About the job

posted this job on 01/21/08

Our studio produces a successful 3D animated television show for a
children's television network. We are seeking an experienced and
resourceful Java programmer (3D experience not required) who also enjoys
learning, planning and interacting with users. This is a position with
enormous growth potential for the right candidate.

The 3D process is quite complicated and requires tracking of art and
virtual assets, related versions, connections between types of files,
etc. Our studio works with (and ships digital assets to and from) four
different overseas studios. The job entails helping to automate this
work - to provide tools to artists as well providing accurate reporting
(on progress, inventory, shipping, etc).

The environment is friendly, informal, energetic, creative, and
extremely hardworking. We're looking for a practical and good-humored
person who genuinely enjoys not only technical problem solving but also
some interaction with end-users. The job is a programming position, but
at times you will need to do training/support or meet with a department
to help spec out or revise a tool.

Please have a Computer Science degree (or equivalent experience) as well
as professional programming experience (preferably in Java), and be
generally well-rounded with your technical skills. Familiarity with the
following would be great: GDI (www.cirquedigital.com), XML, Eclipse,
Subversion, 3D animation / Maya / Melscript, Image and Video processing
(Quicktime, FrameCycler), Excalibur component framework (distributed
