Job description


About the Role
This Photo-CGI-AI Assistant Art Director role helps drive the look, feel, and execution of our photo-realistic product CGI-AI assets and digital photography both in-studio and for CGI / AI workflows. Proper design and art direction, combined with the right content, drives customer engagement with the brand. Visual content created in this role directly translates business needs into compelling imagery that ultimately drives revenue.
This position supports high-volume, Photo-AI-driven image production while also contributing to broader CGI, rendering, and digital photography initiatives. It requires a highly organized, process-oriented, and extremely detail-focused creative leader who thrives in structured workflows, moves quickly without sacrificing accuracy, and works confidently within defined brand and production standards.
You will collaborate cross-functionally to translate creative direction into consistent, brand-aligned, photo-realistic imagery across ecommerce and digital channels. This includes structured prompt development, image refinement, interior scene direction, asset organization, quality assurance, and process optimization. The ideal candidate is agile, adaptable, and comfortable evolving workflows while maintaining exceptional quality standards.
A strong understanding of architecture, interior design, photography, lighting, composition, decorating, visual branding, and emerging AI-driven creative tools is essential.

  • Demonstrate strong attention to detail in final outputs

Cross-Functional Collaboration
  • Collaborate with Creative Operations, Art Direction, Site & Photo Merchant partners, Post-Production, Product Design, and Digital Design teams
  • Communicate clearly cross-functionally to ensure assets are compelling, on-brand, on-deadline, and efficiently project-managed
  • Project manage delivery schedules and milestones for creative development, modeling/rendering, image outputs, and production timelines
  • Collaborate with product designers, photography, post-production, and merchant teams for asset approvals
  • Attend corporate creative meetings to maintain alignment with business goals and creative direction

Research & Creative Development
  • Research and compile inspiration/references for Photo, CGI, Render, and AI creative planning
  • Research photography, styling, interiors, art/design trends, talent, vendors, and best-in-class partners
  • Stay current on emerging AI tools, creative technologies, and competitive landscape
  • Bring cost-effective creative ideas and solutions while supporting asset development and brand growth
