- Build and host simple full-stack web and interactive applications for client projects.
- Configure and manage network infrastructures supporting installations and digital experiences.
- Maintain a centralized code repository and module library to standardize production and improve efficiency.
- Oversee hardware system design, including audio-visual, lighting, sensors, and mechanical components (or at least help to oversee and orchestrate technical partners in charge of these components).
- Produce detailed technical specifications and manage external interactive suppliers as needed.
2. Innovation & R&D
- Create proof-of-concept demos showcasing new technology (e.g., generative AI workflow design, LLMs, Comfy UI, third-party API integration).
- Experiment with emerging tools and integrate them into project pipelines to enhance creative possibilities.
- Contribute to development and launch of new digital products, documenting case studies that highlight innovation.
- Identify opportunities to leverage technology for new services and business leads.
3. Team Collaboration & Knowledge Sharing
- Assist in recruiting, onboarding, and mentoring technical staff.
- Document and standardize workflows, tools, and best practices for in-house production tasks.
- Collaborate closely with designers, producers, and partners to align technical solutions with creative vision.
- Support cross-team proposals by providing technical rationale, estimated scopes, and high-level architecture.
4: Increase In-house Production Capabilities
- Grow the portion of production budget kept in-house.
- Establish a strategy for production components to achieve targeted production profit from in-house tasks.
- Implement a cost-tracking system to monitor in-house vs. outsourced production costs.
5: Build & Optimize Internal Production Capacity
- Recruit and onboard new technical staff.
- Develop, document, and train teams on standardized workflows for touchscreen and visualization interactives.
- Establish a centralized code repository and module library.
- Demonstrate measurable improvement in production efficiency through standardized processes.
6: Drive Innovation & Quality in Digital Experiences
- Launch innovative digital products with case studies.
- Generate new paid projects from inquiries on innovation.
- Achieve recognition for technical innovation in a digital experience.
