3D Product Visualization Artist

About NextPixel Inc.: NextPixel Inc. is a Canadian creative and technology company. We are currently in “stealth mode” developing a new, ambitious line of high-end personal accessories. We are looking for a true creative partner to help us define the visual identity of this new brand from the ground up.

The Opportunity: This is not a typical rendering gig. You will be a founding creative force, working directly with the company principal to design and visualize a new product line set to compete in the luxury market. Your work will be the first thing our customers see and will be central to our marketing and launch.

What You’ll Do (Responsibilities):

• Create photorealistic 3D models, textures, and final renders of our new products.
• Develop high-impact 3D animations showcasing intricate product mechanics and their interaction with light.
• Collaborate on the industrial and graphic design of product components.
• Masterfully simulate high-end materials, including brushed and polished metals, sapphire/glass, and exotic leathers.
• Iterate on designs based on creative feedback.

What We’re Looking For (Requirements):

• An outstanding portfolio is your primary application. It must showcase photorealistic renders of complex products (e.g., jewelry, electronics, mechanisms, or similar high-detail items).
• Expert-level in 3D modeling, texturing, lighting, and animation using software like Blender, Keyshot, Cinema 4D, V-Ray, or similar.
• Proficiency in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop for creating textures and graphic elements.
• An obsessive eye for micro-details and a deep understanding of how light and materials interact in reality.
• A reliable and strong communicator (proficient in English) who can work independently to meet deadlines.

Bonus Points (Highly Valued):

• A personal passion for horology (watches), jewelry, or high-end mechanical objects.

What We Offer:

• The opportunity to be a key creative partner on a new, high-end brand launch.
• Consistent, long-term project-based work.
• Creative freedom and a collaborative environment.
• Competitive project-based compensation.
