Creative Technologist
About the role
The Creative Technologist will support the Android Brand and Google Play Creative team by building the tools, workflows, demos, and prototypes that help creative ideas get stronger and move faster. This role has two connected parts. First, you will help improve the team’s creative process by building internal tools and AI-enabled workflows for briefing, ideation, prototyping, review, production, localization, and scale. Second, you will help turn Google product capabilities into campaign ideas, product demos, prototypes, and consumer-facing stories. You will work closely with creative leads, brand marketers, designers, writers, PMMs, producers, product managers, engineers, and external partners to make ideas tangible.
What We Are Looking For
We are seeing a Creative Technologist who is excited by emerging technology and can help the Android Brand and Google Play Creative team move faster, think sharper, and make more original work by turning emerging technology into useful tools, demos, prototypes, and creative workflows. This role sits between creative, product, and technology. You will help articulate campaign ideas, translate product capabilities into clear consumer stories, and make those ideas tangible. The right candidate is part creative thinker, part technical maker, part systems builder, and part AI craftsperson. You should be able to move quickly across AI tools, Figma, lightweight code, APIs, no-code/low-code platforms, and production tools to help teams see what is possible and make stronger creative decisions.
Responsibilities
- Build internal tools, workflows, templates, automations, and prototypes that help the creative team brief, ideate, develop, evaluate, produce, localize, and scale work more effectively.
- Translate product capabilities and emerging technologies into clear campaign ideas, consumer stories, demos, and product storytelling opportunities.
- Prototype ideas quickly across AI tools, Figma, lightweight code, APIs, no-code/low-code platforms, apps, interactive experiences, product demos, and creative systems.
- Partner with creative, marketing, brand, PMM, and product teams to ensure work is grounded in real capabilities, product accuracy, user trust, privacy, safety, and brand standards.
- Identify practical ways AI can create efficiencies across briefing, ideation, prototyping, production, testing, localization, campaign development, and creative review.
- Define what a prototype or experiment is meant to prove, evaluate what was learned, and recommend whether an idea should be scaled, refined, or killed.
- Stay close to emerging creative technology, AI tools, interaction models, and production methods, and translate them into practical experiments that raise the team’s creative and technical ambition.
Qualifications
- Minimum qualifications: Bachelor’s degree or equivalent practical experience. 8+ years of experience in creative technology, prototyping, product innovation, AI-enabled production, or a hybrid technical-creative role.
- Demonstrated fluency with AI tools and emerging creative technologies, with the ability to apply them to prototypes, demos, workflows, creative development, or campaign ideas.
- A portfolio or work samples are required, including examples of apps, tools, prototypes, AI experiences, campaigns, demos, interactive products, and/or emerging technology. Candidates should be able to explain their role, process, technical approach, and creative impact.
