The 3D Animator will create high-fidelity, cinematic animations that communicate complex scientific and technical concepts through compelling visual storytelling.

  • Translate complex engineering or scientific concepts into clear visual narratives 

  • Iterate efficiently based on creative and technical feedback 

Required Skills:

  • Strong portfolio demonstrating cinematic 3D animation and visualization work

  • Experience working across the full 3D pipeline: modeling, texturing/shading, lighting, rigging, animation, rendering, and compositing

  • Proficiency with tools such as Unreal Engine, Blender, Maya, and/or After Effects

  • Ability to produce high-quality animations both independently and within collaborative pipelines

  • Strong sense of motion, timing, lighting, and cinematic composition

  • Comfort working from storyboards, pre-vis, or animatics to final delivery

Desired Skills:

  • Experience working with CAD files and converting them into production-ready 3D assets

  • Background animating mechanical systems, robotics , or engineering processes

  • Experience creating space, planetary, or scientific visualizations

  • Familiarity with real-time rendering workflows (e.g., Unreal Engine pipelines)

  • Experience collaborating with scientists, engineers, or technical subject-matter experts
