Collaborate with artists, developers, and production teams; adapt VFX assets for in-engine use; build Blueprints and editor tools; improve performance; and support modeling, texturing, look development, and lighting best practices.

Develop and maintain Python and PySide tools for 2D VFX workflows, including compositing, paint, roto, editorial, and review. Integrate machine learning solutions, Nuke APIs, media-processing tools, and open-source VFX frameworks into production pipelines. Collaborate with supervisors and global pipeline teams to resolve workflow bottlenecks, maintain software libraries, support testing and documentation, and mentor junior team members. Preferred experience includes ComfyUI, containerization, render farms, web development, CI/CD, ShotGrid, databases, and generative AI workflows.
