Higgsfield AI is a rapidly scaling generative AI company focused on AI-powered video creation and creative tools. This Forward Deployed Engineer role combines technical expertise with creative direction to drive enterprise adoption and success.
You will serve as the technical-creative bridge between Higgsfield's platform and Fortune 500 brands. Your responsibilities include:
**Customer Success & Demos**
Convert client briefs into high-quality, visually stunning proofs of concept and demos. Own the technical-creative side of pilot programs from kickoff through production rollout. Stay current with the generative AI model landscape to ensure your work exceeds client expectations.
**Cinematic Production**
Direct and produce broadcast-grade AI-generated cinematic campaigns end-to-end: creative direction, shot design, character and asset consistency, generation, editing, and delivery. Set and defend a world-class quality bar that showcases the platform's capabilities.
**Workflow Development**
Transform one-off successes into repeatable, scalable production pipelines. Build model chains, presets, prompt systems, and automation (APIs, MCP, agentic workflows). Reverse-engineer reference ads, film looks, and visual styles into reproducible Higgsfield workflows.
**Client Education & Enablement**
Train customer teams through live workshops, hands-on demos, and documented workflows. Become a trusted creative-technical advisor to CMOs, creative directors, and production leads.
**Product Feedback**
Bring field insights back to Product, Engineering, and Research teams: identify gaps, failure modes, feature requests, and new use cases.
**Requirements**
- Portfolio of cinematic AI work at commercial quality (portfolio review is mandatory)
- 5+ years in commercial, film, or creative production; 2+ years hands-on with generative AI
