Job Description

AI Specialist / Automation Engineer

We are seeking an innovative and highly autonomous AI Specialist / Automation Engineer to design, build, and deploy custom AI-driven tools, agents, and internal workflows. In this role, you will act as a force multiplier for our engineering, creative, and quality assurance teams. Instead of using off-the-shelf software, you will leverage LLMs, vector databases, and automation frameworks to build bespoke platforms that eliminate friction, automate content pipelines, and accelerate software delivery.

What You Will Do (Key Responsibilities)

· Cross-Functional AI Tooling: Partner directly with Dev, Creative, and QA leads to identify operational bottlenecks and engineer tailored AI solutions.

· Art-Style & Graphics Automation: Design and prioritize bespoke graphics tools tailor-made to capture and multiply both static and animated art assets, ensuring they strictly match the studio's unique art style.

· Architecture & Development: Build, test, and deploy internal AI applications, custom web portals, and Slack/Teams bots utilizing modern LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, open-source models).

· Workflow Automation: Design end-to-end automated pipelines that connect disparate software systems (e.g., Jira, GitHub, CMS) using orchestration frameworks.

· Prompt Engineering & Fine-Tuning: Develop, evaluate, and optimize complex system prompts and agentic workflows to ensure high-quality, deterministic outputs.

· Evaluation & Maintenance: Monitor tool performance, manage API cost optimization, mitigate model hallucination, and ensure strict data privacy and security compliance.

Domain-Specific Impact Areas

· For Dev & Math Teams: Build tools that automate repetitive tasks like summarizing technical documentation, generating boilerplate code, and AI-assisted code reviews. Develop specialized AI tools that utilize data exported via Excel to assist with complex math tooling and game balancing.

· For Creative Teams: Build asset-generation pipelines, automated game rules generation, and tools to generate themes that help Artists/Animators scale content securely.

· For QA Teams: Build agents that instantly parse acceptance criteria to generate comprehensive test cases, automate synthetic test data generation, generate submission documents, and categorize bug reports.

Required Technical Skills & Qualifications

· Experience: 5+ years in software engineering, with at least 1.5+ years of hands-on experience building production-grade AI/LLM applications.

· Specialized Expertise: Strong experience working extensively with art and animation pipelines (highly favorable distinction).

· Programming: Mastery of Python or TypeScript/Node.js.

· AI Ecosystem: Deep familiarity with LLM APIs (OpenAI, Claude), orchestration frameworks (LangChain, LlamaIndex, or LangGraph), and Vector Databases.

· Integrations: Proven track record of working with REST APIs, webhooks, and SDKs for developer tools (GitHub, Jira), creative platforms (Figma, Adobe), and communication hubs (Slack, Teams).

Soft Skills & Mindset

· Product Mindset: Ability to interview internal users (Devs, Designers, QA), translate their pain points into technical requirements, and build intuitive UX/UI.

· Ambiguity Champion: Comfortable working in a rapidly shifting AI landscape, evaluating new frameworks, and picking the right tool for the job.

Qualification

· Computer Science Education (B.Tech/BE/MCA)
