AI Visual Generalist

Wolf Games•Los Angeles, CA

About The Position

Wolf Games is seeking an AI Visual Generalist to join their team. This role focuses on utilizing cutting-edge generative AI technology to produce high-fidelity visuals for their game development pipeline. The ideal candidate is a creative artist with strong technical skills in image and video generation models, capable of rapid execution and delivering production-ready assets. This is not a traditional concept art or R&D position, but rather one focused on the final output of visual generation. The role involves staying ahead of the curve in AI tools, influencing internal tool development, and ensuring visual assets are optimized for real-time game environments. Collaboration across engineering, design, and art disciplines is key, with an emphasis on autonomous operation and proactive problem-solving.

Requirements

Demonstrated, high-level proficiency with the latest foundational image and video generation models (e.g., Midjourney, Stable Diffusion XL/3, Runway Gen-3, Sora, Sora-level equivalents, and emerging state-of-the-art models).
A strong educational or professional background in traditional/digital art, with an understanding of why an image works.
Focus on polished, final output, utilizing raw model intelligence for quick, stunning results.
An acute sense of visual quality, with the ability to spot and correct artifacts, scaling issues, or stylistic inconsistencies.
Prior game industry experience, understanding the nuances, constraints, and specific requirements of game asset production (texturing, UI, cinematic elements, environment plates).
Technical prowess to overcome generation limitations and achieve specific visual goals.
Understanding of how asset size, resolution, and format impact game performance and optimization.
Incredibly proactive and a self-starter who thrives in ambiguity and can work autonomously.
Ability to translate complex visual concepts to engineers and technical constraints to creative teams.

Nice To Haves

Ability to comfortably use LLMs and natural language to create quick scripts, automation tools, or prototypes to speed up workflow ('Vibe Coding' Ability).

Responsibilities

Rapidly generate and finalize high-quality visual assets and cinematic video elements.
Apply deep artistic foundations (composition, lighting, anatomy, color theory) to ensure AI-generated outputs meet game-industry standards.
Continuously test the latest AI image and video generation solutions.
Actively monitor the generative AI landscape, identifying cutting-edge techniques.
Provide actionable, high-level feedback to the internal tools team to optimize proprietary workflows.
Ensure visual outputs are viable for a real-time gaming environment, understanding content optimization and performance limits.
Operate with a high degree of proactivity and autonomy, identifying visual goals and the fastest way to achieve them.
Communicate seamlessly across engineering, design, and art disciplines.
