Python developer – CG Tools (Maya)

About the role

We are looking for a CG Tools Developer to join a team working on large-scale 3D content production systems used by a global product with millions of users.

This is a hands-on engineering role where you’ll design, improve, and stabilize the tools that power complex 3D workflows — from digital models to final visual outputs.

What You’ll Do

• Build and evolve a Python-based tools ecosystem used in 3D content workflows.
• Develop and enhance Maya plugins for scene construction and asset export.
• Design and improve 3D asset pipelines (import/export, transformations, multi-source integration).
• Integrate tools with external systems and cloud services (via APIs).
• Work on real-world engineering challenges: understanding and improving existing systems, optimizing workflows, and making them more robust.
• Contribute to scalable, maintainable solutions used daily by internal teams.

What We’re Looking For

• 6 + years of professional experience.
• Strong Python development experience.
• Hands-on experience with Maya plugin development (Python API; MEL/C++ is a plus).
• Experience building desktop applications (Qt / PyQt / PySide).
• Solid understanding of 3D asset pipelines and workflows.
• Experience integrating with REST APIs / external services.
• Ability to work autonomously and navigate complex technical systems.

Nice to Have

• Experience with 3D formats (USD, FBX, or other XML/JSON-based formats).
• Familiarity with cloud services integration (AWS or similar).
• Exposure to rendering pipelines or CG production workflows.

Why Join

• Work on systems that power high-scale 3D production pipelines.
• Solve real engineering problems, not just build from scratch.
• Have direct impact on tools used daily by production teams.
