, edge cases, and opportunities for improvement, documenting findings clearly and constructively
Curate high-quality, rights-cleared reference images and articulate why each reference represents a strong target for the intended use case
Compare and rank generated images using defined criteria such as composition, visual quality, consistency, and usability within product or marketing contexts
Source and curate image sets from permitted and licensed sources that reflect contemporary visual trends and broadly recognized style categories
Develop realistic use-case scenarios with clear objectives, constraints, and desired outcomes to guide model evaluation and iteration
Qualifications
3+ years of professional experience as a designer, illustrator, art director, or visual creative
A portfolio with recent and relevant work
Strong visual taste and aesthetic judgment
Experience working with real design briefs and constraints
Ability to clearly explain why one visual solution is better than another
Comfort using experimental tools and providing structured feedback
Hands-on experience with AI image tools (and ideally chat-based AI)
Nice to Have
Background in branding, marketing, editorial, product design, or illustration
Agency or studio experience across multiple brands
Freelance experience across diverse projects
Interest in AI, generative models, or creative tooling
What We Offer
Full-time or part-time remote work (minimum ~20 hours/week)
Work on real problems at the frontier of design and ML
Help shape next-generation creative AI tools
