About this role

We’re looking for a Senior 3D Artist with a strong creative eye and a proven ability to deliver high-fidelity content in PlayCanvas and Unity. You’ll be hands-on with the tools, crafting visually striking 3D assets and CG animations that bring worlds to life.

We’re looking for someone who can translate iconic IP into captivating, playable experiences through thoughtful design, technical finesse, and a sharp sense of visual storytelling.

You’ll join a creative team building the next generation of interactive fan experiences. Working with autonomy, you’ll shape the visual quality of projects while collaborating closely with other artists and engineers who share your focus on craft, polish, and exceptional execution.

Those Beyond is a technology company creating gamified experiences that build lasting fandoms. We craft experiences that support the launch of blockbuster films, television, and game studio releases, giving fans new ways to connect, play and share in the worlds they love.

We emphasise craft and collaboration, but above all, Those Beyond is defined by the people who make it all happen. We value creative freedom, curiosity, and the kind of problem solving that transforms ambitious ideas into beautiful, performant experiences.

We’re a team of designers, writers, and engineers backed by $8m in venture capital from Europe’s leading funds, building at the intersection of technology, creativity, and fandom.

Responsibilities

  • Adapt your workflow to meet the creative and technical needs of each project - from stylised to realistic IP-based worlds.

  • Collaborate closely with designers and developers to ensure 3D models integrate seamlessly into gameplay and the overall visual direction.

Requirements

  • Strong portfolio showcasing 3D modelling and texturing for real-time applications (ideally games or interactive experiences).

  • Proficiency in industry-standard 3D software (Blender preferred)

  • Understanding of low-poly modelling, UV unwrapping, and texture optimisation for performance.

  • Experience exporting and preparing assets for web-based engines, ideally PlayCanvas (or similar engines like Unity or Unreal).

  • Experience implementing assets in-engine, demonstrating a good grasp of real-time lighting, materials and scene composition.

  • Ability to work in small, cross-functional teams on fast-moving creative projects.

Nice-to-haves

  • Experience building interactive 3D scenes in PlayCanvas or other WebGL environments.

  • Experience building UI.

  • Experience of rigging and animation.
