About the role

We are looking for a skilled graphics engineer with expertise in modern C++ and GPU programming, a strong mathematical foundation, and an expert understanding of computer graphics.

Responsibilities

  • Design and build high-performance graphics components—rendering kernels, geometry processing operators, and supporting systems.
  • Develop robust production-quality pipelines that integrate with data pipelines, generative models, and artist-facing applications.
  • Collaborate closely with graphics experts, generative AI researchers, and infrastructure engineers to enable new creative capabilities and push the boundaries of what AI-empowered 3D pipelines can achieve.
  • Work across GPU clusters, cloud environments, and local DCC tools to ensure seamless interoperability and scalability.
  • Translate creative requirements into technical implementations.
  • Contribute to internal tooling, demos, documentation, open-source initiatives, or technical reports that elevate Meshy’s graphics capabilities.

Requirements

  • Expert-level C++ and GPU programming skills, with a strong ability to write high-performance, memory-efficient code.
  • A solid mathematical foundation with a deep understanding of computer graphics—either rendering, geometry processing, or both.
  • Hands-on experience building production-grade graphics systems, such as rendering engines, geometry pipelines, asset tools, or similar large-scale systems.
  • A strong engineering discipline—clean code, reproducible results, rigorous profiling, and sustainable system design.
  • A working knowledge of major DCC tools (Houdini, Blender, Maya), including experience developing scripts, plug-ins, or custom tools within these environments is a plus.
  • Experience in AAA game development, VFX pipelines, or other high-end 3D production environments is a plus.
  • Demonstrated contributions to open-source graphics projects or publications in top-tier CG venues (SIGGRAPH, etc.) are pluses.
