Hero Environment & Asset Creation While leadership is a primary focus, you will remain hands-on with “Hero” builds. These are the centerpiece environments—complex, shot-ready scenes that require a mix of modular kits and bespoke custom elements.

Data Integration: Ability to process and utilize on-set data, including Lidar and photogrammetry, to build accurate environment foundations. Scripting & Automation: Proficiency in Python or MEL to build custom tools or improve existing environment workflows. Communication: Strong verbal and written English skills are required to effectively coordinate with global departments and mentor local talent.
