Creative AI Student Role

Who we are

Lightricks is an AI-first company creating next-generation content creation technology for businesses, enterprises, and studios, with a mission to bridge the gap between imagination and creation.

At our core is LTX-2, an open-source generative video model built to deliver expressive, high-fidelity video at unmatched speed. It powers both our own products and a growing ecosystem of partners.

The company is also known globally for pioneering consumer creativity through products like Facetune, one of the world’s most recognized creative brands, which introduced AI-powered visual expression to hundreds of millions of users worldwide.

We combine deep research, user-first design, and end-to-end execution - from concept to final render - to bring the future of expression to all.

About the Creative AI Track

Creative AI sits between Product, Marketing, and R&D. We explore advanced AI capabilities and turn them into meaningful, usable, high-quality creative experiences.

Some teams focus more on product-facing AI experiences (shaping how technology feels inside our tools). Others focus on marketing innovationת creative automation and enabling partners and clients to get the most out of our AI capabilities.

As a student, you will join one of our Creative AI teams based on your strengths and interests. Your manager will introduce you to the team’s workflow, tools, and business needs.

Across all teams, the common thread is the same:
You don’t just use AI tools - you shape how they work.

Why is this role special?

• Real exposure to production-grade generative AI systems
• Work at the intersection of art, code, product, and research
• High ownership and fast iteration
• Freedom to experiment and bring new ideas
• Direct impact on how a global creative company uses AI internally and externally

What you will be doing

You will join one of our AI-driven Creative teams across Product or Marketing. Your manager will introduce you to the team’s workflows, tools, and business objectives, whether that means shaping product-facing AI features, building creative infrastructure for marketing, creating AI-powered marketing assets, or experimenting with new generative capabilities around our models. Based on the team’s focus and current priorities, your day-to-day work may include:

AI Experimentation & Prompt Logic

• Design prompt structures and system logic that translate ideas into high-quality visual outputs
• Experiment with image and video generation models
• Improve results through parameter tuning, workflow optimization, or LoRa training
• Evaluate outputs with a strong aesthetic and brand-sensitive eye

Creative Prototyping & Tool Building

• Build internal mini-apps, scripts, or lightweight tools
• Rapidly prototype using AI-assisted coding tools (Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot, etc.)
• Connect and orchestrate APIs (OpenAI, Gemini, Claude, fal.ai, Replicate, etc.)
• Develop and experiment with ComfyUI workflows and custom nodes
• Think like a tool-maker - design solutions that scale and empower others, not just one-off outputs.

Automation & Creative Infrastructure

• Improve workflows for designers, marketers, and video teams
• Integrate AI automations into creative pipelines
• Support product or marketing releases by solving technical-creative challenges
• On some teams, serve as a technical AI advisor: helping creative partners, sales, or business development teams get the most out of our generative models

Research & Exploration

• Explore emerging GenAI tools and models
• Benchmark quality, usability, and creative potential
• Identify opportunities to raise the bar for polish and control

Creative Marketing Design 

• Create AI-powered video content for marketing campaigns, product showcases, and social channels
• Integrate generative AI tools directly into production workflows to produce scalable, high-quality assets
• Edit short-form and mid-form video optimized for engagement and retention

Your skills and experience

You might be a strong fit if:

• You’re currently pursuing a degree that combines design and technology, such as Visual Communication & Computer Science, or a similar interdisciplinary program, bringing both creative and technical expertise and you have at least one full year of studies ahead.
• You are deeply curious about AI and creative technology
• You enjoy building, experimenting, and understanding systems
• You have strong visual sensitivity and can critically evaluate creative outputs
• You are comfortable moving between creative thinking and technical execution
• You are not intimidated by new tools or technical environments

Technical background (strong advantage)

• Python and/or JavaScript
• Experience with AI-assisted coding tools
• API integrations
• ComfyUI workflows
• Stable Diffusion or video generation models
• Background in video, motion, VFX, or interactive media
• Adobe AE and Premiere experience

Coding experience is a strong advantage, but what matters most is your ability to think technically and creatively at the same time.

What to include in your application:

In addition to your CV, please include:

• A portfolio (mandatory) showing creative thinking and hands-on experimentation
• At least one project that meaningfully integrates AI into the creative process
  (prompt design, workflow building, scripting, parameter tuning, model experimentation, etc.)
• A short explanation of one project:
• What problem did you encounter?
• What did you build or experiment with?
• How did you solve it?

Projects can come from school, personal work, hackathons, or side experiments. Depth and process matter more than quantity.

Why join us:

We’re here to push the boundaries of what’s possible with AI and video - not for the buzz, but for the craft, the challenge, and the chance to make something genuinely new.

We believe in an environment where people are encouraged to think, create and explore. Real impact happens when people are empowered to experiment, evolve, and elevate together.

At Lightricks, every breakthrough starts with great people and a collaborative mindset. If you're looking for a place that combines deep tech, creative energy, and zero buzzword culture, you might be in the right place.

We got you covered!

We empower employees with cutting-edge tools and learning opportunities to grow and succeed through workshops, access and training on platforms, subscriptions, and clear guidelines for responsible AI use.

We offer Car-to-go subscriptions and run daily door-to-door shuttles from several locations in central Israel, plus free parking and train-station pickups.

We’re proud to have 2 chef-led restaurants on site by the legendary Machneyuda Group (yes, that Machneyuda!), plus a bakery nestled in the heart of our office, filled daily with the scent of fresh pastries.

Short Q&A

Is this a design role?

Not in the traditional sense. This role focuses on shaping AI-driven creative systems and outputs, not designing product screens. That said, a strong eye for design and visual capabilities are essential.

Do I need strong coding experience?

Coding is a strong advantage, but curiosity, experimentation, and comfort with technology are just as important.

Do I need to show AI work in my portfolio?

Yes. At least one project should demonstrate meaningful integration of AI into the creative process.

Can projects be personal or experimental?

Absolutely. We value initiative and experimentation, not only formal coursework.
