Role and responsibilities;

As a Pipeline Technical Director (Pipeline TD), you will be responsible for ensuring the
smooth running of the tools, software and workflows used on our award-winning VFX and
Feature Animation shows. You will be providing face-to-face technical support and assistance
to artists, as well as developing new tools and scripts - predominantly in Python - to meet
the specific show requirements.

Our talented Pipeline TDs are highly technical and demonstrate an aptitude for creative
problem-solving. You will be regularly required to:

• Provide technical advice and support for artists

As well as being able to demonstrate technical skill and initiative, you will need to be an excellent communicator - your ability to accurately and succinctly communicate between technical developers and non-technical artists will help you thrive in this role.

Our Pipeline TDs not only produce excellent work, but they are also inspirational mentors and coaches to the more junior members of the Pipeline team. This ranges from formal guidance - generating tutorials and teaching materials - to informal mentoring on a
day-to-day basis, and you will be supported in this role by our Pipeline Supervisors.

Above all, you will be at the centre of some of the most exciting VFX and Animation work on projects ranging from blockbuster epics to television dramas, working with some of the most talented individuals in the industry. You will be in a fantastic position to develop your leadership skills and enhance your skills as a tool developer in a collaborative, show-facing environment.
