At Eyeline, technology is the engine that powers our creative excellence. Our Technology Operations team provides the structure, training, and project management for our people to do their best work. We build critical skills and standardize global delivery to ensure every technical initiative drives predictable, high-impact results. Sitting within the Learning and Development team, you are a vital technical specialist in our Hyderabad studio. Reporting to the Senior Manager of Learning and Development, you will act as a strategic conduit between global technology initiatives and the local artist community.

You will drive the transition of our talent from manual workflows to advanced, system-based thinking, with a core emphasis on our Generative AI initiatives, production templates, and proceduralism. By collaborating with our VFX Trainer in Vancouver and global Technology teams, you will produce and deliver the high-level technical content that empowers our artists to master next-generation workflows. This involves providing hands-on, in-the-room mentorship to build strong relationships with our local artist community while utilizing our global skill matrix to identify and address training discrepancies. Additionally, you will guide the development of regionally adapted materials and modules to ensure effective asynchronous training is accessible to the entire studio. In this high-visibility role, you are the technical eyes and ears on the ground, ensuring that regional requirements and feedback directly inform our global technology roadmap and shared standards.

Success in this role is defined by being an active, respectful, and valued member of the Global L&D team, contributing to collective goals and upholding a culture of collaborative excellence while serving as a trusted, empathetic listener within the Hyderabad office. Within your first year, you will have measurably accelerated the "time to first task" for new hires through a structured local curriculum, driven high adoption of Generative AI toolsets in daily production workflows, and achieved a level of technical autonomy for the site that reduces the support burden on global teams.

Key Responsibilities

• Implement Global Standards: Execute training in alignment with global pipeline logic and established studio standards.

• Partner with Leadership: Collaborate with site leadership to prioritize L&D initiatives and champion a culture of continuous learning and upskilling.

• Curate Technical Onboarding: Manage and curate the technical integration of new hires into Eyeline’s ecosystem in Hyderabad.

• Document Workflows: Build and maintain accessible, well-documented training resources and process documentation.

• Provide “Ground Truth” Insights: Communicate production-floor friction points and regional requirements to global technology teams.

• Support Tool Rollouts: Partner with Technology and Research teams to provide L&D support and introduce new tools and technologies to production.

• Facilitate Knowledge Transfer: Identify and elevate local technical innovations for potential global adoption.

• Report Progress: Maintain regular communication with global L&D leadership regarding site-specific milestones, outcomes, and needs.

Qualifications

• Technical Expertise: Strong background in VFX production with deep creative and technical capabilities (aligned with a 70/30 technical-to-creative balance).

• Generative AI Experience: Hands-on experience with advanced image creation tools and ecosystems (e.g., ComfyUI, InvokeAI, etc.) and techniques such as video-to-video restyling with keyframe references.

• Proven Trainer: Track record of producing and delivering technical training in a major studio environment or equivalent, ideally within the Indian VFX landscape.

• "Creator" Mindset: Focus on building and producing training assets and materials, not just managing the training process.

• Cultural Bridge: Ability to navigate and bridge cultural nuances to deliver engaging and effective training for the Indian talent pool.

• Adaptability: Proactive approach to problem-solving and the ability to work effectively within production deadlines.

• Communication: Excellent people skills and the ability to translate complex VFX tools and workflows into clear documentation and training sessions; strong communication with senior L&D management as an active, respectful, and transparent team member.

• Tool Proficiency: Experience with industry-standard VFX software (Houdini, Maya, Nuke) and documentation platforms such as Confluence.
