About the Role

We're looking for a talented and passionate Staff Digital Sculptor to join our forward-thinking team. In this role, you'll play a key part in bringing next-generation hardware designs to life—bridging the gap between visionary industrial design and production-ready reality through world-class 3D modeling and visualization, and influencing the technical direction of the team.

What You Will Do

  • Partner closely with industrial design, engineering, and manufacturing teams to translate design intent into precise, high-quality 3D CAD models.
  • Apply advanced surfacing techniques to sculpt complex forms that maintain aesthetic excellence and support manufacturability.
  • Develop high-fidelity visualizations and photorealistic renderings that clearly communicate product concepts and features.
  • Leverage your deep understanding of design principles and production methods to ensure models are optimized for prototyping and manufacturing.
  • Iterate quickly and thoughtfully based on feedback, with a keen eye for precision and detail.
  • Contribute to the evolution of our design language through craftsmanship, creativity, and technical mastery.
  • Contribute to the development and implementation of new tools, workflows, and technologies to enhance modeling and visualization efficiency and quality.

This is a hybrid-remote role, with the expectation to work from our San Francisco offices at least half-time.

Requirements

  • 10+ years experience in advanced 3D CAD tools, including Autodesk Alias and Siemens NX.
  • Expert level experience with Keyshot or similar rendering/visualization tools.
  • Strong familiarity with Substance or other material/texture creation software is a strong plus.
  • A solid foundation in industrial design principles and product development workflows, with an ability to anticipate and solve complex design challenges.
  • In-depth knowledge of manufacturing processes and their impact on 3D modeling and surface development, and the ability to proactively optimize designs for production.
  • Exceptional skill in creating highly detailed, accurate, and production-ready 3D models.
  • A comprehensive portfolio that showcases your mastery in 3D modeling, surfacing, and visualization for product design, demonstrating significant contributions to shipped products.
  • Strong experience preparing 3D models for rapid prototyping or tooling.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills—able to thrive in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment.
  • A passion for cutting-edge technology and designing products that make a difference in people's lives.
