Working closely with the Art Lead and Game Director, you will help demonstrate how AI can enhance artistic workflows, improve iteration speed, and expand creative capacity across the team.
 
This is a foundational role contributing to an emerging discipline within Kabam, establishing sustainable, artist-driven AI workflows that support production while maintaining artistic ownership and craft. Technical AI development and tool creation are supported by Kabam’s central Data and AI teams; this role focuses on the creative application and production use of those tools.

  • Demonstrate practical AI-assisted workflows through hands-on production work.
  • Support artists in incorporating AI into their existing creative processes.
  • Promote responsible, collaborative use of AI that enhances artistic craftsmanship.
  • Collaborate to improve Kabam’s internal AI tools and suggest the use of other commercial AI tools.
  • Maintain consistency with established visual style and brand standards.
  • Refine and polish AI outputs using traditional art techniques to meet production quality bars.
