CapsLock is hiring the tech lead who will architect its AI Media Production platform — generating 1:1-accurate visuals of real client products with no artifacts or hallucinations. A greenfield build: the first engineer in this direction, working directly with the Design Director as the interface between creative teams and software infrastructure.
Location: London, United Kingdom
Seniority: Lead
What you’ll do:
- Architect and run the AI Media Production platform: serving ComfyUI or similar engines, GPU environments, and one-click UIs for non-technical teams
- Ship modular, versioned, reproducible generative pipelines — node-based and/or code-first (e.g. diffusers)
- Develop one-click presets and use cases for image and video generation
- Train LoRAs end-to-end: from real product photography to evaluated, production-ready models
- Build control-first generation into every pipeline: ControlNet, IP-Adapter, inpainting, reference conditioning
- Engineer QC into the pipeline itself: automated checks against product references before human review
- Encode what makes best-performing assets work into reusable presets and styles
Unique:
- Own the technical roadmap with the Design Director; qualify new models and tools
What you’ll need:
- Experience shipping generative pipelines adopted and used daily by other people
- Production-grade workflows in ComfyUI or similar, or equivalent code-first experience (diffusers)
- Strong Python: automation, API integrations, custom nodes
- LoRA training end-to-end, from dataset curation to evaluation
- Experience deploying pipelines as internal tools; visual literacy to set the quality bar
Nice to have:
- 3D/render-hybrid workflows (Blender/CAD ground truth), LLM orchestration and VLM-based QC, performance-marketing visuals
