Salary: $1,200 per month

Job Overview:

We are seeking a detail-oriented 3D Modeler to support a project focused on preparing a large product library for a new website. In this role, you will optimize existing 3D models, create new models where needed, and convert files into web-ready formats for an online 3D viewer. The ideal candidate has strong 3D modeling experience, is comfortable working independently in a remote environment, and can deliver high-quality, optimized assets within project deadlines.

This is a remote, project-based position expected to last 6 to 8 weeks, with the possibility of additional work based on project needs and performance.

Organize Rhino layers by material and component according to established standards.
Model missing components required for the online 3D viewer based on provided specifications.
Create complete 3D models for products that currently exist only as 2D drawings.
Prepare geometry, materials, and surfaces for texture mapping and web visualization.
Optimize 3D models for real-time web viewing while maintaining high visual quality.
Convert and export finalized models as .glb files using required export settings.
Maintain an organized folder structure and file naming convention for all completed assets.
Participate in twice-weekly progress meetings to review completed work, discuss priorities, and address questions.
Collaborate remotely with the project team while managing tasks independently and meeting project deadlines.

Required Skills & Qualifications:

Proven experience in 3D modeling for product visualization or similar applications.
Proficiency in Rhino (Rhinoceros 3D) is strongly preferred.
Experience preparing and optimizing 3D assets for real-time web visualization.
Familiarity with .glb (GL Transmission Format) and other web-based 3D file formats.
Ability to create accurate 3D models from 2D technical drawings.
Strong understanding of geometry optimization, materials, UV mapping, and texture preparation.
Excellent attention to detail and ability to maintain consistent modeling standards.
Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage large asset libraries efficiently.
Ability to work independently in a remote environment while communicating effectively with the team.
Ability to meet deadlines and adapt to evolving project priorities.
