Description
Amazon MGM Studios is seeking a VFX Executive, specialising in Generative AI & VFX Workflows to drive the practical adoption, integration and operationalisation of generative AI tools and emerging technology workflows across the International Originals slate. This role sits at the intersection of creative excellence and technological innovation, acting as the connective tissue between AI strategy and production-floor execution.
Reporting directly to the Head of VFX, International Originals, you will be responsible for translating high-level AI and creative technology strategies into tangible, production-ready workflows that enhance creative output, improve efficiency, and maintain the highest quality standards across projects spanning Europe, Canada, Central and South America, APAC and India.
This is not a purely technical role, it demands someone who understands VFX production culture, creative sensitivities around AI adoption and who can navigate the human side of technology integration with empathy and authority.
Key job responsibilities
- Execute hands-on generative AI VFX work on active IO productions.
- Identify, scope and validate GenAI use cases on individual titles, quantifying potential savings and added value at the project level.
- Evaluate, pilot and operationalise generative AI tools (image generation, video synthesis, 3D asset creation) for integration into active VFX pipelines
- Design and document standardised GenAI workflows, SOPs, scalable adoption frameworks and technical reference documents providing repeatable, reusable methodologies across productions and territories
- Build and maintain a living catalogue of approved AI tools, capabilities and use-case guidance for VFX Supervisors, Producers and vendor partners
- Partner with Production Companies, VFX teams and VFX Vendors across all IO territories to identify workflow pain points where AI-augmented solutions deliver value
- Assess VFX vendor AI capabilities, build relationships and validate vendor GenAI readiness for IO productions
- Collaborate with Tech Ops, Studios Technology and central Studios teams to ensure alignment between production needs and enterprise-wide technology initiatives
- Design and deliver training programmes and workshops to upskill internal teams and production partners, tailoring approaches to different regional readiness levels.
- Organise and deliver flagship vendor knowledge-sharing events and contribute to cross-studio networking initiatives
- Partner with Legal, Content Security, and internal teams to ensure AI tool usage complies with rights, licensing, IP, and data governance requirements
- Monitor evolving industry standards and regulatory developments relating to AI in entertainment production
- Provide regular reporting on AI adoption metrics, project outcomes, cost savings delivered, and emerging opportunity areas to IOPP leadership
