Senior Generative AI Video Specialist - Remote - Octopus by RTG

A senior, hands-on expert who produces professional, brand-ready videos with generative AI. This person understands the science behind video generation, prepares assets carefully, plans every scene with intent, and turns AI video from experiments into a reliable production capability. Key Responsibilities 1. AI Video Generation

• Produce high-quality corporate videos end to end using AI, with Higgsfield as a core platform alongside other leading image and video models.
• Choose the right model, mode and settings for each shot based on a real understanding of how the models behave and where they fail.
• Deliver consistent results across characters, environments, lighting, style and brand from one shot to the next. 2. The Science Behind the Generation
• Apply a deep understanding of how diffusion and video models work, including motion, temporal consistency, camera control, seeds, reference conditioning and how prompts are interpreted.
• Engineer prompts and references with intent, not trial and error, and document what works as reusable recipes.
• Diagnose and fix common issues such as flicker, warping, identity drift, unnatural motion and artefacts. 3. Asset Preparation
• Prepare production-ready inputs, including reference images, character sheets, product and location references, style frames, start and end frames, and brand elements.
• Build and maintain a reusable asset library (characters, styles, environments, prompts) for consistency across projects.
• Upscale, clean up, retouch and composite assets so they are ready for generation and final delivery. 4. Scene & Story Preparation
• Turn briefs into scripts, storyboards, shot lists and scene breakdowns before any generation starts.
• Plan every scene with intent: framing, camera movement, lens feel, pacing, lighting, mood and transitions.
• Direct the full flow from concept to generation, editing, sound, voice-over, music, colour and final export. 5. Quality, Governance & Enablement
• Ensure outputs meet brand, quality, legal, IP and responsible-AI standards, including the use of people's likeness and approved content.
• Define a repeatable AI video production workflow with clear review points, turnaround times and quality standards.
• Coach designers and content teams, and stay ahead of new AI video tools and techniques.
• 8+ years in video production, motion design, VFX, animation or content creation, with 2+ years of hands-on generative AI video work.
• Must: Expert-level, hands-on Higgsfield experience, backed by a strong portfolio of AI-generated videos.
• Strong working knowledge of other AI image and video tools (for example Runway, Kling, Veo, Sora, Midjourney, Flux), and the judgement to pick the right one for each shot.
• Deep understanding of how generative video models work and how to control them.
• Strong grounding in film language: storytelling, cinematography, composition, lighting, editing and pacing.
• Proficiency in editing and finishing tools such as Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve and Photoshop.
• Experience with AI voice, music and lip-sync tools is a strong plus.
• Experience delivering for corporate or brand audiences, and presenting concepts and outputs to stakeholders. What We Are Looking For
• Technical depth: knows why a generation works or fails, not only which prompt to use.
• Creative direction: thinks like a director: story, shots and pacing come first.
• Production discipline: prepares assets and scenes before generating and works to repeatable workflows.
• Quality eye: will not accept artefacts, inconsistency or off-brand output. Portfolio Requirement
• Candidates must share a portfolio of AI-generated videos, with a short breakdown of 1–2 projects: tools used, asset preparation, scene planning, prompting approach and post-production.
