CG GENERALIST — SURFACING & LOOK DEVELOPMENT
Full Dome / Immersive Media Production • Remote • Dublin-Based Production • Immediate Start through November
Algorithm is a Dublin-based production company creating immersive media for hemispherical Full Dome
projection. We are looking for a mid-level CG Generalist with a specialism in surfacing, look development, and
rendering to join us immediately on a contract through early November. Working under the Digital Imaging
Supervisor, you will be responsible for establishing and maintaining the visual quality of assets and environments
across the production — ensuring everything holds up under the scrutiny of a large-format immersive screen.
For questions and consideration, please email CV and Reel if available to jobs@algorithm.ie
Responsibilities
- Lead surfacing and look development for characters, assets, and environments across the production.
- Build and maintain shaders and materials in Redshift, establishing a consistent visual language that serves
the project’s aesthetic. - Work closely with the Digital Imaging Supervisor to define and uphold the look of the production from asset
through final render. - Set up and execute lighting and rendering for environments and asset-heavy shots, optimising for quality
and render efficiency. - Collaborate with the broader CG team on asset integration, ensuring surfaces, materials, and environments
read correctly in context. - Maintain clean, well-organised scene and asset files; adhere to production naming conventions and handoff
standards. - Contribute generalist CG support across other areas of the pipeline as capacity allows.
What You Bring
- 3–5 years of CG production experience in animation, VFX, or immersive media.
- Strong proficiency in Autodesk Maya, with particular depth in surfacing, asset work, and environment
assembly. - Demonstrable Redshift expertise in shading, look development, lighting, and rendering — a portfolio
showing environment and asset work is essential. - A sharp eye for material quality, surface detail, and how assets read under varied lighting conditions and at
large scale. - Comfortable working as a generalist beyond your specialism — able to contribute across the pipeline when
needed. - Reliable and self-directed in a remote environment; able to take direction well and adapt to evolving
production needs. - Prior dome or wide-format experience is not required.
