What the work is
Join a leading AI lab's cutting-edge GenAI team to be at the core of the AI revolution, where your expertise fuels the development of the most advanced AI models.
Overview
A leading AI lab is building generative video models that aim for theatrical-grade finishing: consistent color across shots, accurate skin tones, multi-shot pacing, clean scene cuts and HDR-ready deliverables. We're looking for experienced colorists, finishing and online editors, narrative editors and post-production specialists to help define what excellent finishing looks like, and to judge where the models get it right or wrong. This is a full-time role of approximately 40 hours per week.
Key Responsibilities
- Set the quality bar: Define clear standards for color consistency, skin tones, multi-shot pacing, scene cuts and HDR preparation, critique current evaluations, and help build a taxonomy of the ways generated footage fails.
- Curate benchmarks: Identify, grade, edit and curate strong examples of excellent and genuinely hard color grades and multi-shot edits, and test early model capabilities against them.
- Critique model outputs: Review generated sequences and write precise, actionable notes on color shifts, contrast, banding and compression, and editorial rhythm.
- Shape the reviewer pool and captions: Help define how human reviewers are vetted and calibrated, and review captioning guidelines so color and editorial detail is described accurately.
- Collaborate with other experts to keep evaluations consistent and accurate.
Who gets hired
- 7+ years of professional experience in post-production, color grading and editorial finishing.
- Credits on 2+ professional films.
- A background in at least one of: Senior Digital Intermediate (DI) or Finishing Colorist (Resolve or Baselight, shot matching, HDR and Dolby Vision); Finishing or Online Editor (conform, color pipelines, mastering deliverables); Lead Narrative Film or Television Editor; or Post-Production Supervisor or Color Science and Pipeline Specialist (ACES, Rec.709, Rec.2020, P3).
- A meticulous eye for color shifts, skin tones, contrast, banding and compression, and editorial rhythm.
- Hands-on use of generative tools to create and finish test visual samples.
- Nice to have: reliable access to a color-accurate 4K/HDR display for pixel-level review.
- Ability to engage reliably for approximately 40 hours/week during weekdays.
- Strong written communication and the ability to turn color and editorial detail into precise language for captions and evaluation templates.
