Work at the frontier of visual intelligence

We're building the foundational infrastructure that transforms how the world is seen and understood.

Our founding team pioneered Latent Diffusion and Stable Diffusion - breakthroughs that made generative AI accessible to millions. Today, our FLUX models power creative tools, design workflows, and products across industries worldwide.

Our FLUX models are best-in-class not only for their capability, but for ease of use in developing production applications. We top public benchmarks and compete at the frontier - and in most instances we're winning.

If you're relentlessly curious and driven by high agency, we want to talk.

With a team of ~50, we move fast and punch above our weight. From our labs in Freiburg - a university town in the Black Forest - and San Francisco, we're building what comes next.

Open Positions

We have offices in San Francisco and Freiburg, Germany as well as a presence in London.  We prefer to be in-office, because that’s how we do our best work, but also because we enjoy being together.
