**Category**: Design & Multimedia
**Subcategory**: 3D Models
**What You Need**: 2 to 6 pieces
**About The Role**:
We are a direct-to-consumer e-commerce furniture brand producing a high volume of product visuals that need to look realistic - not like CGI.
We are looking for a production-ready 3D artist who can model clean furniture assets and render photorealistic scenes on a consistent weekly cadence.
This is not a concept art role - the focus is on repeatable, high-quality production work.
**What You Will Do**:
- Create accurate 3D furniture models from CAD, 2D drawings, dimensions, and photo references
- Build production ready materials and shaders for upholstery, leather, wood, metal, glass, stone
- Light and render photoreal packshots and lifestyle scenes that match our brand style
- Assemble scenes with correct scale, camera lens realism, and believable styling
- Maintain and organize our 3D asset library with clear naming and version control
- Support designers with modeling and rendering requests, including fast revisions
- Deliver files in a format our team can reuse and update later
**Core Deliverables (per week, based on workload)**:
- New models or model updates for new launches
- Packshot renders on white and transparent background
- Lifestyle scene renders with consistent lighting and composition
- Material library updates and reusable scene templates
- Source files plus final exports
**Tools & Technical Requirements**:
- Advanced in 3Ds Max with V Ray or Corona
- Strong poly modeling and clean topology
- Advanced material creation, UVs, and texture workflows
- Strong HDRI and studio lighting setups
- Post production in Photoshop, plus basic color and realism polish
- Ability to work from real world measurements and hit scale accuracy
**AI Expectations**:
- We expect you to use AI tools daily to move faster without sacrificing quality.
- You should be comfortable using AI for reference gathering and mood boards
- Scene and camera composition ideation
- Material and texture iteration workflows
- Quality checks and consistency checks across a batch
- Writing clear handoff notes and change logs
- Automating repetitive steps where possible
**Nice To Have**:
- Furniture experience
- AR or VR pipeline familiarity
- Substance painter or designer
- Marvelous designer for soft goods or draping
- Basic blender fluency if needed for handoff
**What Good Looks Like**:
- Your renders hold up next to product photography
- Materials look right at close zoom
- Wood grain direction is correct
- Metal roughness looks real
- Lighting feels like a real studio
- You deliver on time and you do not miss details
**Minimum Qualifications**
- 2 plus years producing photoreal product renders
- Portfolio with furniture or hard surface product work
- Can handle multiple projects and tight deadlines
- Strong file hygiene and self management
**Working Style**
Async is fine. You must overlap 2 to 3 hours per week with Pacific Standard Time for reviews.
You must be able to take feedback and iterate fast.
**Compensation**
Monthly retainer or hourly, based on output and skill.
Include your expected rate and availability.
**How to apply**
Send:
- Portfolio link with 5 to 8 relevant examples
- Your tools and workflow
- Your rate and weekly capacity
- Confirmation you can share source files
- The AI tools you use today and one example of how AI improved your speed or quality
**Paid Test**
Finalists will complete a short paid test
- Model one furniture piece from drawings and photos
- Deliver 2 packshot angles and 1 lifestyle render
- We will review accuracy, realism, speed, and file cleanliness
**Screening Questions**
- Which is your primary renderer, v ray or corona, and why
- Share a project where you modeled from 2D drawings and had to hit exact dimensions. What was your process
- Show one render you are proud of. List your lighting setup, materials workflow, and post steps
- Walk us through one recent project where you used AI. What did you use, what did it replace, and what was the result
