The Role

As a Render Technical Director at DNEG, you will play a hands-on role in ensuring that the rendering and lighting tools, software, and workflows used across our award-winning VFX and Feature Animation productions run smoothly and efficiently. Working under the guidance of our Render Supervisors, you will provide front-line technical support to lighting artists, troubleshoot rendering issues in live production scenes, and contribute to the tooling and testing frameworks that underpin DNEG's render pipeline.
This is an excellent entry point into rendering technology at a world-leading visual effects company. You will be embedded within the RenderTech team — working alongside Render Supervisors, Shader Writers, and senior TDs — and gain direct exposure to industry-leading renderers, USD-based pipelines, and the full breadth of DNEG's production and technology ecosystem. You will bring technical curiosity,



a collaborative mindset, and a genuine enthusiasm for solving problems in a fast-paced creative setting.

- Help identify and resolve inefficiencies in lighting and rendering workflows, working with Render Supervisors to implement improvements.
- Act as a clear point of communication between technical developers and non-technical artists, translating issues and solutions accurately between both audiences.
