About the Role

A Senior Creative Technology Engineer bridges the gap between software engineering and creative design by rapidly prototyping and scaling interactive digital experiences. This role requires a hybrid professional who is equally comfortable writing production-ready code, exploring emerging technology like Generative AI, and collaborating directly with Creative Directors and clients.

Responsibilities

• Design, build, and iterate on highly polished proofs-of-concept (front-end and back-end) within short, agile cycles to validate creative ideas.
• Transition successful prototypes into robust, production-ready applications, automation pipelines, or experiential installations.
• Build and deploy workflows utilizing Large Language Models (LLMs), AI agents, custom ComfyUI nodes, vector databases, and real-time 3D environments.
• Act as the primary technical translator between Creative Directors, UX/UI designers, brand strategists, and clients.
• Attend client workshops and pitches to demonstrate prototypes, evaluate technical feasibility, and mitigate engineering risks early.
• Line-manage and mentor mid-level and junior developers, running code reviews and fostering an environment of technical curiosity.

Requirements

• 5+ years of software engineering experience, ideally within a creative agency, production house, or design-led tech company.
• Mastery of JavaScript, TypeScript, and modern front-end frameworks (e.g., React, Next.js) alongside robust back-end capabilities (Node.js, Python).
• Hands-on experience with real-time graphics and interaction libraries such as WebGL, Three.js, Unity, Unreal Engine, or TouchDesigner.
• Practical experience constructing agentic workflows, prompt engineering, and integrating AI coding tools (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor) into production.
• Proficiency in standing up lightweight cloud architectures (AWS, GCP, or Azure), managing APIs, and utilizing databases.
• Fluency in translating assets from design tools like Figma or Adobe Creative Suite into active code systems.
• Strong portfolio showcasing live interactive websites, experimental tech, or physical-digital installations.
• Exceptional communication skills with the ability to explain complex technical pipelines to non-technical stakeholders.
• Comfortable with ambiguity and shifting technical requirements.
