Remote 3D Modeler (Full-Time/Contract)

About the role

We are looking for a highly creative and detail‑oriented Remote 3D Modeler to turn 2D concepts into high‑quality 3D assets. You will work with a globally distributed team, collaborating closely with Art Directors, engineers, and designers to deliver immersive digital projects.

Key responsibilities

• Design and build high‑quality 3D models (organic and hard‑surface) from concept art, sketches, and reference material.
• Create realistic or stylized textures, UV maps, materials, and lighting to enhance visual appeal.
• Optimize models by reducing polygon counts while maintaining aesthetic quality for real‑time performance.
• Coordinate with design, animation, and engineering teams via Slack, Zoom, and project‑management tools.
• Iterate on models, textures, and renders based on stakeholder feedback.
• Maintain organized folder structures, clean UVs, and clear asset versioning on cloud servers.
• Stay up‑to‑date with industry trends, new software, and modern rendering techniques.

Required profile

• 3‑5 years of professional experience in 3D modeling, texturing, and rendering with a strong portfolio.
• Ability to work independently, manage your own schedule, and communicate effectively in a remote environment.
• Exceptional eye for form, scale, color, proportion, and spatial relationships.
• Access to a robust remote‑friendly workstation capable of handling complex rendering tasks.

Required skills

• Advanced proficiency with Blender, Autodesk Maya, 3ds Max, Cinema 4D, or ZBrush.
• Experience creating clean UV unwrapping and applying photorealistic texture maps.
