What is a Full Time 3D Props Modeler?

A Full Time 3D Props Modeler is a professional who creates three-dimensional models of objects, or 'props,' used in video games, movies, animation, and other digital media. Their job involves designing, sculpting, and texturing various items such as furniture, vehicles, weapons, or everyday objects to be used in virtual environments. These artists typically work closely with concept artists, animators, and environment artists to ensure the props fit the project’s style and technical requirements. Working full time means they are employed as regular staff rather than as freelancers or contractors.

What are some typical challenges faced by 3D props modelers working in a full-time studio environment?

Full-time 3D props modelers in studio settings often encounter challenges such as balancing creativity with strict technical specifications, managing tight production deadlines, and adapting to evolving project requirements. Collaboration with other departments, such as animation and texture artists, requires strong communication skills to ensure assets are both visually appealing and optimized for performance. Additionally, staying updated with the latest 3D modeling software and workflows is essential to remain efficient and meet industry standards.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Full Time 3D Props Modeler, and why are they important?

To excel as a Full Time 3D Props Modeler, you need strong proficiency in 3D modeling, texturing, and digital sculpting, usually demonstrated by a portfolio and a relevant degree or equivalent experience. Mastery of industry-standard software such as Autodesk Maya, Blender, ZBrush, and familiarity with game engines like Unreal Engine or Unity is commonly required. Creativity, attention to detail, and effective communication are vital soft skills for collaborating with art teams and meeting project goals. These competencies ensure high-quality, visually compelling props that fit seamlessly within interactive or cinematic environments.

  • Define and enforce asset standards for modeling, UVs, materials, naming conventions, LODs, and optimization
  • Create and refine photo-realistic 3D props and materials that meet both artistic and technical requirements
  • Build scalable pipelines for asset ingestion, review, iteration, and deployment into a custom web based platform and the Unreal Engine
  • Partner with internal visualization, engineering, and product teams to ensure assets integrate cleanly into production environments
  • Identify automation opportunities and leverage AI-assisted workflows to improve velocity without sacrificing quality
About You
You're a systems thinker brings strong game development experience, has shipped major projects, and understands how to turn real-world products into performant, reusable digital assets at scale.
You have:
  • 5+ years in game development or real-time production managing outsourced art production at scale
  • Expert knowledge utilizing Unreal Engine Editor
  • Professional experience utilizing Maya, Zbrush, Adobe Photoshop, and Substance Painter/Designer
  • Proven experience leading complex asset initiatives independently with strong ownership and a high quality bar
  • A track record of building or improving structured, scalable asset pipelines and asset standards
  • Experience developing automation or AI-enhanced production tools
  • Exceptional attention to detail--you work fast and accurately
  • Passion for architecture and interior design with a deep understanding of real-world materials, manufacturing logic, and construction details
Working at Higharc
Higharc has been remote first since our founding in 2018. We offer flexible hours so you can do your best work without missing out on life. Higharc offers competitive salaries with significant equity, in a fast-growing, well-funded company.
Personal healthiness is an important value for us- we provide comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage, with unlimited PTO, and meaningful maternity/paternity leave to all U.S based employees that are full-time. You'll also have access to other big-company benefits such like short and long-term disability plans and a 401K. Haven't worked remotely before? We provide a stipend to create the ideal home office.
