We are looking for an all-round 3D Designer who can work across different types of 3D modelling projects — from creative and detailed models to practical, production-ready designs for 3D printing.
Please read the description carefully:
This is a production-oriented 3D design role, not a conventional VFX or animation role.
What We Are Looking For
The ideal candidate should have strong 3D modelling fundamentals and be comfortable working with different modelling approaches.
Required / Strongly Preferred
- Strong knowledge of Blender
- Good understanding of 3D modelling, topology, proportions and form
- Ability to create detailed and accurate 3D models from:
- Images
- References
- Sketches
- Real-world objects
- Existing 3D models
- Ability to modify and optimize existing 3D models
- Understanding of dimensions, scale and real-world measurements
- Ability to think about how a model will actually be manufactured or 3D printed
- Good attention to detail
- Ability to work independently and take ownership of assigned projects
- Willingness to learn new software and workflows
Additional Software Skills
Knowledge of any of the following will be an advantage:
- ZBrush
- Autodesk Maya
- 3ds Max
- Rhino
- SketchUp
You do not need to be an expert in every software listed above. However, we are looking for someone who is comfortable learning and adapting to different 3D workflows.
CAD Designing – Important Learning Requirement
The candidate will be expected to learn CAD modelling as part of the role.
However, this position is not currently a CAD-heavy role. But as we are a 3D printing based company, CAD knowledge will be developed progressively and will be required whenever a project involves functional, dimensionally accurate or engineering-oriented components.
The candidate should therefore be comfortable with:
- Measurements and dimensions
- Basic geometry
- Precision-based modelling
- Understanding real-world objects and their construction
- Learning CAD software and technical modelling concepts
- Moving between creative 3D modelling and functional/technical modelling
Training and guidance will be provided where required.
Role & Responsibilities
- Create high-quality 3D models for Knowhow3D's projects
- Create models from photographs, references, sketches and physical objects
- Prepare and modify models for 3D printing and physical production
- Work on both detailed/creative models and practical/product-oriented designs
- Optimize models based on printing requirements
- Make design changes based on project feedback
- Maintain accuracy, scale and proportions
- Learn and apply CAD modelling wherever required
- Collaborate with the team to understand project requirements
- Handle multiple projects and prioritize work according to deadlines
- Take responsibility for completing assigned projects on time
- Continuously improve modelling quality, speed and efficiency
- Assist with other design-related requirements as the business/project demands
Important: Understand the Nature of This Role
This role is primarily about 3D modelling for real-world products, prototypes, models and 3D printing.
It is not a VFX, animation or CGI visualization position.
Skills such as lighting, advanced rendering, animation, compositing and VFX are not the requirements of this role.
We would rather have a designer who is exceptionally good at modelling, problem-solving and preparing models for physical production than someone who is focused on creating cinematic renders or VFX shots.
Who Should Apply?
This role would suit someone who:
- Enjoys creating things in 3D
- Has a genuine interest in 3D modelling
- Likes solving modelling problems rather than simply following tutorials
- Can work from incomplete or imperfect references
- Has an eye for proportions and detail
- Is interested in how digital models become physical objects
- Is willing to learn CAD and technical design
- Can adapt between different modelling software
- Can handle both creative and technical projects
- Is comfortable receiving feedback and making revisions
- Takes ownership of deadlines and project delivery
- Is willing to put in additional effort when required to complete an important project or meet a committed deadline
What We Value More Than Software Knowledge
Knowing software is important, but we value these qualities even more:
Problem-solving ability
3D thinking
Attention to detail
Learning ability
Speed of execution
Accuracy
Responsibility
Ownership of projects
Growth Opportunity
The role provides exposure to a wide range of 3D design and 3D printing projects.
The designer will have the opportunity to develop skills across:
Creative 3D Modelling → Product Modelling → 3D Printing → CAD → Functional Design → Design for Manufacturing
The objective is to develop the designer into an all-round 3D design professional capable of handling a project from reference to final 3D-printable model.
Language Requirements
- Hindi – Required
- English – Required
Working Style
- Full-time
- Office-based / as per company requirements
- Occasional extended working hours may be required when project deadlines or urgent deliveries demand it
- Ability to manage multiple projects and meet committed timelines is essential
Application
Candidates should share their portfolio / previous 3D modelling work - (we wont be interested in your texturing or rendering projects) along with their resume.
Portfolio is strongly preferred and will be an important part of the selection process.
