Noxx is hiring on behalf of an AI company

About the Client

Is building an AI-native platform for games, IP creation, and 3D content production.

Our mission is to reimagine creative pipelines—characters, worlds, and interactive experiences—by deeply integrating large-scale generative AI into real production workflows.

In this role, you will work at the intersection of LLMs, multimodal generation, and game/creative production, driving research that directly ships into products.

Responsibilities

• Conduct research and development on Large Language Models (LLMs) and multimodal models (text, image, 3D)
• Research and integrate image generation models (e.g., Diffusion, Transformers, NeRF / 3DGS) with LLMs
• Design AI systems for game development and creative production pipelines
• Design, implement, and operate LLM-based agent systems, including:
• Tool use, planning, memory, and multi-agent architectures
• Stabilization and optimization for real-world production environments
• Build evaluation frameworks and metrics for LLMs and agents
• Offline evaluation, online evaluation, and human-in-the-loop assessment
• Reproduce, extend, and apply ideas from recent research papers
• Collaborate closely with engineering and product teams to bring research into production

Required Qualifications

• PhD (completed or in progress) in Computer Science, Machine Learning, or a related field
• Strong background in LLMs or generative models
• Solid implementation skills in Python and PyTorch (or equivalent frameworks)
• Experience or strong understanding of bringing research code to production-quality systems
• Ability to read papers, implement them, and translate research into real products

Preferred Qualifications

• Deep expertise in image generation and multimodal generative models
• Diffusion models, VAEs, Transformer-based architectures
• Strong interest in creative domains and games
• Game development, 3D content, IP creation, UGC platforms, creative tools
• Hands-on experience with LLM agents in production
• Designing, deploying, and iterating on agent systems in real environments
• Practical experience in evaluation and measurement
• Designing quantitative metrics for LLMs and agents
• A/B testing, logging, quality monitoring
• Experience with large-scale distributed training or inference optimization
• Open-source contributions or research publications (top-tier venues not required)

Nice to Have

• Experience bridging the gap between research and production
• Ability to define ill-posed problems and drive them to solutions
• Strong product sense and user-centric thinking, especially for creators
• Familiarity with game engines (Unity, Unreal) or DCC tools (e.g., Blender)
• Experience working in startups or small, fast-moving teams

Why this Company

• Research that directly impacts shipped products
• Work at the frontier of LLMs × image generation × 3D × agent systems
• A rare opportunity to build globally competitive technology from Japan’s IP and game culture
• A team that values real-world impact over papers alone
