Job description

We're looking for a CGI Artist who thrives at being both highly-creative and technical. You'll collaborate closely with fellow CGI Artists, Industrial Designers, and Program Managers to produce high-fidelity 3D assets, photorealistic renders, and captivating animations that will appear across our brand and marketing channels. You bring deep expertise in leading 3D modeling, rendering, and image editing software, and you thrive under tight deadlines without sacrificing quality. You're self-motivated yet collaborative, a strong communicator, and a sharp technical problem solver.
We're open to both full-time and contract opportunities.
Thuma's Headquarters is based in the historic Presidio neighborhood of San Francisco. The role involves four days in the office each week and occasional additional days as needed.
In recognition of the personal and professional benefits that team members gain from time spent together in person, we organize a range of events throughout each year designed to bring our entire team together!
You Will
  • Produce high-fidelity 3D materials and models of complex forms - including soft goods
  • Produce photorealistic renders and animations
  • Help streamline 3D pipelines and post-production workflows
  • Support storyboarding and image lists
  • Collaborate with render partners as needed
  • Manage external render projects as needed

This Might Describe You
  • You're deeply detail-oriented
  • Fluent in modern generative AI tools
  • Drawn to design and architecture
  • You work efficiently and independently
  • Push for quality without needing to be asked
  • You move fast and stay organized
  • Have strong problem-solving skills
  • Have strong interpersonal skills

What You'll Need
Your portfolio reflects an exceptional eye for craft - the kind of elevated, editorially-driven work that defines brands known for setting the visual standard. You understand what it means to produce imagery with real art direction behind it: considered, polished, and unmistakably intentional. That level of taste and execution is what you bring to every project.
Additionally:
  • 3+ years of experience as a CGI Artist
  • Proficiency in Blender or confidence in becoming proficient within a 2-month timeframe
  • Ability to design and execute compelling motion graphics
  • Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite
  • Strong color editing and correction skills
  • Experience using render farms
  • Skilled at working to a brief and hitting deadlines
  • Experience leading end-to-end 3D and 2D production workflows
  • A sharp eye for accurately scoping turnaround time

Why Join Us
  • 401(k): Participation in our 401(k) program with company matching up to 6% of your contributions.
  • Benefits*: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage with generous employer contributions, 100% paid parental leave, and company-sponsored One Medical and WellHub memberships.
  • Equity: Participation in employee stock option plan.
  • Flexible by Design: We operate with a high-performance mindset, paired with thoughtful flexibility-flexible hours, flexible PTO, and a hybrid approach that supports both focus and balance.
  • Time to Recharge: Enjoy 13 company holidays each year to rest, reset, and celebrate what matters most.
  • Employee Discount**: 40% off almost all Thuma products.
  • Cell Phone Stipend: $100 per month to support work-related phone use.
  • Commute Reimbursement: Up to $150 per month for commuting to our office.
  • Room Upgrade: A complimentary product credit upon joining, valued at up to $3,000.

** Some exclusions may apply
* Eligibility for compensation, benefits, and perks may vary based on employment status (e.g., full-time, part-time, temporary), work schedule, and applicable holiday policies, and are subject to the terms of the relevant plans and company guidelines.
$80,000 - $120,000 a year
Thuma provides an estimate of the compensation for roles that may be hired as required by state regulations. Compensation may vary based on (a) location, as Thuma factors in specific location when benchmarking compensation for most roles; (b) individual candidate skills and qualifications; and (c) individual candidate experience.
Additionally, Thuma leverages current market data to determine compensation, so posted compensation figures are subject to change as new market data becomes available. The salary, other compensation, and benefits information is accurate as of the date of this posting. Thuma reserves the right to modify this information at any time, subject to applicable law.
Who We Are
Thuma is a modern design company specializing in furniture and home goods. We believe simplicity is the ultimate luxury. That the details matter. And that good design is good hospitality.
We recognize that people come with a wealth of knowledge and are talented beyond the scope of a functional role. If this sounds like you, we encourage you to apply even if your experience doesn't precisely match our job description. We hire for integrity, initiative, collaborative spirit, open mindedness, and willingness to learn.
Thuma is dedicated to going above and beyond to bring people with diverse perspectives and unique experiences together to do great work. We strive to create a sense of belonging by creating an inclusive culture where everyone can be their authentic self and by treating each and every team member with kindness, equity, and respect, always.
