Job description

Position Overview

Designblendz is seeking a Real-Time Visualization Artist to join our growing visualization team. This role focuses on creating high-quality, interactive 3D environments using Unreal Engine, supporting both client-facing experiences and internal product development initiatives.

This position bridges traditional architectural visualization with real-time technology, requiring a strong eye for design, attention to detail, and an understanding of performance-driven workflows.


Key Responsibilities

  • Develop high-quality real-time environments in Unreal Engine for architectural projects
  • Translate 3D models (Revit, 3ds Max, etc.) into optimized real-time scenes
  • Apply lighting, materials, and post-processing to achieve photorealistic results
  • Optimize scenes for performance across desktop, mobile, and web-based platforms
  • Collaborate with visualization, architecture, and innovation teams
  • Support development of interactive experiences, including walkthroughs and client presentations
  • Maintain consistency with Designblendz visual standards and workflows
  • Stay current with emerging real-time rendering tools and techniques


Required Qualifications

  • 2–5+ years of experience in architectural visualization or real-time 3D production
  • Strong proficiency in Unreal Engine (Blueprints, lighting, materials, scene setup)
  • Experience with 3ds Max, V-Ray, or similar rendering tools
  • Understanding of real-time optimization techniques (LOD, textures, lighting, draw calls)
  • Strong composition, lighting, and material sensibility
  • Ability to work both independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced environment


Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with interactive elements and basic Blueprint scripting
  • Familiarity with Twinmotion, Enscape, or other real-time tools
  • Experience with VR/AR or pixel streaming workflows
  • Understanding of architectural drawings and design intent
  • Experience working in an architecture or AEC environment


What Success Looks Like

  • Real-time environments that match or exceed the quality of traditional renderings
  • Efficient conversion of models into optimized Unreal scenes
  • Consistent delivery of high-quality, client-ready interactive experiences
  • Contribution to evolving Designblendz real-time workflows and standards


About Designblendz

Designblendz is an architecture, interiors, and 3D visualization firm focused on bringing the built and virtual world together. We work across multiple markets and leverage emerging technologies to deliver high-impact design and visualization solutions.


Benefits and Perks

  • 9 paid company holidays
  • 11 vacation days annually (pro-rated based on start date)
  • 5 sick days annually (pro-rated), including care for family members
  • Partially subsidized medical, dental, and vision insurance ($300/month employer contribution)
  • Company-paid long-term disability insurance
  • Company-paid short-term disability insurance
  • Company-paid life insurance
  • 401(k) with up to 3% company match (eligibility after 6 months)
