What is the difference between Internship Computer Graphics Engineer vs Junior 3D Artist?

AspectInternship Computer Graphics EngineerJunior 3D Artist
Required CredentialsEnrolled in or recent graduate of Computer Graphics, Animation, or related programsPortfolio showcasing 3D modeling and animation skills, often with relevant coursework
Work EnvironmentTech companies, gaming studios, animation firms, often in collaborative teamsCreative studios, gaming companies, advertising agencies, often in artistic settings
Employer & Industry UsageUsed in tech, gaming, and entertainment industries for developing graphics and visual effectsCommon in entertainment, gaming, and advertising industries for creating visual content

While both roles involve computer graphics, an Internship Computer Graphics Engineer focuses on technical development and programming, often in a collaborative tech environment, whereas a Junior 3D Artist emphasizes artistic skills in modeling and animation. The internship provides foundational experience, preparing for a full engineering role, while a Junior 3D Artist typically works on visual content creation.

Job description

About The Role

We're looking for a Graphics Engine Software Engineer to join our growing team to help us build out the core functionality of our next-generation CAD Graphics Engine! In this role, you'll work as part of a small team of Graphics Engineers to design, prototype and implement features of our engine in order to enable users with faster and more reliable geometry and modeling capability of their hardware designs. Our CAD Engine is GPU optimized and creates boundary representations versus meshes, so the ideal candidate will have familiarity with CAD software, specially B-Rep/NURBS modeling. This is a great opportunity to apply your expertise in 3D graphics to help us disrupt the hardware design industry, working alongside a hands-on, collaborative startup team!

What You'll Do
  • Develop and maintain CAD modeling algorithms (editing brep data structures, developing topological algorithms, etc)
  • Develop and maintain rendering code within the graphics core of the CAD engine
  • Implement and continuously improve various low-level and complex architectural systems that interface with Graphics APIs, modeling, rendering, and proceduralization pipelines
  • Analyze code for performance and optimization opportunities as it relates to load times, memory usage and platform-specific performance issues
  • Become an expert on our product strategy and customer use cases in order to provide the best solutions to our growing customer base
  • Document functionality and implementation details for production and other Engineers
What You'll Need
  • B.S. in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent professional experience
  • Proficiency with C++14/17
  • Substantial experience with 3D graphics, rendering, and modeling algorithms
  • Substantial experience with 3D Graphics APIs such as Vulkan or OpenGL
  • Experience with GPU computing APIs such as CUDA
  • Strong familiarity of the inner workings of CAD 3D editors such as Blender, Maya, Solidworks, AutoCAD, or equivalent.
  • Familiarity with Git
  • Experience working with both low-level and visualization-focused aspects of a graphics pipeline
