  • Build custom integrations between different software packages and production tools
  • Create utilities for batch processing, file conversion, and quality assurance
  • Optimize performance for real-time applications and large dataset processing
  • Document tools and provide training to production teams

About you:

  • 3-5+ years of experience solving technical problems in games, 3D animation, immersive experiential, or other visual media
  • Strong programming skills in C++ and scripting languages (Python, JavaScript, TypeScript) in production environments / pipelines
  • Experience with Unreal Engine development using both C++ and Blueprints
  • Experience with REST APIs and real-time data streaming protocols (OSC, WebSockets)
  • Knowledge of SQL and relational databases
  • Experience with 3D animation workflows and data formats (FBX, USD, etc.)
  • Familiarity with TouchDesigner programming and media processing tools (ffmpeg, ImageMagick)
  • Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work independently on diverse technical challenges
  • Well-organized and experienced in documentation, asset management, and version control (Git, Perforce, Unity VCS)
  • Excellent written/verbal communication skills and ability to collaborate with technical and creative teams

Nice to Have:

  • Experience with volumetric capture technologies
  • Knowledge of DCC applications (Maya, Houdini, Blender, Omniverse) and their APIs
  • Familiarity with virtual production workflows, LED volume technology, and Disguise
  • Background in digital cinematography and color science
  • Experience with cloud computing and distributed processing systems
  • Knowledge of generative AI pipelines for image/video processing (superresolution, background removal)

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.
