3D Artist – Architectural Visualization (WebGL)

We are looking for a talented 3D Artist with 48 years of experience in architectural visualization and building modeling. The ideal candidate should be capable of creating high-quality 3D models optimized for WebGL-based platforms, including interactive web applications, virtual environments, and real-time rendering systems.

This role requires a strong understanding of architecture, lighting, textures, and real-time optimization techniques to deliver visually appealing and performance-efficient 3D assets.

Key Responsibilities

1. 3D Modeling & Visualization

Create high-quality 3D models of buildings, interiors, landscapes, and urban environments.

Develop architectural visualizations based on CAD drawings, floor plans, and design references.

Produce realistic textures, lighting, and materials for architectural assets.

2. WebGL Optimization

Optimize 3D assets for real-time rendering in WebGL environments.

Reduce polygon counts while maintaining visual quality.

Create LOD (Level of Detail) models for performance optimization.

Ensure compatibility with WebGL engines such as Three.js, Babylon.js, or Unity WebGL.

3. Asset Creation & Export

Prepare models for various export formats suitable for Web-based applications, such as:

glTF / GLB

FBX

OBJ

USDZ (optional)

Ensure models are properly UV unwrapped and texture-ready.

4. Lighting & Rendering

Create realistic lighting setups for architectural scenes.

Generate real-time and pre-rendered visualizations.

Work on PBR (Physically Based Rendering) materials.

5. Collaboration

Work closely with:

Front-end WebGL developers

UI/UX designers

Architects and product teams

Convert architectural concepts into interactive digital experiences.
