Technical Artist - Real-Time 3D / Web 3D

About the Role

We are looking for a Technical Artist to join our team and work on high\-quality interactive real\-time 3D experiences. The ideal candidate should combine a strong visual eye with a practical understanding of real\-time rendering, asset optimization, PBR materials, lighting and technical 3D workflows. This role sits between 3D art and technology. You will work closely with 3D modelers, texturing artists and developers to ensure that assets look premium while remaining efficient for real\-time applications. Key Responsibilities · Prepare and optimize 3D assets for real\-time applications. · Optimize geometry, topology, materials and textures while maintaining high visual quality. · Create and refine PBR materials for surfaces such as paint, metal, glass, plastic, fabric and other materials. · Set up and fine\-tune lighting, HDRI/environment lighting, reflections, shadows and cameras. · Optimize UVs, textures and texture resolutions for real\-time use. · Prepare and export optimized assets using GLB/glTF and other relevant formats. · Work with LODs, mesh optimization, texture compression and baking workflows. · Collaborate with 3D modelers, texturing artists and developers to establish an efficient asset pipeline. · Troubleshoot visual and performance issues in real\-time 3D scenes. · Balance high visual realism with smooth performance across devices. · Support developers with shaders, materials and rendering\-related requirements. Required Skills · Strong knowledge of Blender, Maya, 3ds Max or equivalent 3D software. · Good understanding of real\-time 3D workflows. · Strong understanding of PBR materials and physically based rendering. · Good understanding of lighting, reflections, shadows, HDR environments and cameras. · Experience optimizing models, meshes, UVs and textures. · Understanding of texture baking and optimization. · Familiarity with real\-time rendering performance constraints. · Ability to troubleshoot both artistic and technical issues. · Strong attention to visual quality and detail. Preferred Skills · Experience with Three.js, WebGL or browser\-based real\-time 3D. · Experience preparing and optimizing GLB/glTF assets. · Knowledge of Draco, Meshopt, KTX2/Basis or similar optimization techniques. · Basic understanding of GLSL and shaders. · Experience with Unreal Engine, Unity or other real\-time engines. · Knowledge of Substance 3D Painter/Designer. · Experience with LOD systems and performance profiling. · Experience in interactive 3D, product visualization, digital twins, games or similar real\-time projects. Experience 2\-5 years preferred. Candidates with less experience but a strong real\-time 3D portfolio will also be considered. Portfolio Requirement Please share examples of your best real\-time 3D work, including lighting/material studies, optimized assets, interactive experiences, game environments or other technically challenging 3D work.
