The posting

ZeroSpace is a digital agency and production studio specializing in emerging technologies and real-time 3D for virtual production, CG animation, and immersive experiences. Our unique facility houses the largest fixed-install LED volume on the East Coast, industry-standard Vicon motion capture systems, and a state-of-the-art volumetric capture studio. We're an interdisciplinary team of technologists and artists where technical innovation meets creative vision. Our clients include major film studios, Oscar-winning directors, and the biggest brands in the world.

The Role

We're seeking a versatile Technical Director to lead our production technologies, drive innovation, and oversee the technical aspects of our projects. You'll be responsible for managing content production using real-time engines and AI tools, immersive experience development, and virtual production pipelines. You have both the imagination and drive to explore new approaches, as well as the experience and judgment to implement production-grade solutions.

In this role, you will:

  • Lead and mentor a team of technical artists and developers across CGI, virtual production, and immersive experience projects
  • Collaborate with creative directors, producers, and project managers to ensure technical feasibility and set project timelines
  • Participate in client meetings to gather requirements and educate clients on technical possibilities and limitations
  • Lead the design and implementation of interactive and immersive experiences using game engines, web technologies, and sensor-based inputs
  • Provide technical leadership for cutting-edge capture technologies including volumetric capture and motion capture
  • Oversee 3D content loading and testing for film/TV virtual production shoots with our team of experienced LED stage technicians and Disguise operators
  • Develop and maintain documentation for workflows and best practices while establishing internal standards
  • Troubleshoot and resolve technical issues in real-time during productions and coordinate post-production deliverables

About you:

  • 5-10+ years of proven experience leading technical teams and productions
  • Comfortable with the unknown - you like solving difficult problems and pulling off first-of-its-kind executions with emerging technologies
  • Able to articulate technical concepts and complex processes across teams and to clients
  • Able to evaluate technical solutions for visual quality and user experience. Strong taste, sense of user empathy, and ability to collaborate with creatives
  • Excellent leadership, project management, organization, and problem-solving skills
  • Proficiency with Unreal Engine development using C++ or Blueprints
  • Proficiency with Python programming
  • Knowledge of network protocols (REST APIs, WebSockets, OSC)
  • Knowledge of SQL and relational databases
  • Familiarity with 3D content creation workflows, data formats (FBX, USD, etc.), and common DCC applications (Maya, Houdini, Blender, etc.)
  • Familiarity with TouchDesigner and media processing tools (ffmpeg, ImageMagick)
  • Well-organized with excellent asset management practices and version control experience (Git, Perforce, Unity VCS)

Nice to Have:

  • Experience with volumetric capture and motion capture technologies
  • Understanding of photography and digital cinematography including lens optics, exposure, camera technology, and color science
  • Experience with cloud computing e.g. AWS
  • Experience with generative AI pipelines for content creation

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
