About the role
We have an opening for a technical, hands-on 3D Cloud Graphics tech leader.
The leader will drive an ambitious technology roadmap --- to engineer, enhance, and operate automated, cloud-based 3D conditioning and render pipelines (dataflow, batch, and on-demand) for processing & ray-tracing of PBR 3D graphics models. The role requires broad 3D graphics foundations, excellent hands-on full-stack systems engineering skills, and experience managing technical projects across geographies.
Responsibilities
In this role, you will architect, build, coordinate, and drive major tracks of 3D Cloud Graphics innovation. You will:
Strategically build & manage a team of 3+ technical staff + affiliated colleagues
Ship best-in-industry 3D experiences for use on mobile devices, web, and in-store
Own & operate Cloud Graphics production systems like a mission-critical business
Drive quality and on-time delivery through automation & wise management
Develop & run 3D asset baking & conditioning pipelines for 1,000,000+ PBR LODs
Develop full-stack tools & data pipelines to automate asset production at high scale
Exceed 3D business KPIs (size, coverage, processing speed, features, visual quality)
Develop high-speed, photorealistic cloud ray tracing pipelines for mass-scale use
Use combinatorial variants to render rooms & AI ground truth training data
Develop strategies to solve business problems & unlock new opportunities
Push the envelope of real-time realism with enhanced materials, lighting & engines
Build, coach, mentor, and motivate a tight-knit, ambitious, cross-continent team, building trust, camaraderie, and effectiveness between our teams in Silicon Valley, Europe, and Shanghai.

Hands-on technical skills
Degree in Computer Science or highly-related field
Highly-productive Python systems programming skills, in a cloud environment.
Solid theory and practice of real-time & ray-traced 3D texture-mapped graphics
Experience with 3D asset conditioning software (e.g. Simplygon, RapidCompact)
Experience using Blender modeling & scripting, and Cycles for ray-trace rendering
Confident with texture-mapped materials, u-v mapping, atlassing, baking, AO
BONUS: Experience with 3ds Max, V-Ray, RTX, Unreal Engine, a plus
BONUS: Experience with neural, plenoptic inverse rendering a plus (NeRFs, Splats)
Leadership skills
Hands-on engineering leader, with ability to develop, analyze, and review PRs
Proven track record successfully managing 3+ person software engineering teams
