At Stellar, we aim to build a studio where people actually want to work.

We value honesty, creativity, and looking out for one another. The Opportunity: We are expanding our team and looking for talented Modeling Artists at the Junior, Mid, and Senior levels to join us on a premium streaming series for Marvel Animation. In this role, you will be bringing wildly creative designs to life.

In this role, success looks like: Asset Creation & Optimization: * Confidently work from production designs to create a wide variety of digital assets, including characters, sets, props, vehicles, and both organic and hard-surface elements. * Critically analyze pre-viz and production designs to create highly optimized assets that perfectly balance aesthetic beauty with the technical requirements of the pipeline. * Bring a passion and drive to elevate the show's modeling standards to the highest creative and technical level possible. Technical Problem Solving & Pipeline: * Utilize your hands-on, deep knowledge of Maya tools to work efficiently and cleanly. * Collaborate closely with downstream departments (Rigging, Surfacing) to proactively troubleshoot and solve potential problems early in the pipeline before they become bottlenecks. Collaboration & Accountability: * Act as a self-motivated, task-driven professional who consistently meets team and production deadlines. * Be a collaborative team player who communicates openly and works well with Supervisors and Team Leads. (Seniors will be expected to help mentor and guide Junior artists). * Actively participate in team, departmental, and production meetings or screenings. The Requirements Must-Haves: * Experience (Choose your level): * Junior: 1–2+ years of production experience. You have a solid grasp of Maya, a strong portfolio, and are eager to learn and grow. * Mid-Level: 3–5+ years of production experience. You can hit the ground running, tackle complex assets, and require minimal supervision. * Senior: 5+ years of production experience. You are an expert at optimizing the most complex hero assets, anticipating pipeline bottlenecks, and are comfortable mentoring junior artists. * Artistic Eye: A keen eye for form, shape, and texture, paired with flexible, "outside-the-box" creative thinking. * Core Tools: A solid understanding and working experience with Maya, ZBrush, and Photoshop. * Mindset: A learning-centered attitude and a passion for strong design and technical execution. * Eligibility: Legally eligible to work in British Columbia, Canada. Nice-to-Haves: * Experience or understanding of additional software, including Substance Painter, Substance Designer, Blender, or Redshift. * Comfort working within a Linux operating system. Why Join Stellar? * Flexible Environment: We offer a flexible hybrid schedule that will vary with project and team requirements. * Comprehensive Benefits: Extended health benefits. * Growth: Professional development support to help you stay ahead of tech and creative trends. * Culture: A collaborative, ego-free environment where technical expertise fuels creative magic. Competitive salary range: $57,000 - $85,000, based on your experience and skills. At Stellar Creative Lab, we believe diversity and inclusion are key to creativity and collaboration.
