The role:

  • Keeping your setups clean, readable and production-friendly.

Must have:

  • 3 years production experience (minimum).
  • Strong Houdini skills across the usual FX toolsets (Pyro, FLIP, RBD, particles, etc.).
  • Comfortable owning your work and managing your time.
  • A good eye for what makes FX feel right in feature animation, not just technically correct.

Nice to have:

  • VEX and/or Python knowledge.
  • Familiarity with Maya.
  • Feature or high-end episodic experience.

Details:

  • Level: Junior / Mid / Senior
  • Contract: ASAP – Feb 27
  • Salary: Negotiable
  • Whilst these are fully remote positions, due to the way this project is funded candidates MUST be physically based in the UK or EU to be eligible and a preference will be given to UK-based candidates.
  • Please note that due to the extremely high number of applications we receive we are not able to reply to unsuccessful candidates.
