Develop and optimize shader networks and reusable materials, collaborate with modeling, lighting, and look-dev teams, meet production deadlines, mentor junior artists (senior), and contribute to tooling and workflow improvements.

Coordinate production schedules, track assignments, manage reviews/dailies, support artists and supervisors, troubleshoot playback issues, prepare status reports, and monitor outsourced deliveries to keep a CG animation pipeline on schedule.

Manage scheduling and production tracking for a 2.5D/3D episodic animation series: map realistic schedules, track artist progress, flag and solve bottlenecks, supervise coordinators, run efficient dailies, maintain ShotGrid data, and manage client deliveries and reviews while protecting crew well-being.

Serve as an empathetic HR partner handling employee relations, performance management, full-cycle recruitment and onboarding. Maintain HRIS records and compliance (Payworks), run ATS pipelines (JazzHR), support studio facilities and security access, and ensure a safe, welcoming hybrid Vancouver studio environment.
