About the Role
My client is hiring a Machine Learning Engineer to join a small but impactful team at the intersection of deep learning, computer vision, and real-time 3D systems.

This is a chance to push the boundaries of digital human performance, runtime tracking, and facial capture—projects that directly power high-end experiences.

You’ll collaborate closely with a world-class VFX team, helping automate and optimize artist pipelines while building cutting-edge ML models that work with 3D data and real-world runtime systems.

What You’ll Be Working On
Designing and training deep learning models end-to-end
Experimenting with GenAI architectures (VAEs, Diffusion Models, Transformers)
Building real-time tracking systems for devices
Working with 3D geometry, meshes, and tools like Blender
Supporting automation efforts to streamline creative production pipelines

What We’re Looking For
Solid experience with deep learning and computer vision
Proficiency in C++ (especially for low-level or runtime systems)
Familiarity with GenAI and recent ML research trends
Strong Python skills
Exposure to 3D environments, animation, or game engines
Comfort working in cross-disciplinary teams (engineering x creative)
A portfolio of personal or open-source projects (GitHub is a plus)

Nice to Have
Engineering background with a transition into ML/AI
Prior work in gaming, VFX, graphics, or interactive media
Understanding of facial capture, digital humans, and animation tech

Interview Process
Intro Call (30 mins): CV walkthrough + high-level tech screen
Technical Interview (1 hour): Engineering, ML, and applied problem-solving
Final Onsite (4–5 hours): Meet the team, dive deeper, enjoy lunch
