3d jobs in Germany

Our client is a dynamic, independent game development studio dedicated to creating high-quality online multiplayer experiences. Focused primarily on PC platforms—with plans to expand into mobile—the studio brings beloved entertainment IPs to life through immersive and globally resonant content. Currently working on an ambitious MMORPG rooted in the Digimon universe, they collaborate with passionate fan communities and an international team to push the creative and technical boundaries of gaming.

As the Art Lead / 3D Pipeline Coordinator, you’ll lead a small but highly skilled team in the development of 3D game assets for a large-scale MMORPG. In addition to your leadership role, you’ll be hands‑on in one of the key areas of production—Modeling, Rigging & Animation, or VFX—serving a dual role as both a strategic leader and a critical production contributor. You will shape the 3D art pipeline, guide the team in best practices, and ensure that all visual assets are delivered to spec, on time, and optimized for in‑engine use.
