Summary
Alexis Rolland is a seasoned AI and product leader with a decade of experience building R&D programs and generative AI tooling for the games industry, most recently directing Ubisoft La Forge in China and now product at ComfyUI. He has led multidisciplinary teams to prototype practical systems—from internal generative content platforms and image-generation models trained on proprietary game assets to narrative assistants and neural rigging—bridging academic research and ship-ready prototypes. Comfortable at the intersection of research, engineering and design, he defines strategy, scopes projects and contributes to architecture and implementation. Based in Shanghai, he pairs strong product instincts with hands-on technical leadership and a track record of turning novel ML research into tools that measurably boost artists’ and designers’ workflows. An understated strength is his cross-cultural fluency and language background, which has enabled long-term R&D partnerships across Asia and Europe.
