  • Experience managing and optimizing CAD data for real-time applications

  • Strong skills in modeling, texturing, shading, and material setup

  • Familiarity with additional tools (Substance, Quixel, Showcase/VRED, Unity-3D) is a plus

  • Strong communication skills and the ability to work independently and in a team

  • Fluent in English, both written and spoken

  • A collaborative, open-minded approach and commitment to delivering high-quality work
