Requirements

  • 12+ years architecting and shipping large-scale platforms or content/ML systems; 3+ years leading enterprise GenAI/AI programs
  • Deep understanding of M&E production and marketing workflows (campaign bursts, trailer/versioning, localization, approvals, deliverables)
  • Proficiency in GenAI solution patterns: prompt design & evaluation, guardrails, observability/measurement, vectorized retrieval or style constraints where relevant, and cost governance
  • Hands-on with at least one major cloud, Python/TypeScript, and modern data/AI tooling; ability to read code and guide design trade-offs
  • Executive presence with studio leadership; exceptional written artifacts (1-pagers, decision records, reference designs)
  • Track record leading cross-functional pods (Solutions Architects, Forward Deployed Engineers, Product, Security/Privacy, Legal) from pilot to production
  • Background in broadcast/OTT, sports, gaming, or live events; familiarity with post-production pipelines and marketing tech stacks (nice-to-have)
  • Prior Field CTO/Field Engineering leadership or consulting partner experience (nice-to-have)
  • Expansions driven by reference patterns, and executive satisfaction (C-suite CSAT) (nice-to-have)

Responsibilities

  • Own architecture for strategic M&E accounts: define target architectures for high-scale asset generation (key art, AV promos, trailers/teasers, localizations, episodic marketing), set go/no-go criteria, and chair C-suite design reviews
  • Codify reference patterns: creative workflow blueprints for prompt/evaluation pipelines, variant generation at scale, approvals, and cost/performance guardrails – including end-to-end propagation of content and distribution
  • Unblock the hardest problems: lead spikes for brand/style constraints, visual fidelity, latency/throughput for campaign bursts, multilingual quality, and watermarking/attribution
  • Integrate the stack: design integrations across Creative Cloud apps (e.g., Photoshop, Premiere Pro, After Effects, Substance 3D, Frame.io), Firefly APIs/Services, Workfront, and enterprise DAM/MAM; ensure a single source of truth from presales to delivery
  • Partner ecosystem: co-create blueprints with customers; validate partner delivery against Firefly Foundry standards
  • Executive storytelling: run C-suite workshops, publish POVs on content authenticity and responsible GenAI, and keynote customer forums and industry events
  • Value & outcomes: translate creative and business priorities into measurable ROI/TCO and success metrics; influence expansions
  • Partner daily with Firefly Foundry Engagement Managers, Solutions Architecture, Forward Deployed Engineering and Scientist, Product (Firefly/Express/Photoshop/Premiere/After Effects/Frame.io), Customer Success, Security/Privacy/Legal, and Partner/Alliances teams
